MAINTENANCE
Brakes
Check Brake Pads
Inspect front (1) and rear (2) brake pad thickness. Replace brake
pads when wear lines (3) are no longer visible, or when pad
thickness reaches 1.5 mm.
The shielded pad must be installed on the non-piston side of the
caliper. If the brake pads require replacement, see the VICTORY
Service Manual or an authorized VICTORY dealer for
assistance.
Check Brake Disc
Visually inspect the brake disc for nicks, scratches, cracks, or
other damage. Inspect the thickness of each brake disc in at least
four points around the disc. Minimum thickness is stamped on
the inner hub of the disc. If the front or rear disc has worn to the
minimum thickness at the thinnest point, or if the disc is
damaged, contact your VICTORY dealer for replacement.
Check Brake Hoses and 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. Refer to the Victory Service Manual for
torque values of fasteners or contact your Victory dealer.
