Checking the brake pedal
Have a Yamaha dealer check the brakes at the in-
tervals specified in the periodic maintenance and
lubrication chart. There should be no free play in
the brake pedal. The brakes should operate
smoothly and there should be no brake drag. If the
brakes feel soft or spongy, this could indicate air in
the brake system. Have a Yamaha dealer check
the brake system if necessary.

kinked.Lubricate the cable ends. If the cables do not oper-
ate smoothly, ask a Yamaha dealer to replace
them.

3. Rinse the dirt and degreaser off with a garden
hose. Use only enough pressure to do the
job. WARNING! Test the brakes after
washing. Apply the brakes several times
at slow speeds to let friction dry out the
linings. Wet brakes may have reduced
stopping ability, increasing the chance of
an accident. NOTICE: Excessive water
pressure may cause water seepage and
deterioration of wheel bearings, brakes,
transmission seals and electrical devices.
Many expensive repair bills have resulted
from improper high-pressure detergent
applications, such as those available in
coin-operated car washers.
