Manual Description
PERIODIC MAINTENANCE AND ADJUSTMENT. Check each rear brake pad for damage and measure the lining thickness. If a brake pad is damaged or if the lining thickness is less than 1.0 mm (0.04 in), have a dealer replace the brake pads as a set. Insufficient brake fluid may allow air to enter the brake system, possibly causing it to become ineffective.
Before riding, check that the brake fluid is above the minimum level mark and replenish if necessary. 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. 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. Refill with the same type of brake fluid. Mixing fluids may result in a harmful chemical reaction and lead to poor braking performance.
