Lost my rear brakes!!! 1 Year, 7 Months ago  
Coming home from work on Friday, I lost my rear brakes. Went to stop on a hill and my pedal went right to the floor board. No pressure in the line at all. So I look at it yesterday (too frustrated to deal with it on Friday), I opened the bleeder and got nothing not even air. I check the line at the master cylinder and see a drop of fluid. I take the line off and re-tighten it, tried to get pressure in the line again and got nothing. The reservoir was full, fluid does flow from the reservoir so it's not that. Bottom line I need a new rear master cylinder, I'm in SoCal anybody have any good places to get one without having to sell my bike to get it? LOL.

Yay.

But, for the rest of us, we haven't a clue as to 'What saved the day?' for you.

This is way off topic but those black pipes look awesome on your bike.
