Each front brake pad is provided with
wear indicators, which allows you to
check the brake pad wear without hav-
ing to disassemble the brake. To check
the brake pad wear, check the position
of the wear indicators while applying
the brake. If a brake pad has worn to
the point that a wear indicator almost
touches the brake disc, have a
Yamaha dealer replace the brake pads
as a set.

and measure the lining thickness. If a
brake pad is damaged or if the lining
