The front brakes on my 86 250r wont grip. I have switched master cylinders and they still wont work. When I try to bleed them,m the fluid just comes out with no pressure at all. There are no leaks so what could I do to get the pressure built up in them?

are you sure the brakelines have no leaks? they could have minor slits that let air in and out, and minrow fluid not makin it easy to find. take them off and check it out. other then that i dont no what to tell you

My rear brakes on my R froze up. Sounds to me it's like the same thing. Check to see if the pads move. If not take the calipers off. Get channel locks. (really big pliers) and squeeze the calipers back in. There are rubber o-rings in there. They probably dry rotted. If it's really hard to squeeze the calipers back in..then it's time for a rebuild. Go to service honda and buy new o-rings. Good luck. If you need any more help..just post.
