Is it normal to have to squeeze the living hell out of the brakes to get the Grizz’s started?

Sometimes I have to squeeze the brakes so hard I think I’m going to brake something to get her started… Just does not feel like the engineers intended it to.

If it is not normal, is it either a brake issue (bleed) or a starter solenoid, or maybe a CDI issue?

I might swell fix this while it’s up on jacks & getting other issues fixed.

thx for any help.
