03 zx6r rear brake problem

[nathanie1]

my rear brakes on the bike suddenly stopped working. i was actually on my way to sell the bike today when i noticed. the brakes grab but with no pressure to stop or even slow down the bike. what could have went wrong because i have no idea what could have happened. the fluid levels are normal and there are no leaks. today was the first time i rode it in about 2 weeks. i parked it to sell it. any help would be greatly appreciated

proly got air in the line. Try bleeding it. Not sure how yours is configured but on my duc they put the bleeder in the worst spot, I've actually got to take the caliper off and turn it upside down (because air travels up).

Yup yup.. bleed those puppies! While you're at it you might try taking the glaze off the pads and then re-seat them in good/properly.

Had the same problem with the rear brake on my Duc at one point. Bled them, de-glazed the pads, seated them in and now it will lock up fairly easily if given too much pressure :oops:

GL!
