9 Brake system - check

I

1 A routine general check of the brake system will ensure that any problems are discovered and remedied before the rider's safety is jeopardised.

2 Check the brake lever and pedal for loose connections, improper or rough action, excessive play, bends and other damage. On R and T models, check the rear brake linkage. Renew any worn or damaged parts (see Chapter 7).

3 Make sure all brake fasteners are tight. On disc brakes, check the brake pads for wear (see Section 3) and make sure the fluid level in the reservoir is correct (see Daily (pre-ride) checks). Look for leaks at the hose connections and check for cracks in the hose (seeillustration). If the lever or pedal is spongy, bleed the brakes (see Chapter 7). On R and T models, check the rear brake shoes for wear and check for the correct amount of freeplay at the brake pedal tip (see Sections 3 and 4).

4 Make sure the brake light operates when the front brake lever is pulled in. The front brake light switch, mounted on the underside of the master cylinder, is not adjustable. If it fails to operate properly, check it (see Chapter 9).

5 Make sure the brake light comes on just before the rear brake takes effect. If adjustment is necessary, hold the rear brake light switch and turn the adjuster ring on the switch body until the brake light is activated when required (see illustration).The switch is mounted on the inside of the rider's right-hand footrest bracket. If the brake light comes on too late, turn the ring clockwise. If the brake light comes on too soon or is permanently on, turn the ring anti-clockwise. If the switch doesn't operate the brake light, check it (see Chapter 9).
