Brakes

Front Brake Inspections

The front (right lever) brakes are hydraulic disc brakes, activated by

moving the brake lever toward the handlebar. This brake system is self-

adjusting.
The following checks are recommended to keep the brake system in

good operating condition. Check more often if brakes are used heavily

under normal operation.
1. Always keep brake fluid at an

adequate level. See page 29.

2. Check the brake system for

fluid leaks.

3. Check the brakes for excessive

travel or spongy feel.

4. Check the friction pads for

wear, damage and looseness.

Replace the pads when the fric-

tion material is worn to 1 mm.

5. Check the security and surface

condition of the disc.

1 mm
