INSPECTING
NOTE: Whenever a part is worn excessively,
cracked, or damaged in any way, replacement is
necessary.
1. Inspect the pivot bolt securing the brake lever
for wear.
2. Inspect the brake lever for elongation of the
pivot hole.
3. Inspect the reservoir for cracks and leakage.
4. Inspect the brake hose for cracks and deteriora-
tion and the condition of the fittings (threaded
and compression).
5. Inspect the brakelight switch for corrosion,
cracks, missing or broken mounting tabs, or bro-
ken and frayed wiring.
NOTE: If the brakelight switch is determined to
be not serviceable, see Section 5.
INSTALLING
NOTE: Wash all master cylinder components in
new brake fluid before assembling. Do not dry
components.
1. Install the brakelight switch on the master cylin-
der; then install the brake lever and brake lever
lock.
2. Install the master cylinder assembly on the han-
dlebar engaging the alignment stud in the hole in
