MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES
NOTE: A coolant system that fre-
quently requires coolant indicates
leaks or engine problems. See an au-
thorized Can-Am roadster dealer.
Brakes
WARNING
New brakes will not operate at
their maximum efficiency until
their break-in is completed. Brak-
ing performance may be reduced,
so use extra caution. Brakes take
about300km(200mi)ofriding
with frequent braking to break-in.
For riding with infrequent braking,
allow extra time to break-in the
brakes.
