no brakes ...

[cantab27]

i know this is a check up thing , ie checking fluids and stuff ..thought i had done it when i did my rear brakes ,, but been busy doing my boys little rig as well ..anyways went to put foot on brakes and had none ...just been out under the hood and have no brake fluid ..:rotfl2: now in all honesty i thought i had check brake fluid levels when checking oil and water etc ..i cant see any leaks or anything ... does the fluid get low after time , or maybe there is a slight leak i have missed :smiley-scared002:...
i know i only have to fill and bleed and be away again , i hope anyways ... kinda fond of my brakes ....:rotfl2:

Being concerned about having working brakes, just shows that you have low confidence in your driving abilities. Don't be that guy! :smiley-laughing021:
