Default Help on ABS Modulator Replace

Had mine replaced at dealer. Had no front brake pull. Before I go off and make myself look like a dumb *** I just need to make sure I'm not. All brake lines tie into this modulator.
Picked bike up in rain, put on trailer to take home. Ride to work, front works ok, bake seems like I don't have any. Ride back home with same feel. Open back master cylinder cover only to find no brake fluid. Check front, and it's also low. I was thinking maybe they should have bleed and check the fluids with the repair, but I've been wrong before, so any one with this knowledge please chime in. Thanks

i would say that you are not a dumb ***. they should have checked the fluids and topped them off (and bled them as well)

Yup. Back to the dealer and grasp the Service Manager gently by the throat.....
