Repalced the rear brake pads on my 05 883 and now no rear brakes. No hydraulic pressure. Fluid flow to master cylinder, but no output pressure at the outlet port. Any ideas ?????????

This may not answer your question.

I just put new pads on the front brake, it took about 8 pumps of the lever to get the new pads pushed against the rotor.

Did you pump up the brake several times when you finished the job?

how did you push the brake piston back at the caliper? I generally loosen the bleeder so that you aren't forcing the pressure the wrong way.  If the brake doesn't pump up as blockhead suggested, you may have blown a seal.
