What owners report

2012-05-15, Service Brakes
WHILE TRAVELING APPX 30 MPH AND APPROACHING A TURN I APPLIED THE BRAKES FRONT AND REAR. THE FRONT BRAKE FAILED. I EXAMINED THE CABLE, MASTER CYLINDER AND BRAKE LINE AND FOUND NO PROBLEMS OR LEAKS. MASTER CYLINDER WAS FULL. I CONTACTED THE LOCAL SUZUKI MCY DEALER TO SEE IF THEY HAD SIMILAR PROBLEMS AND WAS ADVISED THEY HAVE. THEY BELIEVE A COMPLETE BRAKE FLUID FLUSH AND WRAPPING THE BLEEDER SCREW WITH TEFLON TAPE THEN THE SYSTEM IS REFILLED. THEY FURTHER ADVISED THIS HAPPENS ON BIKES THAT ARE NOT DRIVEN DAILY AND THE BLEEDER SCREW ALLOWS AIR TO ENTER THE BRAKE SYSTEM THIS CLEARLY PRESENTS A DANGEROUS SAFETY HAZARD ESPECIALLY ON A MOTORCYCLE. *JS
