brake fluid reservoirs to check for the presence of brake fluid. If necessary, turn the
handlebars from side to side or gently shake the vehicle to agitate the fluid.

If the sight glass remains clear, see a Harley Davidson dealer.
NOTE:
If the brake system is not leaking, there should never be a need to add fluid. If the fluid level
is low, the pads are probably worn and need to be replaced. By replacing the pads, the fluid
level will rise.
Use only DOT 4 HYDRAULIC BRAKE FLUID (Part No. 99953 99A) and replace the brake
fluid every 2 years. See a Harley Davidson dealer.

Brake Pads
Inspect brake pads for wear at service maintenance
intervals. If you ride under adverse conditions (steep hills,
heavy traffic, etc.), inspect more frequently. Excessively
worn brake pads can lead to brake failure, which could
result in death or serious injury. (00052a)
Always replace brake pads in complete sets for correct
and safe brake operation. Improper brake operation could
result in death or serious injury. (00111a)
Brakes are a critical safety component. Contact a Harley
