Brake fluid
Inspect the brake fluid level and change it periodically. The brake
fluid should also be changed if it becomes contaminated with dirt or
water
.
Liquid recommended
Use D.O.T 3 or D.O.T 4.
Brake fluid level inspection
The front (A) and rear (B) reservoirs must be kept more than half
full with brake fluid. If the brake fluid is insufficient, add brake fluid.
CAUTION
Do not spill brake fluid onto any painted surface. Do not use fluid
from a container that has been left open or that has been unsealed
for a long time. Check for fluid leakage around the fittings. Check
for brake hose damage.
WARNING
Do not mix different types of fluid. Change the brake fluid in the
reservoirs completely if the same type of brake fluid is not available.
Brake wear inspection
If the thickness of either pad, front and rear, is less than 1 mm,
replace both pads as a set. Pad replacement should be carried out
only by an authorized GAS GAS dealer.
STEERING
The steering should always be kept adjusted so that the handlebar
will turn freely but without free play.
