13. Now that the caliper and pads have been replaced, you will need to check the
brake peddle for firmness. If it seems a little soft you may have to bleed the
brake system. First check the rear brake reservoir for the proper fluid level.
That procedure is described below.
Spilling Brake fluid can damage painted, plastic or rubber parts.
Place a rag over these parts whenever the system is serviced.
Should the brake system need to be bled refer to the following for "Bleeding
GL1800 Spyder Original Disc Brakes" If not, reinstall the wheels, and Carefully
remove the Jack stands, and lower the Trike.
Road test the Trike to insure brake peddle is firm, and the brakes are solid. Bleeding
or re-bleeding may be required. Do Not Ride the Trike with a SOFT Brake Pedal.
WARNING
Remove the right engine side
cover.
Check the fluid level in the rear
brake reservoir. If the level is near
the "LOWER" level line, remove the
reservoir cap, and diaphragm. Fill
the reservoir with DOT 4 brake fluid
from a sealed container to the
"UPPER" level line. Install the
diaphragm, and reservoir cap.
Reinstall the right engine side
cover.
