Checking the front brake pads and rear
brake shoes
A wear indicator is attached to each brake to
facilitate brake pad and shoe check.
This indicator permits a visual check without
disassembling the pads.
Front:
To check, look at the·pad wear indicator in
back of the caliper. If any pad is worn to the
wear limit, ask a Yamaha dealer to replace
the pads.
Rear:
To check, see the wear indicator pos1t1on
while depressing the brake pedal. If the in-
dicator reaches to the wear limit line, ask your
Yamaha dealer to replace the shoes.
