MAINTENANCE General Maintenance Hydraulic Brake Inspection Frequently inspect the brake lever reserve. Firmly depress the brake A lever and measure the clearance between the lever and handlebar grip. This distance, called brake lever reserve (A), should be no less than 1/2″ (1.3 cm). Brake pads must be replaced when the brake pad material becomes thinner than the backing plate (approximately 1/16″). A kit is available for replacing brake pads. See your dealer. WARNING Properly functioning brakes are vital to your safety. Be sure the brake pads do not drag on disc and that brake lever travel is not excessive. Brake pads must be replaced when the brake pad material becomes thinner than the backing plate (approximately 1/16″). 124
