the point that a wear indicator almost
touches the brake disc, have a Yamaha
dealer replace the brake pads as a set.

EAU46291

Rear brake pads

Each rear brake pad is provided with
wear indicator grooves, which allow
you to check the brake pad wear with-
out having to disassemble the brake.
To check the brake pad wear, check
the wear indicator grooves. If a brake
pad has worn to the point that a wear
indicator groove almost appears, have
a Yamaha dealer replace the brake
pads as a set.

EAU39371

Checking the brake fluid level 

Front brake

Rear brake

Insufficient brake fluid may allow air to
enter the brake system, possibly caus-
ing it to become ineffective.

Before riding, check that the brake fluid
is above the minimum level mark and
replenish if necessary. A low brake fluid
level may indicate worn brake pads
and/or brake system leakage. If the
brake fluid level is low, be sure to check
the brake pads for wear and the brake
system for leakage.

TIP

The rear brake fluid reservoir is located
behind panel A. (See page 7-9.)

Observe these precautions:

When checking the fluid level,
make sure that the top of the brake
fluid reservoir is level.

Use only the recommended quality
brake fluid, otherwise the rubber
seals may deteriorate, causing
leakage and poor braking perfor-
mance.

Refill with the same type of brake
fluid. Mixing fluids may result in a
harmful chemical reaction and
lead to poor braking performance.
