Front brake pad inspection
Each brake pad is provided with a wear indicator
groove. The indicator grooves allow checking of
brake pad wear without disassembling the brake.
Apply the brake and inspect 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.
NOTE:
_
The wheels need to be removed to inspect the
brake pads. (See pages 8-85–8-87 for wheel re-
moval and installation procedures.)
