this motorcycle.
EAU49518
Brake lever
The brake lever is located on the right
side of the handlebar. To apply the
front brake, pull the lever toward the
throttle grip.
This model is equipped with a unified
brake system.
When pulling the brake lever, the front
brake and a portion of the rear brake
are applied. For full braking perfor-
mance, apply both the brake lever and
the brake pedal simultaneously.
The unified brake system is monitored
by an ECU, which disables unified
braking and resumes conventional
braking if a malfunction occurs.
Resistance and vibration may be
felt in the brake pedal while the
front brake is being applied and
the unified brake system is en-
abled, but this does not indicate a
malfunction.
The unified brake system does not
function until the vehicle starts
moving.
After coming to a stop while ap-
plying the brake lever, the unified
brake system is still enabled. As
further squeezing of the brake le-
ver will not increase the braking
power of the rear brake, apply the
rear brake should further braking
power be necessary (such as
when parking on a slope).
The unified brake system disables
after the brake lever is released.
The brake system then reverts to
the conventional type.
When the vehicle starts moving,
the unified brake system is re-en-
abled.
The unified brake system does not
function when the brake pedal is
applied alone or before the brake
lever is applied.
The brake lever is equipped with a
brake lever position adjusting dial. To
adjust the distance between the brake
lever and the throttle grip, turn the ad-
justing dial while holding the lever
pushed away from the throttle grip.
