Rear disc brake
The
mechanical and hydraulic parts of the rear disc brake are almost
identical with that of the front disc brake.
They consist of a rese
rv
oir situated under the saddle (see Fig.
SA)
and a
master cylinder located on a plate behind the right-hand side pillion foot-
rest support (see Fig. 5). The caliper which contains the
di
sc pads is
identical with that of the front disc brake.
The
procedure for bleeding the system and replacing the disc pads
is
also the same as for the front disc brake.
It
must be noted that there
is
no
metal cover for the rear caliper. Where the front disc brake instructions
state front brake lever, rear brake pedal should be substituted. The
adjustment
controlling the brake pedal position is on the rod which
actuates the master cylinder.
