BRAKES
Both the front and rear brakes are the
hydraulic disc types.
As the brake pads wear, the brake fluid
level drops.
There are no adjustments to perform, but
fluid level and pad wear must be inspected
periodically. The system must be inspected
frequently to ensure there are no fluid leaks.
If the control lever or pedal free travel
becomes excessive and the brake pads are
not worn beyond the recommended limit
(page
102
), there is probably air in the brake
system and it must be bled. See your Honda
dealer for this service.

Front Brake
Front Brake Fluid Level:
Brake f luid may cause irritation.
Avoid contact with skin or eyes. In
case of contact, flush thoroughly with
water and call a doctor if your eyes
were exposed.
KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHIL-
DREN.
Handle brake fluid with care because
it can damage plastic and painted
surfaces.
When adding brake f luid, be sure the
reservoir is horizontal before the cap
is removed or brake fluid may spill
out.
Use only DOT 4 brake fluid from a
sealed container.
Never allow contaminants such as
dirt or water to enter the brake fluid
reservoir.
