Hello and thanks in advance for reading and hopefully helping with my issue.
I'm new to the ownership of a deuce and in speaking to another local owner I've discovered that my brakes are not working as they should.
They've been this was since I bought it and I searched the forums but couldn't find the same issue so hopefully you can help.
My brake pedal is extremely hard to push. It does seem to brake well but the effort required is quite high. The other owner I spoke to (thanks Rob) said that they should feel similar to a car in effort. My brake fluid in the resevoir is good. There was a fluid leak on a front cylinder when I bought it (loose fitting). It feels to me like braking in a car when you've lost power assist.
Could it be air in the lines from the loose fitting or would that not affect the feel of the pedal? Airpack? If so, how can I check?
Thank you for your help again.
