REAR BRAKE
Carefully read p. 22 (BRAKE FLUID - rec-
ommendations) and (DISC BRAKES).
CHECKING
Position the vehicle on firm and
flat ground.
◆
Keep the vehicle in vertical position, so
that the fluid contained in the tank (1) is
parallel to the plug (2).
◆
Make sure that the fluid level exceeds
the "
MIN
" mark.
◆
If the fluid does not reach the "
MIN
"
mark, provide for topping up.
TOPPING UP
The brake fluid may flow out of
the tank. Do not operate the rear
brake lever if the brake fluid tank
plug is loose or has been removed.
◆
Unscrew and remove the plug (2).

id while topping up, keep the flu-
id in the tank parallel to the tank rim (in
horizontal position).
◆
Remove the gasket (3).
◆
By means of a syringe, top up the brake
fluid reservoir (1), see p. 72 (LUBRI-
CANT CHART) until reaching the “
MAX
”
mark.
◆

the reverse order.

In case of excessive stroke of the brake
lever, of excessive elasticity or in case
there is air in the circuit, contact your
