Hi All
Just done a lot of work to the bike including a service, fitting heated grips and a USB charger, replacing tyres and lots more including cleaning the front caliper pistons and flushing through the brake fluid - the main reason for this last job was that the lever felt a bit spongy. However when I put the bike back together and took it for a run I've got a problem with the ABS. When I pull the lever it pulses almost like the ABS is cutting in, and it does this at all speeds and no matter how much I pull the lever - if I deactivate the ABS everything works fine. The rear brake works fine with ABS activated or deactivated. Is there a special method to bleeding the front brake or has anyone any idea as to what the problem might be?
I've looked for anything obvious such as bare/chafed wires but can't find anything. Has anyone got any ideas? The bike is a 2007 X-Country.
Cheers
Rich
