Check Front Brake Fluid Level
1. To check the front brake fluid level, rest the
motorcycle on the sidestand and on level ground. Turn
the handlebars until the front brake fluid reservoir is
level.
2. View the brake fluid through the sight glass. The fluid
should be clear and at a level in or above the sight
glass. Add brake fluid if necessary (see page 93).
Check Rear Brake Pedal Freeplay and Movement
Rear brake pedal freeplay -- the amount of brake pedal
movement from the rest position to the point of contacting the
master cylinder -- should be 3/16--5/16 inch (5--8 mm). Adjust
pedal freeplay as necessary (see page 95).
Press and release the rear brake pedal. It should move freely
and smoothly and should return to its rest position quickly
when you release it. You should feel a firm resistance in the
pedal within the first 3/4 inch (19 mm) of pedal travel.
