FEATURES AND CONTROLS
Brake Systems
Service Brake Lever
Squeeze the service brake lever
(left lever) toward the handlebar to
apply the front and rear brakes.
These brakes are hydraulically
activated disc brakes.
Always test brake lever travel and
master cylinder fluid level before
riding. When squeezed, the lever
should feel firm. Any sponginess
would indicate a possible fluid leak or low master cylinder fluid level,
which must be corrected before riding. Contact your dealer for proper
diagnosis and repairs.
Auxiliary Brake Lever
Squeeze the auxiliary brake lever (right lever) toward the handlebar to
apply the middle axle (rear brake) only.
Use the auxiliary brakes for
additional braking or for backup
if the service brake system fails.
If the rear wheels slide while
using the auxiliary brake, reduce
brake lever pressure to brake the
rear wheels without skidding.
