Brake Fluid Replacement - Yamaha RAPTOR YFM660RP Owner's Manual

● Be careful that water does not enter the
brake fluid reservoir when refilling. Water
will significantly lower the boiling point of
the fluid and may result in vapor lock.

es or plastic parts. Always clean up spilled
fluid immediately.
● Have a Yamaha dealer check the cause if
the brake fluid level goes down.
