Pre-Ride Inspections
Tires
Tire Pressure
Check tire pressure before riding, when the tires are cold. This will provide the most accurate
reading, as riding warms the tires and increases tire air pressure.
Adjust tire pressure as needed based on the total weight of your intended load. See page 77.
Tire Condition
Inspect the tire sidewalls, road contact surface and tread base. If inspection reveals cuts,
punctures, cracks or other wear or damage, replace the tire before riding.
Tire Tread Depth
Measure the tread depth near the center of the tread on both tires. See page 77. Replace any
tire with a tread depth of less than 1/16” (1.7 mm).
Front Brake Lever
1. Pull the front brake lever toward the han-
dlebar and hold it. The lever should
move freely and smoothly. It should not
move more than 3/4 inch (19 mm) before
resistance is firm. It should continue to
feel firm, without loss of pressure, until
the lever is released.
2. Release the lever. It should return to its
rest position quickly when released.
3. If the front brake lever fails to perform
as stated, service the brake lever before
riding.
4. See page 33 for front brake lever reach
adjustments.
Front Brake Fluid Level
1. Straddle the motorcycle and bring it to the fully upright position. Position the handlebars
so that the fluid reservoir is level.
2. View the fluid level through the sight glass. The fluid should be clear. Replace cloudy or
contaminated fluid.
3. The fluid level should be at or above the top of the sight glass. Add brake fluid if neces-
sary. See page 75.
