The brake fluid level in the reservoirs

Remove the safety clip/reservoir cap
fasteners.
Remove the reservoir cap.
Fill the reservoir to the upper level line
using new DOT 4 fluid from a sealed
container.
Reinstall the reservoir cap ensuring that
the diaphragm seal is correctly installed.
Reinstall the safety clip/reservoir cap
fasteners.
Warning
Brake fluid is hygroscopic which
means it will absorb moisture from the
air.
Any absorbed moisture will greatly
reduce the boiling point of the brake
fluid causing a reduction in braking
efficiency.
Because of this, always replace brake
fluid in accordance with scheduled
maintenance requirements.
Always use new brake fluid from a
sealed container and never use fluid
from an unsealed container or from
one which has been previously
opened.
Do not mix different brands or grades
of brake fluid.
Check for fluid leakage around brake
installations, seals and joints and also
check the brake hoses for splits,
deterioration and damage.
Always rectify any faults before riding.
Failure to observe and act upon any of
these items may cause a dangerous
riding condition leading to loss of
control and an accident.
