@
When installing the brake hose onto the
brake master cylinder, make sure the brake
pipe touches the projection a as shown.
NOTE:
Turn the handlebars to the left and to the right
to make sure the brake hose does not touch
other parts (e.g., wire harness, cables, leads).
Correct if necessary.
3. Fill:
• brake master cylinder reservoir
(with the specified amount of the recom-
mended brake fluid)
WARNING
@
• Use only the designated brake fluid.
Other brake fluids may cause the rubber
seals to deteriorate, causing leakage and
poor brake performance.
• Refill with the same type of brake fluid
that is already in the system. Mixing
brake fluids may result in a harmful
chemical reaction, leading to poor brake
performance.
• When refilling, be careful that water does
not enter the brake master cylinder reser-
voir. Water will significantly lower the
boiling point of the brake fluid and could
cause vapor lock.
CAUTION:
@
Brake fluid may damage painted surfaces
and plastic parts. Therefore, always clean
up any spilt brake fluid immediately.
