Hey Bookie,

I had the same issue as you more than once. Each time it was just crud in the rear brake level shaft and usually after riding in some hard rain. Pulled the shaft out, cleaned and lubed it, put it back together and it resolved the issue. Can't hurt to take a couple of minutes to try. Last time it happened I was on a long road trip and knew what the issue was. Took it to a dealer and told them what I needed done. They thought I was nuts and forced me to pay a diagnostic fee. I got the fee back when they discovered I was correct.
