Posted February 25, 200915 yr Can anyone help? I have a FZS 600 Fazer and the problem is that the rear brake pedal depresses very easy but seems to be little or no pressure. The brake works but only after max pressure with the foot. If I leave a weight on the pedal and put a bag over the reservoir (with lid off) will this work? Your expectingly Big Tom
February 26, 200915 yr Nope !!!!!!!!!!! The system needs a change of fluid and then bleeding,,,also check the condition of the brake pipe,if this is the original rubber item, then it may be time to change to a stainless braided line. If this doesnt work then you will need to overall the complete system, with new seals in both the master cly and caliper.
March 15, 200915 yr i have this same problem with my fzs600 caliper is seized and there is no preasure at all when pedal is pushed, so change the fluid and bleed first then replace the seal on caliper and cylinder, is this an easy job to do, and where is the best place to purchase the seals from? cheers
