Level check
Frequently check the brake fluid tank level,
through the inspection points on the right side of
the handlebar corresponding to the sight glass in
the model ETX or the reference notches in the
model STX.
The brake fluid level must be half of the inspection
sight glass in the model ETX and within the refer-
ence notch MIN and MAX in the model STX if the
tanks are parallel to the ground.
