(the little one when you look in the reservoir) OR,(more likely) the lever isn't allowing the master cyl to return all the way. I have seen both situations before on other bikes, especially when a replacement lever was used. there needs to be a few thou of clearance between the lever and the piston on the master cyl (0.002"-0.005" minimally) or it will always have residual pressure that can cause this exact issue. 0.02
cool m in sc, makes a lot of sense (and I wouldn't have found that explanation). At the same time I wonder, could it also be that a quality problem (e.g. with none OEM pads) ?
