Brake System
Front Drum Brake
The distance the front brake lever moves before the brake starts to engage is called free
play. Measure to the tip of the front brake lever. The free play should be within
10-20mm. To make adjustments, either loosen or tighten the tension screws on the left
hand brake lever by rotating them until the desired tension is obtained.
Rear Hydraulic Disc Brake
The XA-150 is equipped with a set of single-cylinder disc brakes. Be careful to check the
brake fluid levels in the main cylinder located on the left handlebar. Always use
non-petroleum brake fluid # 4604. Never mix with other oils or serious damage can
occur to the braking system.
