ADJUSTMENTS

Brakes

Under normal operation, the diaphragm extends into the reservoir as fluid level drops. If

the fluid level is low and the diaphragm is not extended, a leak is likely and the diaphragm

should be replaced. Always fill the reservoir as needed whenever the cover is loosened or

removed to ensure proper diaphragm operation. Do not overfill. See page 56.
The front brakes are hydraulic disc brakes. They’re activated by squeezing the brake lever

toward the handlebar. The rear brake is a hydraulic disc brake activated by the foot brake

pedal. Both brakes are self-adjusting, but the following checks are recommended to keep

the brake systems in good operating condition. Check more often if brakes are used

heavily under normal operation.

WARNING

An over-full master cylinder may cause brake drag or brake lock-up, which could

result in serious injury or death. Maintain brake fluid at the recommended level. Do

not overfill. See page 56.
