This is a new one on me. I have one brake on the (SP) chopper that sets up by itself. You don't have to push on the pedal, it will lock itself up tight in about an hours time. Have to take a rubber mallet to either side of the drum to get it loose. I checked the bleeder & there was no undue pressure in the line. 'Bout all the info I have to play with at the moment. The drums are in place between the final drives & the frame.... so they are anything but easy to access. Also, I don't have a clue as to how that all comes apart, yet. I'm still on the hunt for service bulletins.
I'd elaborate here on the brakes, but it's a fairly basic setup, both left & right pedals have their own master & wheel cylinder, with their own dedicated line connecting them.
With all those facts in place, I'm going to guess the inside of the drum hasn't seen the light of day in a very looooong time..... or a good servicing. So, I can understand why it sticks, I just can't understand where this phantom pressure is coming from to make it stick in the first place.
