Anyone else feel the front brakes are a little....I dunno...Spongey or just not as good as they should be?

I spent the weekend on a Triumph Speed Twin and getting back on my bike now the brakes feel terrible....Lots of play until they bite, and not as aggressive. Ok, granted, completely different style of bike but I feel like maybe my brakes need some love.


The lever is adjusted as far out as it will go and i still have to pull pretty far to get decent brake action. If I pump them they stiffen up a bit though. Maybe a little air in there?
