Check to see if any brake fluid is leaking out of
the pipe joints or master cylinders. Apply the
brakes firmly for one minute. If there is any
leakage, have the machine inspected by a
Yamaha dealer.
Brake operation

Test the brakes at slow speed after starting out
to make sure they are working properly. If the
brakes do not provide proper braking perfor-
mance, inspect the brake pads for wear. (See
page 8-59.)
