My next step would be to call Buell Customer Service.

I didn't even know that the rear brakes did anything on Buells. After having applied them several times, I assumed that they were solely decorative and that the fluid wasn't actually doing anything other than expanding the brake lines.

there are a small number of reports in the uk of rear brake issues, I made sure that the lever pivot has been copaslipped and also check that the pads are free in the caliper once a month, the issue of the standard exhaust blowing crap all over the rear brake was the main reason why I changed to a Remus can.

Had the master cylinder, caliper, pads and rotor replaced under warranty for sticking on mine, took about 2 weeks for stuff to come in. The rotor turned purple and gold within 15 minutes, felt like I lost a lot of HP up top, couldn't get up over 140 mph that night. Got home, it was smokin hot. Called the dealer, it got replaced.
