Improper maintenance can result in
loss of braking ability or YCC-S
clutch operation. Observe these pre-
cautions:●
Insufficient brake or YCC-S
clutch fluid may allow air to en-
ter the brake or YCC-S clutch
system, reducing braking or
YCC-S clutch performance.
●
Clean the filler caps before re-
moving. Use only DOT 4 brake
fluid from a sealed container.
●
Use only the specified brake flu-
id; otherwise, the rubber seals
may deteriorate, causing leak-
age.
●
Refill with the same type of
brake fluid. Adding a brake fluid
other than DOT 4 may result in a
harmful chemical reaction.
●
Be careful that water or dust
does not enter the brake or
YCC-S clutch fluid reservoir
when refilling. Water will signifi-
cantly lower the boiling point of
the fluid and may result in vapor
lock, and dirt may clog the ABS
hydraulic unit valves.
NOTICE

Brake fluid may damage painted sur-
faces or plastic parts. Always clean
up spilled fluid immediately.The brake and YCC-S clutch fluid res-
ervoir diaphragms will lose their shape
from the negative pressure if the fluid
level goes down too far. Be sure to re-
turn the diaphragms to their original
shape before reinstalling them.
As the brake pads wear, it is normal for
the brake fluid level to gradually go
down. A low brake fluid level may indi-
cate worn brake pads and/or brake sys-
tem leakage; therefore, be sure to
