Checking the front and rear brake pads
The front and rear brake pads must be checked
for wear at the intervals specified in the periodic
maintenance chart. Each brake pad is provided
with a wear indicator groove, which allows you to
check the brake pad wear without having to disas-
semble the brake. If a brake pad has worn to the
point that the wear indicator groove has almost
disappeared, have a Yamaha dealer replace the
brake pads as a set.
TIP
The wheels need to be removed to check the
brake pads. (See page 9-61.)
