Front Brake Lever
The front brake lever position can be adjusted by
loosening the lock nut and turning the adjuster. Turn-
ing the adjuster clockwise moves the brake lever far-
ther away from the grip; turning the adjuster
counterclockwise moves the brake lever closer to the
grip.
Tighten the lock nut securely.
If the brake lever free play exceeds 0.8 in (20 mm), there
is probably air in the brake system and it must be bled.
Refer to the Honda Service Manual or see your author-
ized Honda dealer for brake bleeding.
CAUTION:
•
Apply grease to the contacting faces of the adjuster
and piston.

Control Positioning
•
Position the control levers so that control use is
comfortable when both seated and standing.
•
Adjust control lever mounting bolt torque so that
the levers will rotate on the handlebar in a fall,
rather than bending or breaking. Apply Honda
Thread Lock or an equivalent to the threads of these
bolts prior to adjustment to help ensure the correct
torque is retained. Tighten the top bolts first.
