NOTE
The procedure to change the front brake fluid is as follows.
Changing the rear brake fluid is the same as for the front brake.
Level the brake fluid reservoir.
Repeat this operation until fresh brake fluid comes out from the plastic hose or the color of the fluid changes.
1. Open the bleed valve [A].
2. Apply the brake and hold it [B].
3. Close the bleed valve [C].
4. Release the brake [D].
NOTE
Remove the clear plastic hose.
Install the diaphragm and reservoir cap.
Follow the procedure below to install the front/rear brake fluid reservoir cap correctly.
Torque - Front Brake Reservoir Cap Stopper Screw: 1.2 N·m (0.12 kgf·m, 11 in·lb)
Torque - Bleed Valves: 7.8 N·m (0.80 kgf·m, 69 in·lb)
If necessary, bleed the air from the lines.
Rear Wheel Rotation Sensor Signal Abnormal (Service Code b 44)
Measure the air gap between the rear wheel rotation sensor
and sensor rotor.
Thickness Gauge [A]
Air Gap
Standard: 0.4 1.6 mm (0.02
0.06 in.)
If the measurement is not the standard, check each part
for deformation and looseness and correct accordingly.
If the measurement is the sta ...
Clutch Plate Warp Inspection
Place each friction plate or steel plate on a surface plate
and measure the gap between the surface plate [A] and
each friction plate or steel plate [B] with a thickness gauge
[C]. The gap is the amount of friction or steel plate warp.
If any plate is warped over the service limit, repla ...
Compression Damping Force Adjustment
To adjust the compression damping force, turn the compression
damping adjuster [A].
The standard adjuster setting is the 4 1/2 turns out from
the fully clockwise position.
WARNINGIf both adjusters are not adjusted
equally, handling
may be impaired and a hazardous condition ma ...
