Both the front and rear brakes are the
hydraulic disc types.
As the brake pads wear, the brake fluid
level drops.
There are no adjustments to perform, but
fluid level and pad wear must be inspected
periodically. The system must be inspected
frequently to ensure there are no fluid leaks.
If the control lever or pedal free travel
becomes excessive and the brake pads are
not worn beyond the recommended limit
(page
), there is probably air in the
brake system and it must be bled. See your
Honda dealer for this service.
Front Brake Fluid Level:
The recommended brake fluid is Honda
DOT 4 brake fluid from a sealed container,
or an equivalent.
With the motorcycle in an upright position,
check the fluid level. It should be above the
LOWER level mark ( ). If the level is at or
below the LOWER level mark ( ), check
the brake pads for wear (page
).
Worn pads should be replaced. If the pads
are not worn, have your brake system
inspected for leaks.
