MAINTENANCE

Brakes

The front and rear brakes are hydraulic disc brakes, activated by moving

the single brake lever toward the handlebar. The auxiliary foot brake is

also hydraulic. Both brake systems are self-adjusting.

Brake Inspections

The following checks are recommended to keep the brake system in

good operating condition. Check more often if brakes are used heavily

under normal operation.
1. Always keep brake fluid at an

adequate level. See page 32.

2. Check the brake system for fluid

leaks.

3. Check the brakes for excessive

travel or spongy feel.

4. Check the friction pads for wear,

damage and looseness. Replace

the pads when the friction mate-

rial is worn to 1 mm.

5. Check the security and surface

condition of the disc.
