2016 Rocket III roadster
Jumped on my 2016 Roadster, she’s been sitting for a year. My 2023 Chrome Edition became my first choice. Anyway, got half a mile down the road, rear brake pedal, no pressure, no brake. The MC fluid is at perfect level. Wonder if anyone has an idea before I ride it 25 miles to dealer.
 
Exactly same thing happened to my 13 roadster after being sat all winter fluid level ok I pumped the pedal quite a few times stationary and it all came back to normal?
 
Please post what you learn about this.
Especially if anything to do with ABS.

Thanks, I cracked the bleed valve, fluid came out right away. I pumped it and brakes work. Still a lot more pedal travel. Guess I’ll keep pumping a little more. Been riding the 2023, maybe I just did not notice the pedal travel before. Cleaning her up a little and putting on the market, makes me sad. 23k miles, never an issue, only scheduled maintenance.
