Before riding, check that the brake fluid is above
the minimum level mark and replenish if neces-
sary. A low brake fluid level may indicate worn
brake pads and/or brake system leakage. If the
brake fluid level is low, be sure to check the brake
pads for wear and the brake system for leakage.
Front brake
Rear brake
NOTE:
To check the rear brake fluid level, remove panel
C. (See page 8-9.)
Observe these precautions:
● When checking the fluid level, make sure that
the top of the brake fluid reservoir is level.
● Use only the recommended quality brake fluid,
otherwise the rubber seals may deteriorate,
causing leakage and poor braking performance.
