The brakes are the parts that most en-sure
your safety and for this reason they must
always be perfectly working.
The brake fluid must be changed once a year by an
Aprilia Authorized Dealer.
This scooter is provided with front hydraulic disc brake.
When the disc pads wear out, the level of the fluid
decreases to automatically compensate for their wear.
No adjustment is necessary, but it is important to check
the brake fluid level in the tank (Fig. 17) and the pad
wear (page 58) periodically.
To check the fluid level, keep the motorcycle in vertical
position and the handlebar straight, so that the fluid it
contains is parallel to the ground. Make sure that the
fluid covers the glass (1-Fig. 17) completely. Other-
wise, provide for topping up.
To carry out the topping up correcly, proceed as fol-
lows:
-
Remove the handlebar cover (see page 73).
-
Unscrew the two screws (1-Fig. 18) and raise the
cover (2-Fig. 18).
In order not to spill the brake fluid while top-
ping up, keep the fluid in the tank parallel to
the ground.
