Hand brake help

Hi all need a little help with a hand brake, just got my brake shipped to Australia for a 929 from stuntme.com it's a brembo unit with a fixed master , had it mounted on top due to room restictions, could not clutch then get my fingers to the brake, so i swapped it around brake on bottom still having trouble getting my fingers to the brake after clutching. i manage to get 1 finger on it but there is not enough brake it pulls in and touches the rest of my fingers would bleeding more give me more lever? do i need to get the rest of my fingers on to the lever? cause i feel i can't let go of my grip with any more .please advise a struggling aussie Thanks.

I use 2 fingers on my handbrake. And it sounds like you need to bleed the line better.

Re: Hand brake help

hey guys done the bleeding couldn't get any more feel, it's ok but i still need to pump it a few times, should i cut the lever down so it's short enough so that when i pull it in with 2 fingers it won't hit the rest of my fingers? any suggestions chaeers.
