Bleeding the front brake: lever distance from the bar

[b1k3rdude]

• This sounds a bit weird to me. How do you know this effect is actually taking place?
  
• As far as I know Fazers really do not have an issue with part worn pads.
  
• I suspect that you simply havn't bled the brakes successfully and need to try again.
  
• On some machines air bubbles get stuck in the banjo bolt next to the master cylinder.
  

Hi Phil

• Popped the pads out the pistons were only moving in and out after 5-10sec of pumping the lever, not progressively further out as normal
  
• I think you misunderstood me, I was saying the same thing as you - fazer done have issue with worn pads, I have even taken mine down to 1mm before changing on occasion
  
• The brakes were successfully bleed and there was no air in the system.
  
• That was the last thing I actually tried, before someone suggested the spring effect and bandits not liking pads that and even half worn.
