When I got my 2019 KX450 the front brake lever feels somewhat strong, but it doesn’t get firm enough before the lever touches the throttle assembly. It has enough power to lock the wheel when sitting, but when I ride it I can’t get the front wheel to lock no matter how hard I pull the lever. I tried bleeding it and also tried tying the lever overnight, and it’s still mushy. Would a reverse bleeder work or do I need a master cylinder rebuild?

Reverse bleed with a syringe for $2 from CVS first, then I’d move on to rebuilding the master cylinder.
Grab lever and crack banjo fitting loose enough to bleed out fluid do both of them Then bleed the system
Alright thanks! 🤙 I’ll try reverse bleeding
