BRAKING SYSTEM
The brake system is a hydraulic disc type. The front brakes are controlled by the driver’s right-side hand lever and the
rear brake is controlled by the driver’s right-side foot pedal. The front and rear braking systems run independent of
one another and each has its own master cylinder and fluid reservoir. For maximum safety and durability, your
motorcycle uses D.O.T. approved brake lines throughout both front and rear systems.
Since the front braking system is the primary brake and supplies as much as 70% or more of the braking power, a
dual four-piston caliper, front braking system has been engineered for maximum power. The rear brake system is a
single, four-piston caliper design.
NOTE: FOR NORMAL BRAKING, APPLY BOTH THE FRONT AND REAR BRAKES WHILE DOWN-SHIFTING TO
MATCH YOUR ROAD SPEEDS. FOR MAXIMUM BRAKING, CLOSE THE THROTTLE AND FIRMLY APPLY BOTH
FRONT AND REAR BRAKES; THEN PULL IN THE CLUTCH LEVER BEFORE COMING TO A COMPLETE STOP
TO PREVENT ENGINE STALL.
WARNING
BRAKES ARE MOST EFFICIENT WHEN EQUALLY BALANCED BETWEEEN BOTH FRONT AND REAR
BRAKES FOR BRAKING AND STOPPING. NEVER APPLY BRAKES SO STRONGLY THAT FRONT OR REAR
WHEELS LOCK UP. THIS WILL CAUSE LOSS OF DRIVER CONTROL AND MAY RESULT IN PERSONAL
INJURY. ALWAYS APPLY BRAKES SMOOTHLY AND BALANCE BETWEEN FRONT AND REAR WHEELS.
WET OR OILY SURFACES GREATLY INCREASE THE CHANCE OF REAR WHEEL LOCK WHEN APPLYING
THE BRAKES. LOOSE SURFACES SUCH AS GRAVEL MAKE IT VERY DIFFICULT TO PREVENT FRONT
WHEEL LOCK AND LOSS OF STEERING.
CAUTION: INSPECT AND MAINTAIN THE FLUID LEVEL IN BOTH FRONT AND REAR MASTER CYCLINDERS
AND ASSURE THAT ALL BRAKE PADS HAVE ADEQUATE THICKNESS TO KEEP YOUR BRAKING SYSTEM
PERFORMING PROPERLY.
