Do a complete brake bleed with fresh fluid and a clean, clear container. This will let you see the strength of the flow from each wheel and any debris in the system.
This what neighbor ask. So he is only here part time but promised to bring power bleeder down an help me search for problem.

Yep my moneys on a collapsed hose, replace em all anyway, replace all the fluid, new rear wheel cylinder seals.
Bleed the M/C properly too.
Should have a nice strong pedal then.
Don't expect too much tho, 40 something year old 11" discs aren't anything to shout about!

I agree ,Year One has the proper harness's that are plug and play! They have 30% discounts all the time, They even have one this weekend and the promo code is WAVE. I believe MEGA PART'S has them also.

yes have done all this, awaiting a power bleedr=er from a friend to draw fluid through all lines an see what I come up with. Thanks for your insight. Been suggested the cam may not be letting me draw adequate vacuum.

"Been suggested the cam may not be letting me draw adequate vacuum". That will make your brake pedal feel very hard and the brakes will not work properly if you do not have enough vacuum. And you said the brakes work fine, so this is not your problem.
