BRAKE FAILURE ON 2006 HONDA VT600. FRONT BRAKES STICK IN STOP POSITION, PREVENTING REPEATED BREAKING. FRONT BRAKE CALIPER DRAGS ON ROTOR. I NEED TO CHECK BRAKES AND PUMP THEM BEFORE EVERY RIDE, BUT I HAVE BEEN VERY CONCERNED ABOUT MY SAFETY. VISITED DEALER ON MAY 24, 2008. SERVICE DEPARTMENT RECOMMENDED MASTER CYLINDER KIT, WHICH WOULD BE ORDERED. PAID FOR PARTS AT TIME OF ORDER. DURING A FOLLOW-UP CALL TO THE DEALER, I WAS TOLD THAT THE BRAKE PARTS FOR THE VT600 WERE ON "NATIONWIDE BACKORDER" AND THE EARLIEST THEY COULD ARRIVE WAS JUNE 14, 2008. THIS MADE ME SUSPECT THAT THIS BRAKE ISSUE IS A WIDESPREAD PROBLEM. PLEASE INVESTIGATE. *TR
