Tiger Gen 3 Rear Brake Lever Travel

[bradcgy]

Hello, has anyone experienced long travel in the rear brake lever when applying the rear brake. On my 2020 Tiger 1200 XCx it seems to take a lot of distance to apply the rear brake before it starts to catch. I have replaced the rear pads after 11K kms but it hasnt seemed to have helped. Brake fluid levels look good too. Is there an adjustment that can be made to the lever travel? Thanks in advance for any instruction/feedback/comments you can offer.

Had that problem on my previous bike, '14 T'bird LT. Pedal went to full travel when I first took bike out of winter hibernation. Had to get them bled at dealer due to antilock brake valves having to be opened using Triumph software. Fixed the issue. It acted like seals were gone in master cylinder piston. It would pump up if you did multiple quick pumps.
According to Triumph, the brakes are supposed to have fresh fluid and be bled every 2 years. Need to get them done on my Tiger this year. They feel a bit soft.

Update... dealer bled the brakes completely adding all fresh fluid. Rear braking is normal now with no extended travel issues of the rear brake lever, very happy. Thanks all
