XJ brake lever hard to pull?

[ljasonb]

Well with the bleeder cracked open the lever and piston moves all the way with little pressure. Easy as pie. I filed the piston smooth, re-bled the brake and tightened it all back up. Same feel as before. Still stops fine.

Guess my front brake system is just really solid. Unless there are other recommendations I'm gonna call it done.

Thanks everyone.
