MAJOR COMPONENTS
(Information you need to operate this motorcycle)
BRAKES
Both the front and rear brakes are the
hydraulic disc types.
As the brake pads wear, 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 brake lever or pedal free travel
becomes excessive and the brake pads are
not worn beyond the recommended limit
(page 78), there is probably air in the brake
system and it must be bled. See your dealer
for this service.
Front Brake
Brake Fluid Level:
With the motorcycle in an upright position,
check the fluid level. It should be above the
LWR mark (1). If the level is at or below the
LWR mark, check the brake pads for wear
(page 78).
14
Worn pads should be replaced. If the pads
are not worn, have your brake system
inspected for leaks.
The recommended brake fluid is Honda
DOT 4 brake fluid from a sealed container,
or an equivalent.
