You’re going to think this is weird.
ST on center stand. Squeeze the front brake lever, semi-Hard, hold it in place by wrapping a small bungee cord. For the next step you’ll need a weight or some sort “weights” to hang from the rear brake pedal. Needs to be heavy enough to keep the pedal down. Carefully open the tops of the master cylinder, and leave loose.
By this time you’re thinking... Rays off his rocker!
Consider that braking system in general have gotten very sophisticated & complicated. The process mentioned above allows minute air bubbles to rise and exit through the compensating port of the master cylinders. This will take about 24hrs.
Fairly simple to do, doesn’t cost anything, and there’s a good chance your brakes will feel better
