Brake Pad Wear

(Refer to the Safety Precautions on page 55.)
Brake pad wear depends upon the severity of usage,
the type of riding, and road conditions. (Generally,
the pads will wear faster on wet and dirty roads.)
Inspect the pads at each regular maintenance interval
(page 56).
Front Brake
Check the cutout (1) in each pad. If either pad is worn
to the cutout, replace both pads as a set. See your
Honda dealer for this service.
