MAINTENANCE

Brakes

Adjust Rear Brake Pedal

The brake pedal should be adjusted so that in the relaxed position, with no force on the pedal, there is 2-5 mm of

freeplay (gap) between the brake pedal stop (A) and the foot peg mount (B).
1. Hold the clevis (1) to prevent it from bending, and loosen the brake linkage rod locknut (2).
2. Turn the linkage rod in or out as needed, then hold the clevis and tighten the locknut securely against the clevis.
3. Verify that brake pedal freeplay is 2-5 mm.
4. Verify that the rear wheel rotates freely through the full freeplay range of pedal without dragging or binding. If

drag is present with the pedal released, refer to the VICTORY Service Manual or contact an authorized Victory

dealer.

Operating with improper brake adjustments can result in loss of control and serious injury or death.
