I think you are just running fluid up the handbrake line instead of to the caliper.

Re: moto-heaven handbrake?

make sure you use a little sealant where the hose meets at the rear.......also dont be afraid to keep bleeding the brakes....and u always want to start at the farthest point away from the caliper...so start by bleeding the handbrake, then bleed the foot one.......

and once is all said and done....they will NOT work in conjunction....they will fight each other if u try to use both at the same time......

remember dont forget to use sealant, as this is not a factory part, it will let the tiniest amount of air through, and cause u to have to pump it, to get full pressure, the sealant will make it so there are no leaks at all, eliminating the pumping problem.....

Moto-Heaven is one of our sponsors....if u need anymore help, please feel free to pm me.....HOLLA
