MAINTENANCE

Brakes

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.

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.

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.
