Got a kx85 front brake that is real spongy. I've bleed it and its still very spongy. How do I know if its the master cylinder or caliper that needs a rebuild?
-thanks

If you know for sure you have bled it properly, then its the master cylinder.. if the caliper was causing it, there would be oil coming out of it.

The kits are cheap and easy to install.. like 15 bucks or something .

I have done mine with ProX or AllBalls, although Im pretty sure they come from the same manufacturer just put into a different box.

So easy and cheap, after you're done you'll wonder why you didn't do it earlier. I used the All Balls kit for my son's CR 85 and it was night and day better. Good luck
