    Unhappy Brake failure

    Wondering if anyone experienced the following. When braking, the travel is too far. The travel causes the foot board to release: brake light comes on: brake failure emits: and the braking is sluggish. The mechanic said he hasn't seen this on the type of braking system. He checked it with a unit on the floor and found the ratchet mechanism that takes up the distance of brake wear wasn't working properly. Ordered a replacement with oil change @ $1000.00. I have a 14 RT-S if that makes a difference. Please shed any light on the subject and any advice would be appreciated. FYI, don't know when/if I get ride back due to the flooding here in South LA.
