thanks mate

hi, everyone. my 04 montesa 315r does not have a rear brake pedal spring(that i can see). should it have one??? still works though cheers for any help bob

BRAKE NOW WORKS............. got it back home today from the bike shop. the mechanic could not fix it. took it all apart including the seals and pistons ang gave it a good clean.(was not that dirty though) rebuilt it and filled master cylinder, craked open bleed nipple and let it bleed with gravity. after sbout 3hrs of this and some normal pressure bleeding there was still NO pressure on the lever. i gave up trying and had a fag. bike had not been started for about 3 weeks, so i kicked her over and revved for a few minutes. ipulled the brake lever one more time........and felt pressure which built up each time i pulled it. now brake works better than ever....the vibrations from the engine revving must have freed some air from somewhere..i think?? anyway it works now. THANKS FOR ALL THE REPLYS, GREAT HELP, CHEERS ALL ROB X

thanks pete, have tried all that good stuff, but with no results. the bike is currently with a proper bike mechanic and he too is scratching his head at this problem. its very odd cheers ...rob

after bleeding my front brake for about two weeks now, i still can't get any pressure at the lever. the piston assey in the master cylinder is new, and every thing else appears good. fluid will go through the system , but with no build up of pressure on lever. its as if no fluid is being pushed at all. bike is an 08 rev3 270 anyone got any thoughts?????????? cheers for any help... rob

hi, all just packed in motocross after 35 enjoyable, but expensive years. nearly 40 now and have always fancied having a go at trials. bought myself a 2008 beta rev3 270, some say that it may be a bit mucch for a new trials rider , but after racing 450 mx bikes for last 5 years i think (hope) i'll be ok. looking to do some trials soon in the devon area. cheers rob
