Yes, stock levers. Oddly enough, I didn't notice it at first when I'd initially picked up the bike at the dealership. On the way home I decided to test the ABS out, and after I managed to trigger it the first time, the brakes TOTALLY went to hell! I dunno if there was an air pocket in there somewhere or what, but after that first ABS trigger the brakes were TERRIBLE!!! I bled them the next morning, and things VASTLY improved, but I can still manage to bring the bar all the way back. I've gotta grab it with 4 fingers and pull hard, but one can still do it. It's not flex in the lines either. I put a machinist caliper on them and there is zero expansion in them. So, either somethings going on in the ABS unit, I've still got air in there... SOMEWHERE... or, the master cylinder just totally sucks. I'm betting on the latter. I can eventually see a master cylinder upgrade group buy in our future on the forum.
Something strange must be going on there, I can't get my lever any where near the bar.
