FRONT BRAKE

INSTALLING THE FRONT BRAKE MASTER
CYLINDER
1. Install:
Front brake master cylinder assembly
Front brake master cylinder holder
TIP
Install the front brake master cylinder holder
with the “UP” mark “a” facing up.
Align the end of the front brake master cylinder
holder with the punch mark “b” on the handle-
bar.
First, tighten the upper bolt, then the lower bolt.
There should be more than 11 mm (0.43 in) for
clearance between the right handlebar switch
and the front brake master cylinder holder. Al-
so, the punch mark should be seen.
2. Install:
Brake hose (front brake master cylinder to
hydraulic unit)
Brake hose gaskets
Brake hose union bolt
WARNING
EWA13530
Proper brake hose routing is essential to in-
sure safe vehicle operation.
TIP
Install the brake pipe so that paint mark “a” on
the pipe faces to the rear of the vehicle.
Attach the brake hose so that its angle is 15° to
25° against the straight line in parallel with the
ceiling plane of the master cylinder.
While holding the brake hose, tighten the union
bolt as shown.
Turn the handlebar to the left and right to make
sure the brake hose does not touch other parts
(e.g., wire harness, cables, leads). Correct if
necessary.
3. Fill:
Brake master cylinder reservoir
(with the specified amount of the specified
brake fluid)
WARNING
EWA13540
Use only the designated brake fluid. Other
brake fluids may cause the rubber seals to
deteriorate, causing leakage and poor
brake performance.
Refill with the same type of brake fluid that
is already in the system. Mixing brake fluids
may result in a harmful chemical reaction,
leading to poor brake performance.
When refilling, be careful that water does
not enter the brake master cylinder reser-
voir. Water will significantly lower the boil-
ing point of the brake fluid and could cause
vapor lock.
NOTICE
ECA13540
Brake fluid may damage painted surfaces
and plastic parts. Therefore, always clean up
any spilt brake fluid immediately.
4. Bleed:
