Greetings, my first post on this forum.

I haven't worked on a Honda for many years but my son bought one and he needs my help.

We rebuilt the front caliper and master. We followed shop manual procedures. I also watched a couple YouTube videos to check my work.

When assembled the master doesn't produce pressure; not enough to work the brake. I have bled them several times using a power bleeder, changed the rubbers in the master and replaced the banjo bolt crush washers. Nothing leaks. I have said a prayer to the motorcycle gods.

Any thoughts? Your help would be appreciated.
 
Often you need to bleed the MC itself before attaching the banjo bolt. It's messy. Wear nitrile gloves and protect paint. Also, make sure a cup has not rolled out of position in the MC.
