Front Brake Adjustment
The front braking system has 2 adjustment points, one for major and one for minor adjustments.
Follow the procedures below to adjust the front brakes. If adjustment fails to solve a braking problem,
It is possible that the brake shoes may have excessive wear and need replacing. Contact your local
Monster Moto dealer to have your motorcycle serviced.
