So I'm trying to get my front brake system bled, and I cannot get the pressure built up in the system to get the caliper to compress. I bought a brand new master cylinder, new braided lines, new pads, cleaned out the stock hose junction block, and rebuilt the old caliper. (1979 single front set up)
I seem to have the air out of the system, and I'm getting brake fluid through the line all the way to the down to the caliper, and out of the bleeder. Short of taking the caliper off and going through it again, am I missing something here?!?!
This is the last thing holding me up from getting the bike on the rode, I've been working non-stop for three months now and would love to take her for a test ride to see if I need to work on anything else before it's good to go!
As always, thanks in advance for any advice you might have ...
