NOTICE
Brake Fluid Level inspection (Front and Rear Brake Reservoirs)
With the front or rear brake reservoir positioned horizontaly, the brake fluid must always be above the lower level line.
If the brake fluid in the front or rear brake reservoir is below the lower level line, check for fluid leaks in the brake line and fill the reservoir to the upper level line. (The step inside the front and rear brake reservoirs indicate the upper level.)
WARNING
Mixing brands and types of brake fluid can reduce the brake system’s effectiveness and cause an accident resulting in injury or death. Do not mix two brands of brake fluid. Change the brake fluid in the brake line completely if the brake fluid must be refilled but the type and brand of the brake fluid that is already in the reservoir are unidentified.
Brake Pad Wear Inspection
Inspect the brake pads for wear in accordance with the Periodic Maintenance Chart. If the thickness of any pad in any (front or rear) brake caliper is less than 1 mm (0.04 in.), have both pads in the caliper replaced as a set. Pad replacement should be done by an authorized Kawasaki dealer.
