Rear brake pad inspection
Each brake pad is provided with a wear indi-
cator groove. The indicator grooves allow
checking of brake pad wear without disas-
sembling the brake. Apply the brake and in-
spect the wear indicator grooves. If a brake
pad is worn to the point that the wear indicator
groove is almost in contact with the disc plate,
ask a Yamaha dealer to replace the brake
pads as a set.

Brake fluid level check
Insufficient brake fluid may let air enter the
brake system, possibly causing the brakes to
become ineffective.
Before riding, check that the brake fluid is
above the minimum level mark and replenish
if necessary. A low brake fluid level may indi-
cate 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.
