FRONT BRAKE
This motorcycle has hydraulic disc front
brakes . As the brake pads wear, b rake
fluid level drops, automatically com
pensating for wear.
There are no adjustments to peform , but
duid level and pad wear must be inspect
ed periodically. The system must be
inspected frequently to ensure there are
no fluid leaks .
If the brake lever fre e travel becomes
excessive and the brake pads are not
vorn beyond the recommended limit
,page 6 8 ) , there is probably air in the
brake system and it must be bled out. See
your authorized Honda dealer for this
service.
