Servicing Your Honda
Saf ety Precautions Refer to on page .
Both the front and rear brakes are the hydraulic
disc type. As the brake pads wear, the brake
fluid level will drop. A leak in the system will
also cause the level to drop.
Frequently inspect the system to ensure there
are no fluid leaks. Periodically inspect the
brake fluid level and the brake pads for wear.
If the front brake lever or rear brake pedal
freeplay does not feel within the normal range
while riding, check the brake pads. If they are
not worn beyond the recommended limit (page
), there is probably air in the brake system.
See your Honda dealer to have the air bled
from the system.
Never use adjusters other than those designed
for this motorcycle. Install a new adjuster from
the lever side with the lock nut under the head
of the adjuster.
