MAINTENANCE
HYDRAULIC DISC BRAKE INSPECTION
 Inspect the brake caliper and brake fluid reservoir for
leakage. If brake fluid leaks, the safety of riding could be
affected.
 Inspect the brake hose for cracks and the joint for leakage.
 Check the brake fluid level in the brake fluid reservoir. If
level is at or below the LOWER mark, inspect brake pads
for wear and hydraulic system for leaks.
 Unscrew the 2 screws on top of the brake fluid container
and add fluid as needed.
WARNING:
Add DOT3 or DOT4 brake fluid only from a sealed con-
tainer. Do not mix brake fluid types. Failure to follow this
warning could cause the brakes to fail, resulting in serious
personal injury.
CHECKING BRAKE PAD WEAR
Brake pad wear differs based on how often you use the
brakes, type of riding, and road conditions. Normally brake
pads tend to wear quicker on wet and dirty roads. Be sure
to check the pads for wear at each maintenance interval.
You can inspect the wear on the pads by using the wear
indicator mark. If the pads are worn, have them replaced
immediately at an authorized service center.
