Maintenance
Rear Brake Pedal
1. Lubricate the pivot bushing at the intervals
recommended in the periodic maintenance table
beginning on page 56. Also lubricate any time binding
is evident. Use all-purpose grease.
2. Inspect brake pads as outlined on page 78.
Brake Hoses/Connections
Inspect all brake hoses and connections for dampness or
stains from leaking or dried fluid. Tighten any leaking
connections and replace components as necessary. See the
INDIAN MOTORCYCLE Service Manual or an authorized
INDIAN MOTORCYCLE dealer.
Brake Fluid Precautions
Using the wrong fluid or allowing air or contaminants into the fluid
system can damage the system seals or result in a malfunction that
could lead to serious injury or death. Use only DOT 4 brake fluid from
a sealed container.
Do not operate the front brake with the reservoir cover removed.
Fluid could overflow from the reservoir and allow air to enter the
system. Air in the brake system could cause the brakes to
malfunction.
An over-full reservoir 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.
NOTICE: Brake fluid will damage painted surfaces and plastic parts.
Always clean spilled brake fluid immediately with water
and a mild detergent.
