NOTE
This vehicle is equipped with
front and rear disk brakes operated by
independent hydraulic circuits.
The front brake is a twin-disk brake (one
disk on either side of the wheel).
The rear brake uses a single disk (fitted to
the right side of the wheel).
The following information applies to both
braking systems.
Brake fluid level decreases as the brake
pads wear down.
The front brake reservoir is located on the
right handlebar, close to the front brake
lever fitting.
The rear brake reservoir is located on the
vehicle right side, close to the rear brake
control lever.
