Suzuki DL650K5 Service Manual page 45

#
The brake system of this motorcycle is filled with a
glycol-based brake fluid. Do not use or mix different
types of fluid such as silicone-based or petro-
leum-based. Do not use any brake fluid taken from
old, used or unsealed containers. Never re-use brake
fluid left over from the last servicing or stored for a
long period.
#
Brake fluid, if it leaks, will interfere with safe running
and immediately discolor painted surfaces. Check the
brake hoses and hose joints for cracks and oil leakage
before riding.
BRAKE PADS
• Remove the brake caliper. (Front)
• The extent of brake pad wear can be checked by observing
the grooved limit A on the pad. When the wear exceeds the
grooved limit, replace the pads with the new ones. (!7-59
and - 69)
"
Replace the brake pad as a set, otherwise braking per-
formance will be adversely affected.
