WARNING
EWA13530
Proper brake hose routing is essential to in-
sure safe vehicle operation. Refer to “CABLE
ROUTING” on page 2-33.
NOTE:
• Install the brake hose at an 101° angle to the
front brake master cylinder as shown in the il-
lustration.
• While holding the brake hose, tighten the brake
hose union bolt as shown.
• Turn the handlebar to the left and right to make
sure the brake hose does not touch other parts
(e.g., wire harness, cables, leads). Correct if
necessary.
3. Install:
• Front brake light switch
NOTE:
Before fully installing the front brake light switch,
be sure to completely install the rubber cover
over the switch. Also, be sure not to twist the
front brake light switch lead when screwing in
the switch.
4. Fill:
• Brake master cylinder reservoir
(with the specified amount of the recom-
mended brake fluid)
WARNING
EWA13540
• Use only the designated brake fluid. Other
brake fluids may cause the rubber seals to
deteriorate, causing leakage and poor
brake performance.
• Refill with the same type of brake fluid that
is already in the system. Mixing brake fluids
may result in a harmful chemical reaction,
leading to poor brake performance.
• When refilling, be careful that water does
not enter the brake master cylinder reser-
voir. Water will significantly lower the boil-
ing point of the brake fluid and could cause
vapor lock.
CAUTION:
ECA13540
Brake fluid may damage painted surfaces
and plastic parts. Therefore, always clean up
any spilt brake fluid immediately.
5. Bleed:
• Brake system
Refer to “BLEEDING THE HYDRAULIC
BRAKE SYSTEM” on page 3-20.
6. Check:
• Brake fluid level
Below the minimum level mark “a”

recommended brake fluid to the proper level.
Refer to “CHECKING THE BRAKE FLUID
LEVEL” on page 3-18.
