SETTINGS AND ADJUSTMENTS
Workshop Manual Ed. 03-2012
Front brake lever adjustment and fluid level check (SMR)
The lever (1) can be adjusted (4 settings available) to suit the rider's hand size.
To decrease the lever (1) distance from the handgrip, turn the adjuster screw
(2) COUNTER CLOCKWISE “A”.
Fluid level inside master cylinder tank shall never be below the min. level (3)
indicated on the transparent tank (4).
A decrease of the fluid level will let air into the system, hence an extension of
the lever stroke.
If the brake lever feels mushy when pulled, there may be air in the
brake line or the brake may be defective: CHECK THE BRAKING
SYSTEM (see Section "L").
Too much brake lever free play may reduce braking action: CHECK
BRAKE PAD THICKNESS (see Section "L").
Do not spill brake fluid onto any painted surface or lens (for example
lights lens).
Do not mix two brands of fluid. Completely change the brake fluid
in the brake system if you wish to switch to another fluid brand.
Brake fluid may cause irritation. Avoid contact with skin or eyes.
In case of contact, flush thoroughly with water and call a doctor if
your eyes were exposed.
