| Description of the problem | I push my harley davidson flhx 2009 out of the garage and applied the front brake and started the motorcycle. After the motorcycle was warmed up got back on the motorcycle and tried to squeeze the front brake level but it would not move. The front brake lever would not move and i could not engage the front brake. Before starting the motorcycle the front brake was fine but after the motorcycle was started the front brake lever will not move. I turned the motorcycle off and push it back into the garage and a month later the front brake level still will not move. The motorcycle had received its 20,000 service only about four months prior to the front brake problem. |
