if your brakes WERE fine for over 8 months....
I'd be guessing that you HAVE A PROBLEM........
is there fluid in m/c???
is it still full???
you say calipers are still dry,,,sounds more like a crack in a brakeline...
assuming that the m/c is still in good shape...
check fluid levels first,,then starting with Right Rear..bleed lines...R/R -L/R-R-F-L/F...
note...when bleeding brakes ..especially if alone,, I use a piece of clear fish tank hose around a foot long,,and make a loop facing upwards..
this does 2 things.. 1 -you can see the air bubbles travel thru line and 2- no air returns into brakes..
you should only have to pump brakes 1-2 times and then gravity feed..you should see it flow,, and there should even be a color change as you go from old to new fluid...
........hope this helps......... :sweat:
........oh yeah and chech the fluid level often..
........don't want to have to start all over again.........
