Maintenance
Rear Brake Fluid
1. Position the motorcycle on level ground in the fully
upright position.
2. The rear brake fluid reservoir is located near the rear
brake pedal, just inside the right lower leg fairing. Wipe
the fluid container and the area around the reservoir
cover with a clean cloth.
3. If the fluid level is low, inspect brake pads as outlined on
page 95. If pads are not worn beyond the service limit,
inspect the brake system for leaks.
4. To add fluid, remove the reservoir cover. Carefully add
fluid to the recommended level.
Do not overfill.
5. Reinstall the cover and diaphragm.
6. Wipe away any fluid spills. Check for signs of brake
fluid leaks around hoses, fittings, reservoir, and brake
calipers.
