John,
I was hoping for puddles, but not a one was to be found! Big or
little. (Except for the ones I made around the bleeder valves.)
Bench bleeding the M/C - Hmmmm... didn't know this had to be done.
Any tip's on doing this? Page number in the Bentley manual? URL? FAQ?
PDWA switch off center - I saw a reference to it in the Bentley
manual, but I could not find a section that explains how to re-align
(re-center?) the valve. I did not know it could stop the flow of fluid.
Thanks,
Kurt

The big puddle of brake fluid on the garage floor would be a good hint!

Sounds like something may be clogging the check valve that draws fluid
into the part of the cylinder that serves the rear brake circuit. I'm
assuming that you were dilligent about bench bleeding the master after
rebuild, yes? Or, it might be that the PWDA (PDWA? PADW?? I dunno, the
switchy-valve-junction-blocky-thing) valve is way off center and just
not allowing fluid to reach the rear??
