MV AGUSTA R BRAKE PROBLEM #4

[@mymajorcompanynz]

Feel your pain.Never again am I buying an MV.As a new bike I owned a 2014 Dragster.what a disaster. 3 sprag clutches. 2 under warranty.I was loosing rear brake to spongeness.Higher dot racing fluid suggested which destroyed the brake cylinder seals.I moved the reservoir back away from motor to the rear more,(heat from motor possibly boiling fluid) put on a new cylinder and used dot 4 fluid.Fixed rear brake issue.

Shut bleed valve. Depress lever and hold. Crack valve open then shut. Release lever. Repeat. Add brake fluid as required.

Took mine out for its first ride, very vague rear brake then it worked for about 3 secs then its practically melted the rear hub, the pads were burned the disc looks shot. It's going back not sure what the future holds for it tbh. 19 bikes and 30yrs.most expensive thing over bought and lasted 17 miles.

[@kevinstanley8732]

u still under warranty ? they do say if you open the valves on the ABS trying to bleed it can sometimes create problems like you experiencing
