The CB1100 Community Forum

I changed the brake fluid on my 2014 CB1100 and the front brake lever has some travel but not as much as I think it should. It seems "tighter" than it should be.
Is that normal when put the fresh oil?
I checked the manual, which discusses the adjustment wheel (1-5) but this adjustment doesn't seem to help.
Any advice?

Normally when any vehicle gets a brake flush and bleed the system gets tighter. Especially if there was any air in the lines. Like my rear brake had from the factory.

yes bleeding the brake system will firm up the lever as air is purged from the system.

the adjustment wheel on the lever simply moves the lever closer or farther from the bar depending on rider preference.
