After a recent tune-up my brake felt really tight and the first time I pulled the handle, I felt like I was going to launch myself. Now, a few weeks later it's back to feeling a bit soft. Anyone else have this problem and what are your recommendations? Is there something I should tighten? ???

First off is it just your front brakes or both?
If it both I have no idea since the possibility of both brakes having air in them would be odd. That being said try and bleed the brakes and see if any air comes out. I can't tell you much more than that with out actually feeling the brakes myself.
Motorcycle brakes are a fairly simple system so it should not be to hard to figure out with a few more details from you.

It's just the front Blue. I'll give that a try to see if they feel better to the touch. Thanks

OK BD, what the Sam Hill does "Sue gets her own thread" mean? It's on every thread I've visited so far?

Nevermind. Just found it. :-[
