Rear brake problems

[jager12]

I have replaced the rear pads on my 08 Busa and bled the brakes but I have to realy slam the brake lever down to get any stopping power. Any ideas why this is happening? I had the sets powder coated but no brake parts were coated and everything was assembled back correctly. I know with the old pads all I had to do was put a little pressure on the lever with my toe and it would have stopping power but now it wont even hold it on a hill when stopped. Any ideas? Thanks

Was the brake system opened.?

hard to get air out of the rear with the silly loop in the line.

No the system wasnt opened, it was jast unbolted from the set to have the lever and set powdercoated.
