Brakes in a wierd state....
Ok, the first problem i had with my brakes was...
- Pedal traveled to the floor when stopped
I got a new MC, and it doesnt do that anymore.
However, now, the brakes work great, but there is not alot of resistance.
What i mean is that they work like they always have, but if i press hard, it can get it to go 50-70% of its full motion.
I am guessing there may be air in the line, but when i got a new MC, they flushed the system, so the chances are low.
I'm used to stepping a bake pedal and it being really hard.
any ideas?

Most likely whoever installed MC did not adequately bleed the brakes. It's a simple job but does take a bit of time and patience. Usually a two man job; one to operate brake pedal and other to crack the bleeder, bleed, reseal,...
I work from RR, LR, RF, LF to bleed.
good luck
