Hydraulic Disc Brake Inspection
1.) The front brake lever should have a firm feeling when operated.
2.) Check the brake fluid level within the master cylinder (1) : keep the bike upright on a
flat surface, turn the handlebars to the right, and check the level mark, the fluid level in the
master cylinder should be at the upper mark on the window.
3.) Visually inspect the front and rear master cylinder for brake fluid leaks. (No cracks in
brake lines (2) or leaks from the master cylinder cap).
4.) Check the brake rotor wear (3). When the thickness of the brake rotor reaches the min-
imum thickness, then the brake rotor should be replaced. The minimum thickness for both
the front and rear brake rotors is 3mm.
Notes:
1.) Hydraulic disc brakes operate under high pressure, to ensure the safe and reliable op-
eration the suggested replacement time of brake fluid hoses, brake pistons and brake fluid
should not exceed the time specified in the manual.
2.) This product uses a dual hydraulic front disc brake system. For additional maintenance
or repair, and to ensure your safety brake system service should only be performed by an
authorized dealer or repair station personnel.
3.) If the brake lever or handle feels spongy, there is air in the brake system.
Any air trapped in the front or rear brake system must first be bled out of the system before
the motorcycle can be operated. Otherwise the air will observably reduce the braking per-
formance, and can also lead to failure and/or accidents. Adjustment and bleeding should be
done by professional dealership personnel.
4.) When replacing the brake rotors, you should not ride immediately. The brake discs
should be scrubbed into the new brake pads before the motorcycle is ridden normally. This
can be done while the unit is on a service rack and while the unit is being test ridden by the
mechanic who performed the repairs.
