Brakes

Rear Brake Fluid Level

1. To check the rear brake fluid level, remove right side

cover. Straddle the motorcycle and bring it to a vertical

position.

2. View the brake fluid through the reservoir. The fluid

should be clear and at a level between minimum (MIN)

and maximum (MAX) marks on the side of the

reservoir. Add brake fluid if necessary.

Add Rear Brake Fluid

Do not operate the rear brake while its reservoir cover is removed. Fluid could overflow from the

reservoir and cause air to enter the fluid system. Air in the brake fluid system could cause the brakes

to malfunction.

Use only DOT 4 brake fluid from a sealed, clean container. Using the wrong brake fluid, or allowing

contaminants into the brake fluid system, can damage the system resulting in brake malfunction.
