No error codes so far

Your oil cooler needs a deep clean lol

Error codes can only come from servo motors. If you left the plugged in, there wont be any
 
Deep Cleaning is next on the list.

Servo cables are in

However the breaks have been bled, and still very spongy.

Have checked one side of the calipers and the back of the pads have oil on them that concerns me. They are new calipers from TAS racing...

I have however pulled the brake lever in and cable tied it back to see if there is any air. But having bled both Calipers and the master cylinder, and there are no bubbles.

Any pointers would be appreciated. Or should I start another thread? Help Amit [emoji23]

Thanks as always.

Try squeezing the rubber pipe that comes off the reservoir to the master cylinder, sounds daft but I had air in mine and the brakes would not bleed, little squeeze with the lid off and a tiny air bubble escaped, et voila sorted! Worth a try

can you define spongy ? is it spongy when you extend the lever far out ?
 
I've had it where it firmed up after a ride. Think it was the abs purging.

I'll give that a go now.

when I pull the brake in for the first/second time, it pulls closer to the lever. On the 3 attempt, the bit is better. However, if I leave it 5 mins and pull it in again, it feel like the 1st/2nd time when it pull in too far.

I'll put 2 armoured jackets and go for a small bimble, hopefully it will firm up. Let hope the ABS purging resolves it.

On a side note, the new noise coming out of the headers and the can puts a smile on my face :)

So just go out.


Brakes still spongy... after 4 miles the felt the lever lock. Pumped again and it released. A mile or so, noticed the ABS LIGHTS on.. any ideas please?

It?s not locking now but if not being used for minute or so, not get the initial bite, only at second attempt it?s what I would call normal.

Any suggestions please?

How's the reservoir? What does the lever locked mean? Locked on?

- Alex

The reservoir is fine. When it ?locked?, it did not move engage at all, its like it was welded in it?s natural position.
