Rear brake pedal sticking

[grandmasterquad]

We havent rode the EX in a few weeks and i went to go check it to get ready to go out tomorrow and i notice the rear brake pedal sticks down when you step on it. Is this a normal thing if you dont ride it for a while?
How do you free it up?

the rear brake pedal is another often overlooked service item on the 400ex. it should be removed and the point where it goes thru the frame lubed with a marine grade waterproof grease. it should be done atleast once a season.

yeah, that happened to me with my CRF450R, it uses a CRF brake lever and master cylinder, but I didnt take it apart all season and then like a month ago it wouldn't come back up and it was even a pain in the arse to remove.
