MAINTENANCE

Hydraulic Brake Inspection

Frequently inspect the brake

lever reserve. Firmly depress

the brake lever and measure

the clearance between the lever

and handlebar grip (A). This

distance, called brake lever

reserve, should be no less than

1/2″ (1.3 cm).
Brake pads must be replaced

when the brake pad material

becomes thinner than the backing plate (approximately 1/16″). A kit is

available for replacing brake pads. See your dealer.

A

Brake failure during operation can result in serious injury or death.

Properly functioning brakes are vital to your safety. Be sure the

brake pads do not drag on the disc and that brake lever travel is

not excessive.
Always replace brake pads when the brake pad material becomes

thinner than the backing plate (approximately 1/16″).
