reliability of the brake system,
make sure that the brake pads
are not worn beyond their mini-
mum thickness.
Make sure ground is level and
firm and park motorcycle.
Visually inspect the left and
right brake pads to ascertain
their thickness. Direction of
view: between wheel and fork
tube at brake caliper.
