Brake Pad Wear

(Refer to the Safety Precautions on page 41.
Brake pad wear depends upon the severity of usage,
the type of riding, and road conditions. (Generally, the
pads will wear faster on wet and dirty roads.)
Inspect the pads at each regular maintenance interval
(page 43).
Front Brake
Check the cutout (1) in each pad.
If either pad is worn to the cutout, replace both pads
as a set. See your Honda dealer for this service.
