Checking the brake fluid
level
Front brake
1. Minimum level mark
Rear brake
1. Minimum level mark
Insufficient brake fluid may allow air
to enter the brake system, possibly
causing it to become ineffective.
Before riding, check that the brake
fluid is above the minimum level mark
and replenish if necessary. A low bra-
ke 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.
Observe these precautions:
●
When checking the fluid level,
make sure that the top of the bra-
ke fluid reservoir is level.
●
Use only the recommended qua-
lity brake fluid, otherwise the rub-
ber seals may deteriorate, cau-
sing leakage and poor braking
performance.
●
Refill with the same type of brake
fluid. Mixing fluids may result in a
harmful chemical reaction and
lead to poor braking performan-
ce.
●
Be careful that water does not
enter the brake fluid reservoir
when refilling. Water will signifi-
cantly lower the boiling point of
the fluid and may result in vapor
lock.
●
Brake fluid may deteriorate pain-
ted surfaces or plastic parts.
Always clean up spilled fluid
immediately.
●
As the brake pads wear, it is nor-
mal for the brake fluid level to
gradually go down. However, if
the brake fluid level goes down
suddenly, have a Yamaha dealer
check the cause.
