Front Brake Fluid
Change the brake fluid at the intervals recommended in the periodic maintenance table
beginning on page 54. Always add brake fluid from a new, unopened container. Always use
the recommended fluid. See page 104.
1. Position the motorcycle on level ground in the fully upright position. Position the
handlebars so that the fluid reservoir is level. Wipe the fluid container and the area
around the reservoir cover with a clean cloth.
2. If the fluid level is low, inspect brake pads as outlined on page 67. If pads are not worn
beyond the service limit, inspect the brake system for leaks.
3. To add fluid, remove the reservoir
cover screws. Remove the cover
and diaphragm.
4. The fluid level should be above
the minimum indicator mark in
the sight glass. Add brake fluid as
needed. Do not overfill.

and screws.
