Replaced my MC a month ago and couldn't get the rear brakes bled. Couldn't get any fluid thru the system. So, I addressed the issue again today. same routine. Then I dropped the rear axle and now i can bleed the brakes. Is this ass-half backward or what. Any ideas?

It's possible the brake compensator plunger was either engaged or stuck blocking the brake fluid travel to the rear cylinders.

I get that, bullfrog. what i don't get is why is it working backward with no change in the system for 4 years other than replacing the MC.
