MAINTENANCE

Brake Fluid

Hand Brake

The master cylinder is located on
the left handlebar. Maintain the
fluid level 6 mm below the top
edge of the master cylinder. Do
not overfill.

1. Position the vehicle on a

level surface. Make sure
the handlebars are straight.

2. View the fluid level

through the indicator win-
dow (eye) on the top of the
master cylinder.

Tip: The eye will appear dark when

the fluid level is full. When fluid
is low, the eye will be clear.

3. Add the recommended

fluid as needed. Do not overfill.
