I have a 1993 Harley Davidson sportster 883 hugger. I had a flat on the rear, so i changed the tire.After i done this, I had no rear brakes. So with my bike being 20 years old, I completely redone the rear brake system. I installed a new caliber with pads, master cylinder rebuild kit and a new braided brake line. I used a Mityvac to pressure bleed them and i had good pedal until i got to going at a good rate of speed, then i got to apply the rear brakes, no pedal. I would have to pump the rear brakes to get a pedal to stop the bike. So i came back and hand bled them. Same thing happened as before,good pedal when stopped and first taking off, but at a good rate of speed, no pedal. I have the clymer's and the factory service manual for my sportster. I used only dot 5 brake fluid. After spending 200 in parts and 140 in manuals, i still have the same problem
