  1. Anyone having the same problem with there rear brake on the 013 model mts,i know there was problems with the ealier model,mine feels like theres no brake there and really crap to use,and no feel at all
    cheers:upyeah:
     
  2. Works fine:rolleyes:
     
  3. No problem
     
  4. Works fine
     
  5. Had a long trip on a 2013 GT and the brakes I thought were excellent front and rear.

    Maybe it's still prone to getting air in the system after a longer period?
     
  6. My rear brake works great on 2013 .
    2011 I traded was useless
     
  7. 2013 bike and the rear brake actually does work from day one! 6,500 miles so far and it still works just fine.
     
  8. Mine's fine, but take it back if you're not happy.
     
  9. Mine is good also. Much better than my 2010 model even after the update was done.
     
  10. Would be interesting to know the differences in systems to determine whether a 2013 component upgrade is feasible cos mine (2010) is shocking. I'll have to ask next time I visit the dealers who, incidentally, think my back brake is just fine!
     
  11. Both the caliper and the master cylinder are different.
     
  12. Swap your pads out. OEM pads are pretty shite even if you are happy with the 2013 rear. HH Ferodo Platinum will do the trick.
     
  13. I'd suggest you could pull the whole system out for the 2013 system. You'll pay though. Try Ducati Omaha for the parts.
     
  14. Thanks MJW61 for the tip. Just replaced the rear pads on my 2013 Multistrada with EBC HH pads - rear brake now works!!. Cheers
     
  15. Whats a rear brake? :wink:
     
  16. Something those enduro off road boys use lol
     
  17. Glad to be of assistance. Do the front pads too when you are ready. Either Ferodo or EBC. Platinum (Organic).
     
  18. This could be because of the excessive travel of the rear brake lever rather than it not working. There is a adjuster behind the rear brake lever which will reduce the brake lever travel & so make it feel better. :upyeah:
