BRAKE SYSTEM
The front and rear brakes are hydraulic disc brakes that are
activated by moving a single brake lever towards the handlebars.
These brakes are self-regulating. As the brake disc wears away,
the brake fluid level will drop, and the leakage in the system will
cause the fluid level to drop.
!
WARNING
Brake fluid levels must be checked periodically: overfilling of the brake
cylinder may cause brake resistance or brake locking, which may result
in serious injury or death. Keep brake fluid at the recommended level
and do not overfill. Must check brake disc brake disc wear condition
regularly: if brake disc wear, should be replaced.
The following inspection is recommended to keep the braking
system in good working condition. If the brake is in heavy use
during normal operation, check it frequently.
1. Always keep the brake fluid at an appropriate level. Please
refer to master cylinder/brake fluid section for details.
2. Check the braking system for liquid leakage.
3. Check whether the brake travels too long or feels soft.
4. Check whether the friction gasket is worn, damaged or loose.
When replacing the brake gasket, the brake pad must be
replaced when the remaining limit thickness of the brake pad
is not less than 1mm.
5. Check the safety and surface condition of the disc. Use the
recommended brake cleaner or liqueur to clean any grease.
Do not use spray lubricants or other petroleum-based
products. If any damage (crack, excessive corrosion, warping)
is found, please check the dealer's service before operation.
