Rear brake becomes ineffective after a period of time. The brake becomes soft, spongy and does not work properly. I've had the dealer check the brakes, bleed them, replaced the fluid and it will work ok for a short time but then the problem returns. The pedal needs a lot of pressure to actuate the rear brake and eventually it doesn't really work at all.

THE MOTORCYCLE'S REAR BRAKE IS ALMOST NON-EXISTENT. VERY "MUSHY" WHEN THE PEDAL IS PRESSED AND YOU MUST PRESS VERY HARD TO GET THE CALIPERS TO BITE THE ROTOR. THIS IS VERY NOTICEABLE DURING LOW SPEED RIDING.

REAR BRAKE IS WEAK, SOMETIMES FAULTY, SOMETIMES DEMANDING TOO MUCH PRESSURE TO START ACTING AND IT DOESN'T BRAKE STRONG ENOUGH.
