Default Rear Brake question

I have a 91 f2, the back brakes are a little light. I have tested to the point where they will not stop the bike on their own, I must use the front brake and downshift. I can stop the bike on a dime with the combination of the above, however i think i should get a little more stopping power from the rear. I have bled the brakes, and the pads are new. Any suggestions???

the rear brakes only give about 20% of your braking force. I dont think that you have a problem..

check the pistons on the rear caliper.. mine had a line of rust on them and i sanded that off and lubed them and they work ALOT better..
