I took my bike out of storage and found that the rear brake caliper was sticking and not releasing properly. I removed the brake pads, cleaned everything with brake cleaner, and pushed the caliper piston back in. I never opened the bleeder screw during this process.
After reassembling everything, the rear master cylinder lost its prime. I tried bleeding the brakes, but the master cylinder just won't build pressure. I also hooked up a vacuum bleeder, but it won't pull fresh brake fluid through the system. I've gone over the entire brake system looking for leaks and haven't found anything.
At this point I'm running out of ideas and am about ready to start replacing parts. Has anyone run into this before or have any suggestions on what to check next?
