Rear brake pad inspection
Inspect the brake pad for damage or wear.
Wear indicator grooves are provided on
the brake pad. These indicators allow
checking of brake pad wear without disas-
sembling the brake. Inspect the grooves. If
they have almost disappeared, ask a
Yamaha dealer to replace the pad.

Inspecting the brake fluid level
Insufficient brake fluid may let air enter the
brake system, possibly causing the brakes
to become ineffective.
Before riding, check that the brake fluid is
above the lower level and replenish when
necessary. The rear brake fluid master cyl-
inder reservoir is located under panel C.
