● After adjusting the brake lever

free play, check the free play

and make sure that the brake is

working properly.

● A soft or spongy feeling in the

brake lever can indicate the

presence of air in the hydraulic

system. If there is air in the hy-

draulic system, have a Yamaha

dealer bleed the system before

operating the motorcycle. Air in

the hydraulic system will dimin-

ish the braking performance,

which may result in loss of con-

trol and an accident.
