Front Brake Lever - Victory Hammer S Owner's Manual

Front Brake Lever

Pull the front brake lever toward the handlebar and release it. It should move freely and
smoothly, and it should return to its rest position quickly when released. You should feel a
firm resistance in the lever within the first 3/4 inch (19 mm) of lever travel.
If the lever fails to perform as stated, service the brake lever before riding. See the VICTORY
Service Manual or your authorized VICTORY dealer.

Lever reach (distance to the hand grip) is adjust-
able.
1. Pull and hold the lever away from the grip.
2. To increase reach distance, turn the adjuster

on the lever.
3. To decrease reach distance, turn the adjuster
to align a higher number to the indicator
mark on the lever.
