Pre-Ride Inspections

Rear Brake Fluid Level

The rear brake fluid reservoir is located near the rear brake

pedal. View the reservoir level from the right side of the

vehicle.
1. Position the motorcycle on level ground in the fully

upright position.

2. View the brake fluid through the reservoir.
3. The fluid should be clear. Replace cloudy or

contaminated fluid.

4. The fluid level should be above the minimum indicator

mark on the reservoir body. Add brake fluid as needed.

See page 108.

Brake Lines

Inspect all brake hoses and connections for dampness or

stains from leaking or dried fluid. Tighten any leaking

connections to the proper torque values and replace

components as necessary. See the INDIAN MOTORCYCLE

Service Manual or an authorized INDIAN MOTORCYCLE

dealer.

WARNING! Brake fluid leaks or low brake fluid levels could cause

brake system failure, which could result in serious injury or death. Do

not operate the vehicle with low brake fluid levels or when leaks are

evident (dampness or stains from dried fluid). See your authorized

INDIAN MOTORCYCLE dealer.
