Front

Rear

The front and rear brake shoes must be
checked for wear at the intervals spec-
ified in the periodic maintenance and
lubrication chart. Each brake is provid-
ed with a wear indicator, which allows
you to check the brake shoe wear with-
out having to disassemble the brake.
To check the brake shoe wear, check
the position of the wear indicator while
applying the brake. If a brake shoe has
worn to the point that the wear indica-
tor reaches the wear limit line, have a
Yamaha dealer replace the brake
shoes as a set.
