Rear brake pads
Each rear brake pad is provided with a
wear indicator, which allows you to
check the brake pad wear without hav-
ing to disassemble the brake. To check
the brake pad wear, check the position
of the wear indicator while applying the
brake. If a brake pad has worn to the
point that the wear indicator almost
touches the brake disc, have a Yamaha
dealer replace the brake pads as a set.
Checking the brake fluid level
Before riding, check that the brake fluid
is above the minimum level mark.
Check the brake fluid level with the top
of the reservoir level. Replenish the
brake fluid if necessary.

Improper maintenance can result in
loss of braking ability. Observe
these precautions:
Insufficient brake fluid may al-

tem, reducing braking perfor-
mance.
Clean the filler cap before re-
moving. Use only DOT 4 brake
fluid from a sealed container.
