Maintenance
Front Brake Lever
1. Lubricate the pivot bushing at the intervals
recommended in the periodic maintenance table
beginning on page 53. Also lubricate any time
binding is evident. Use VICTORY All Purpose
Grease or equivalent.
2. Inspect brake pads as outlined on page 39.
Front Brake Fluid
Change the brake fluid at the intervals recommended in
the periodic maintenance table beginning on page 53 or
every two years, whichever comes first. Do not attempt
to change the anti-lock brake system fluid. See your
VICTORY dealer.
1. Straddle the motorcycle and bring it to the fully
upright position. Position the handlebars so that the
fluid reservoir is level. Wipe the fluid container and
the area around the reservoir cover with a clean
cloth.
2. If the fluid level is low, inspect brake pads as
outlined on page 39. If pads are not worn beyond the
service limit, inspect the brake system for leaks.
3. To add fluid, remove the three reservoir cover
screws. Remove the cover and diaphragm. Carefully add fluid to the top of the sight
glass. Do not overfill. Reinstall the diaphragm, cover and screws.
Torque: 25 in-lbs (3 Nm)
4. Wipe away any fluid spills. Check for signs of brake fluid leaks around hoses, fittings,
reservoir, and brake calipers. Check for deterioration of hoses.
