Description of the problem	While starting to exit an interstate highway and entering the radiused exit ramp, i applied both front and rear brakes on my motorcycle in order to slow from 65 mph to a safe exit speed. While entering the turn, the brake pedal for the rear brakes, went all the way down. I lost all rear braking ability on the exit ramp. I was unable to safely slow to the posted exit speed.
