Brake Lever Lubrication
Lubricate at the intervals recommended in the periodic maintenance table. See page 46.
1. Remove the right side mirror.
2. Remove the brake lever pivot nut (10 mm wrench or socket) and pin (4 mm hexagonal
wrench). Note the direction the plunger is installed (if removing). Proper direction is
critical for brake function.
3. Remove any old grease and dirt from the
lever and housing.
4. Lubricate the lever and pivot pin with
VICTORY All Purpose Grease or
equivalent.
5. Reinstall the lever and pivot pin.

7. Check front brake lever movement. See page 33.
8. Reinstall the right side mirror and adjust.
Brake Lines
Inspect all brake hoses and connections for
dampness or stains from leaking or dried fluid.
Tighten any leaking connections and replace
components as necessary. Torque fasteners to
specification. See the VICTORY Service Man-
ual or your authorized VICTORY dealer.
Brake Pads
Inspect front and rear brake pad thickness.
Replace brake pads when wear lines are no lon-
ger visible, or when pad thickness reaches 1.5
mm.
The shielded pad must be installed on the non-
piston side of the caliper. See the VICTORY
Service Manual or your authorized VICTORY
dealer.
Brake Discs
Inspect brake discs for nicks, scratches, cracks or other damage. Inspect the thickness of each
brake disc at four or more locations around the disc. Minimum thickness is stamped on the
inner hub of the disc. If any disc is worn to the minimum thickness at the thinnest point, or if
a disc is damaged, see your VICTORY dealer for replacement.
