Sorry Ladies and Gents, no German in writing!
I've read and understood most of the comments regarding the different pressurepoints of the brakelever.
I've experienced the same problem and the solution was very simple. I was racing my R80 G/S and decided to improve the braking by bleeding the brakes and add some new brakefluid. While in a hurry I tightened the screws to the cover to much, compressing the rubbergromet inside the oilreservoir. By doing this I squezzed the venthole in the rubbergromet. Result was a too large retracting of the pistons in the caliper. Alas pressure point went closer to the handlebar. Loosen the coverscrews and problem was solved.
