If  you pump the breaks do they build up to where the leaver
is away from the grip and don't bleed off ? If so u either have air in them
or your lines are expanding and u need new ones.

   When I chaged to new S.S.lines and to dot4, push fluids from callipars up to res.a few times keeped thinking air in lines,also pumped and bled,a few times,lever pulls soft ,close to grips but stops great.Paul (my Mechanic )said that so long as it stops the bike don't worry about it,cause there working,
  I didn't rebuild res.,4 new pads,1 new piston(frnt),rubbing alchaul flush.I believe there is always a chance you might have .000009 air in lines,So if not right make it right / safe as you can as I did,I suddently fill one brake not wrking right I'll use the other ,till get to side of road safe to check.
