Best of luck, Ichiban! Hope that solves your problems. And, may it be the only one you encounter on this bike!

May it be the last too, there are always a few defects in millions if you follow the six sigma philosophy, and I got the short end of that stick.

Thanks mate, I can't wait to ride the bike. All I can do now is polish her to the nines. Yes, I am bored.

Enjoy!

I have tried both front calipers and both have no fluid coming out! What the hell has happened any clues?
Never seen this on any bike I have owned.
Rebuild your master cylinder it is corroded inside

Art, if you look up a few posts you will see the dealer replaced his ABS unit and all was well.
