Ok guys got a little problem with the sm'ing already, I really hope one of you do know, so to cut it short, I took rear brake caliper off SM rear wheel on, rear caliper back on, everything fitted properly, but there is not back brake now, when I pump the rear brake lever there is nothing there, Butttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt silly me when I took the rear caliper off, all the brake fluid came out of the caliper well most of it, so am prayyyyyyyyyyyyyying this is why its doing it, brake fluid level is fine, if it is this how do I go about fixing it, dam thing
Sounds like you need some new caliper seals and a bleed out mate

this is what i use, tales about 2-3 mins max to bleed each brake , just attach it then loosen nipple,pump it until it goes hard,then tighten nipple, job done
coulda just blown the seal mate, possibly get away with wipping the piston out and sticking it back in, but if its gone might just as well stick a new seal in

i would replace seals if the bleeding doesnt work, just patman says he emptied half the fluid out which is a big sign, way to check the seals is bleed it and if it leeks, then buy seals
i had the same problem with mine when i smed mine but mine wass with the front lol probly just got some air in the system mate should work again after re blleding it a couple of times right pian in the ar*e
Yeah it sure is oh well it has to be done will get it sorted, and there was me thinking it would be a quick off, back on sort of thing, what was i ever thinking thanks for the link crazy mate aswell
get a syringe, spanner, bit of tubing and brake fluid.. fit tube on syringe, fill syringe with brake fluid and push out any air, fit tube over bleed nipple... loosen bleed nipple and slowly pump the fluid into the caliper.. air bubbles like to be pumped up the system not down and it will bleed your brakes in less than 60 seconds. job done..
do it with the master cylinder cap off unless it is empty and be careful as it might spit brake fluid everywhere.. do it carefully though and you'll see all the the bubbles coming up into the resevoir..
