●

 

After adjusting the brake lever
free play, check the free play
and make sure that the brake is
working properly.

 

●

 

A soft or spongy feeling in the
brake lever can indicate the
presence of air in the hydraulic
system. If there is air in the hy-
draulic system, have a Yamaha
dealer bleed the system before
operating the motorcycle. Air in
the hydraulic system will dimin-
ish the braking performance,
which may result in loss of con-

 

trol and an accident.
