So here's my sich, when i was up in Milwaukee for Mama Tried the other weekend my rear brake pads fell out of my caliper. Fast forward to this week and I put it all back together in my garage in Chicago. I put in a new pad pin and plug since they were also gone. I've done a manual bleed of my brakes, it seems like there's no more air bubbles coming out, but even after retopping the rear master cylinder a couple times the rear brake pedal is still feeling spongy and the rear pistons don't seem to be pushing against the pads. I just ordered a brake bleed kit to make it a little easier on me doing it myself but I'm not entirely sure bleeding my brakes any further is actually going to solve my problem. I have an '04 Sportster 883xlc and I'm looking for any suggestions on what to do. I'm hoping it's not somehting in the linkage, especially since everything seemed to be working properly when I was bleeding them but I can't say that with certainty.
If you live in Chicago and want to swing by to lend a hand then I'm all for it. I'm going to say I have a decent amount of tools that I should be able to take care of the problem in my own garage with a little brain help at least.
