• Brake
This vehicle uses a front disc and rear drum
brake system. Correct operation of the
brakes is very important for safe riding. The
brake system should be regularly inspected
to ensure the utmost safety.
• Rear Brake Adjustment
Rear brake lever freeplay is 10-20mm.
Turn the cable adjuster nut to make the ad-
justment at the rear drum brake cable adjust-
er shown above.
• Brake Pads / Shoes
Inspect the front brake pads and rear brake
shoes. Once they have reached the minimum
thickness, replace them.
• Brake Fluid Level
As the brake pads
wear, the brake
fluid will decrease as
the fluid fills the brake
piston. The front
brake master cylinder
is on the right side of the handlebars. If the
fluid level is below the minimum mark add
fluid to the reservoir. Make sure the fluid
level is above the lower mark. If the fluid is
below the lower mark, please add brake fluid.
Check the brake fluid level regularly.
• Brake System
Please inspect the brake system daily.
1. Check for brake fluid leaks.
2. Check levers for proper brake pressure/
adjustment.
Caution:
This vehicle uses DOT 4 brake fluid.
DO
NOT use fluid from an open container or of
a different type. Please DO NOT get brake
fluid on painted surfaces as it will damage
them.
