Did you check the adjuster on the brake lever? There is a dial with numbers 1-6 on the lever. You may want to adjust that and test it out because that would be the simplest thing it could be.

HAd problems when I installed my Galfer lines on my F4i. A friend taught me to run tubing from the bleeder screw to a cup of brake fluid. Then pump them and bleed them as normal. Got a much better feel way faster. Also, make sure you are using the proper fluid.
