Question:

while bleeding brake lines noticed rear brake line dont have good preasure less on drivers side?

the left rear comes out some but not very good the driver side barly comes out at all what should I check then when I text drove down my dirt road slammed on brakes only the pasenger side would lock up try to see if worked the same on both sides

Answer:

You may need to re-bleed the brakes. Dirt roads are not good enough to test brakes. Each wheel has different traction on the road. Lets understand about Brake balance: Car manufacturers use one of two versions. Front/Back bias OR Cross bias. Front/Back bias means 1/2 the Master Cylinder pumps to the (both) front brakes AND the other 1/2 pumps the rear brakes. For Cross Bias. 1/2 the master cylinder pumps to the Left Front wheel AND the Right Rear wheel and the other half of the master cylinder pumps to the Right Front wheel AND the Left Rear wheel. So, the braking problem you describe should not possible happen unless the road surface not exactly the same under all the wheels. One exception: If you were turning left really hard, then the weight transfer would, unload the left-side wheel AND overload the right side, thus causing lock-up skidding. When bleeding brakes, it helps to know which Brake Bias your car has, so you can bleed them properly. Most cars are Cross-Bias. You bleed the farthest brake from the master cylinder, 1st, then the next farthest, and so on. On left-hand drive cars: 1st-Right Rear 2nd-Left Rear 3rd- Right Front and last, Left Front.
if we knew what bike?? we would know if the 180 is an oversize tire??? yes it will fit. yes you could ride the bike that way. but the question that comes to mind is WHY??
your motorcycle got here inventory with a one hundred forty one length up is all you pick to circulate to maintain your managing a one hundred eighty on that rim for one will prob no longer fit between the swing arm and the tire will could desire to bend in lots it won't shop the around shape and get a foul flat section wall
The left rear is the drivers side
Assuming you have traction control and anti-brake system, It's completely normal if braking pressure isn't even on both sides, especially if you're on a dirt road. Also, your front brakes do most the of the braking than the rear, so that might have something to do with it.
