Rear brake pedal position
When the brake pedal is in rest position, there should be a free play

If the brake pedal feels spongy when it is applied, there might be air
trapped in the brake pump or the brake may be defective. Since it
is dangerous to operate the motorcycle under such conditions, have
the brake checked inmediately.
