• Braking system
Checking operation of brakes
Operate both brake levers, the pressure points
must be clearly perceptible.
If pressure point is not clearly perceptible, bleed
4
the brake system and re-check. If problem
persists, check system for damage and contact
approved service provider.
Checking brake pad thickness
Brake pads worn past the minimum permissible
thickness can cause a reduction in braking
efficiency and under certain circumstances they
can cause damage to the brake system.
In order to ensure the dependability of the brake
system, do not permit the brake pads to wear past
the minimum permissible thickness.
Visually inspect the condition and thickness of
the brake pad friction material.
To change the front brake pads, the wheel must
first be removed.
Checking brake-fluid level
A low fluid level in the brake reservoir can allow
air to penetrate the brake system.
This significantly reduces braking efficiency.
To check level, turn the handle bars to a straight-
ahead position and hold motorcycle upright.

Check the fluid level in the front brake master
cylinder (1) is above the minimum marker.
