Brake Lever Adjusters
Warning
Do not attempt to adjust the levers
with the motorcycle in motion as this
may lead to loss of motorcycle control
and an accident.
After adjusting the levers, operate the
motorcycle in an area free from traffic
to gain familiarity with the new lever
setting.
Do not loan your motorcycle to anyone
as they may change the lever setting
from the one you are familiar with
causing loss of motorcycle control and
an accident.
An adjuster is mounted to the front
brake lever. The adjuster allows the
distance from the handlebar to the
brake lever to be changed to suit the
span of the rider's hands.
