FEATURES AND CONTROLS
Brake Lever
Squeeze the brake lever toward
the handlebar to apply the front
and rear brakes. These brakes
are hydraulically activated disc
type brakes that are activated
by only one lever.
Always test brake lever travel
and master cylinder fluid level
before riding. When squeezed,
the lever should feel firm. Any
sponginess would indicate a possible fluid leak or low master cylinder
fluid level, which must be corrected before riding. Contact your dealer
for proper diagnosis and repairs.
Operating the vehicle with a spongy brake lever can result in loss of braking,
which could cause an accident. Never operate the vehicle with a spongy-feeling
brake lever. Always contact your dealer for service before operating the vehicle.
Inspect and maintain the brake fluid level as outlined in this manual. See
page 63.
