    new member here.

    Hey all, thought I'd introduce myself. I'm freddy, bought an 1190rx #94 a couple months ago and have been enjoying it ever since. I bought it for 3k but it has a salvaged title. These bikes are more rare than thought, especially since EBR went under again. Happy riding!Click image for larger version.

    That’s a good looking bike! What have you done to it? What was the damage done to it?

    I believe it just has the ecm calibration and the slip ons. It has a dent that you can see on the right side of the frame. Crank case has some rash on it and a few minor cracks here and there. The first owner spilled it going into a corner from what I was told. It needs some minor work but it runs flawlessly. I've had 4 other bikes and this is the keeper.

    My rear break doesn't work either. I don't know if it was disabled or just not functioning but if somebody cant point me in the right direction I would very much appreciate it.

    Did you try bleeding​ the line? Mine doesn't have the lockup power that I would have thought. Is this what you are experiencing?

    I have not tried that. But even if that was the problem, wouldn't there be some kind of brake engagement. I get absolutely nothing.

    No not really. You don't need much air to have no brake.

    If it were me, I'd take the caliper off the rotor with the bike on the stand.

    .

    Check the rear brake pads to see if they are in good shape. Depress the brake lever and see if the pistons move at all. If not, then try to bleed them. If you can't, check for a cut/impingement of the rear brake line. If you still can't get the pistons to move, then do a rebuild of the rear caliper. If that doesn't work, you may need to repair/replace the rear master cylinder.

    Good luck!

    I'll do some trouble shooting, if i can't find it myself I've gotta take it in. I've got a 69 fairlane cobra that's in pieces in my garbage!
