Some salesman is licking his wounds wondering if this guy is the toughest customer

Sounds like the caliper piston scenario, I plan to try X2 more tweaks before looking at the MC. Clamping the breather and replacing shims for the pads. Cheers

I need to take another look, I would expect that a leak would show itself as fluid in the areas where I have worked, only X2 areas on the front Calipers each side and all appears tight and dry. I will take another look armed with all of the suggestions.

Yes, firmish pedal after pumping but doesn't hold. No pressure bleeder, X2 humans - x1 Flexi hose with non return valve
-
New seals and pistons, is there a simple way to fix this without stripping down the caliper. Pads out -application of brake fluid in front of the new dust seal then push the pistons back ?
-
Yes Phil

I've just spent 2 hours bleeding the system since I refitted the front Calipers and hard lines to the calipers. The system is flushed and there are no visible air bubbles in the bleed hose but I don't have any brakes until I pump 5/6 times. Is it case of perseverance, I don't see any obvious fluid/air leaks

They have been in business many years, they repaired a Fuchs for me a few years ago that got damaged in transit. They know their stuff. Worth a call ahead before deciding

Renowheel in Bridgend if you are willing to commit to postage. They have a very good reputation but I expect that you will find someone closer to home.

Sounds good Richard. Bout time you moved over from the big smoke - you could buy a whole village in mid Wales and we could all stopover before the drive outs😎 -
Given the fleet of hyper cars you both service I suggest Felix should buy Shirish 'half' an ale next meet up ,😎
