[Chief R.B.]

Hi all,

My 900ssie has just failed its mot due to the back brake not working - it has about 10% pressure - eek!.

I'm hoping it may just be air in the system as i don't normally use it ( could this happen??) but either way i have to bleed it and a mate suggested i reverse bleed it to see if theres air in the slave cylinder..

Would this be a good idea or has anyone got any ideas or little fixes that could source the problem or better still cure it without bleeding the system?

Thanks in advance
