Brake fluid level inspection
Insufficient brake fluid may let air enter the
brake system, possibly causing the brakes to
become ineffective.
Before riding, check that the brake fluid is above
the minimum level mark and replenish if neces-
sary. 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.
NOTE:
To access the rear brake fluid reservoir cap,
remove the seat (see page 4-29), remove the
cowling bolt and quick fastener, and then pull
the cowling slightly outward as shown.
