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 and lubrication chart. Each brake
pad is provided with a wear indicator groove,
which allows you to check the brake pad wear
without having to disassemble the brake. If a
brake pad has worn to the point that the wear in-
dicator 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 8-61.)
