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. Observe these precautions:
1. Lower level
1.
When checking the fluid level, make sure the top of the
master cylinder is level by turning the handlebars.
2.
Use only the designated quality brake fluid. Otherwise,
the rubber seals may deteriorate, causing leakage and
poor brake performance.
Recommended brake fluid:
DOT #4
NOTE:
If DOT #4 is not available, #3 can be used.
