Front brake pad inspection
Inspect the front brake pads and discs for damage and wear. If
the pad thickness
A
is less than 0.059 in. (1.5mm) or the disc
thickness
B
is less than 0.118 in. (3.0mm), have your dealer
replace them. Replacement of brake components requires
professional knowledge. These procedures should be performed
by your dealer.
NOTE
Wheels must be removed to check brake pads.
CAUTION
After servicing:
• Make sure the brakes operate smoothly and that the lever
free play is correct.
• Make sure the brakes do not drag and the brake
operation is not spongy.
• All air is bled from the brake system.
