As per title , my rear brake pedal goes right down , with very minimal, usually no braking effect. Its happened four times now (One was an MOT failure "Excessive travel ")
(I suspect rear master cylinder failure, but hey, I'm an amateur spanner)
1200GSA. No fluid loss whatsoever ! Always fixed by bleeding both brakes and ABS unit (GS911)
1000 miles later, excessive travel issue starts again
So the bike goes into dealer, who understandably wishes to do their own documented bleed .
HOWEVER , I'm today told that they've "done a software update to give me more pressure "
Is there any way, whatsoever, that software can fix my recurring problem ?
They know that I'm stupid.
