I finally got a little time to fool with it today. Besides I’ve been riding without brakes my whole life. 😂 makes those hills harder to go down tho. Here’s what I got. If I pinch right or left side off at the t the open side is braking perfect. Brake lever has plenty pressure. But...without one side or the other clamped, my lever is very very weak on pressure. Any advice?

It gets hard when pinched. Then I’d hold it. Release pincher and loosen bleeder on right side. Then repeat and repeat. It had a little pressure but it’s like I lost it. It pressures good with line pinched but won’t build pressure without line pinched. Left side cylinders are moving but right side stopped moving.

Foreman 450 es. 03 model I picked up a few months ago. Got it on a deal but it hadn’t been rode a few years. New carb and battery got it running. Still got some things to work on. No cracked plastic. Replaced a few bearings and put a seat cover on it. Have a brand new top end on my shop table. These brakes, stupid question but as I pump and hold do I release bleeder valve? Or do I put cap on master cylinder? Or what.

Yes I replaced all cylinders and master cylinders. I probably messed up by tearing it all down at one time a couple days before parts came in and doing it all at one time. I can’t get the lever to pressure up. I obviously have a ton of air. I will try pinching line to be sure it’s not a defect in the master cylinder once I get off work. Haven’t thought about that. How would I get that much air out the quickest way without a vacuum?
