Front and rear brakes
Brake pedal
- Check that there is no free play in the brake pedal. If there is free play, have a Yamaha dealer check the brake system. (See page .)
- Check the operation of the brake pedal. It should move smoothly and there should be a firm feeling when the brakes are applied. If not, have the vehicle inspected by a Yamaha dealer.
Brake fluid level
Check the brake fluid level. Add fluid if necessary. (See page .)
- Specified brake fluid: DOT 4
Brake fluid leakage
Check to see if any brake fluid is leaking out of the pipe joints or the brake fluid reservoir. Apply the brakes firmly for one minute. If there is any leakage, have the vehicle inspected by a Yamaha dealer.
Brake operation
Check the operation of the brakes at the start of every drive. Test the brakes at slow speed after starting out to make sure they are working properly. If the brakes do not provide proper braking performance, inspect the brake system. (See page .)
