Since the online form didn't have an entry for this bike, I have included the pertinent information here: year: 2006 category: motorcycle manufacturer: triumph motorcycles (america) ltd make: triumph model: sprint st 1) over time I noticed that the front brake lever required more travel to actuate the brakes. 2) nearly collided with a truck which pulled in front of me because I pulled the front brake lever and it came completely back to the hand grip without any brake force applied. 3) returned the bike to the dealer who bled the front brakes. 4) problem persists, requiring brake bleeding every other week. *jb
