List,

The 250 needed a new master cylinder, I got a rebuild from Apple.
After all the inspecting, twisting off of bleed screws, wheel cylinder
rebuilding,
I was off on my first ride.  The front brakes won't let go!  I took the car
in and pried
the calipers open, but as soon as I hit the brakes they clamped down tight
and won't
let go.  How do I check the gap between the MC and the booster?  I think
the front hoses are
in good shape. what else should I be looking at?

Thanks,
Brian
