Rear brake shoe inspection

A wear indicator is provided on the rear brake.
This indicator allows checking of brake shoe wear
without disassembling the brake.
Apply the rear brake and check the position of the
indicator. If the indicator reaches the wear limit
line, ask a Yamaha dealer to replace shoes as a
set.

Brake fluid level check

Insufficient brake fluid may let air enter the brake
system, possibly causing the brakes to become in-
effective.
Before riding, check that the brake fluid is above
the minimum level mark and replenish if neces-
sary. A low brake fluid level may indicate worn
brake pads and/or brake system leakage. If the
brake fluid level is low, be sure to check the brake
pads for wear and the brake system for leakage.
