MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION
Brakes
Rear Brake
The rear brake is a hydraulic
disc type brake which is
activated by the same pedal
which activates the front brake
system. The rear brake system
requires periodic checks of the
pads for wear.
Wear Line
S
Pads should be changed
when worn to 3/64″ (.1
cm) which is about the
thickness of a dime.
S
Inspect the brake disc
spline and pad wear surface
for excessive wear.
Brake Light Switch
When the brake pedal is depressed, the brake light goes on. Check the
brake light switch before each ride.
To inspect the brake light, first turn the ignition switch to the ON
position.
Depress the brake pedal. The brake light should go on after about
10mm (0.4 in.) of pedal travel.
If the light does not go on, check the bulb.
3/64″ (.1 cm)
Due to the nature of this type of vehicle and where it is operated,
headlight and taillight lenses may become dirty. Frequent
washing is necessary to maintain lighting quality. Poor lighting
while operating can result in severe injury or death.
WARNING
CAUTION
Do not service while lights are hot. Serious burns may result.
