Is their brake fluid? Should be located under the right side of the rear fender.

is the brake lever going all the way down? check to see if its leaking fluid while you press the brakes.

dry off evreything, the rear brake lines, the resevoir, the master, all the lines including the rear caliper, make sure you have fluid and pump the lever to see if anything is leaking. also make sure the lever hasnt broken off at the bottom of the master
