Checking the brake lever free play
There should be no free play at the brake
lever end. If there is free play, have a Be-
nelli dealer inspect the brake system.
WARNING
A soft or spongy feeling in the brake
lever can indicate the presence of air
in the hydraulic system. If there is air in
the hydraulic system, have a Benelli de-
aler bleed the system before operating
the vehicle. Air in the hydraulic system
will diminish the braking performance,
which may result in loss of control and
an accident.
Brake light switches
The brake light, which is activated by the
brake pedal and brake lever, should come
on just before braking takes effect.
If necessary, have a Benelli dealer adjust
the brake light switches.
Checking the front and rear brake
pads
The front and rear brake pads must be
checked for wear at the intervals specified
in the periodic maintenance and lubrica-
tion chart.
Front brake pads
Each front brake pad is provided with
wear indicators, which allows you to
check the brake pad wear without having
to disassemble the brake. To check the
brake pad wear, check the position of the
wear indicators while applying the brake.
If a brake pad has worn to the point that a
wear indicator almost touches the brake
disc, have a Benelli dealer replace the bra-
ke pads as a set.
