PERIODIC MAINTENANCE AND MINOR REPAIR EW000109 EAU01799 a. Distance between brake pedal and footrest EAU01746 Adjusting the brake pedal position The top of the brake pedal should be positioned approximately 3.9 in (100 mm) above the top of the footrest as shown. Periodically check the brake pedal position and, if necessary, have a Yamaha dealer adjust it. WARNING A soft or spongy feeling in the brake pedal can indicate the presence of air in the hydraulic system. If there is air in the hydraulic system, have a Yamaha dealer bleed the system before operating the motorcycle. Air in the hydraulic system will diminish the braking performance, which may result in loss of control and an accident. @ @ Adjusting the rear brake light switch The rear brake light switch, which is activated by the brake pedal, is properly adjusted when the brake light comes on just before braking takes effect. Since the brake light switch is a component of the cruise control system, it must be adjusted by a Yamaha dealer, who has the necessary professional knowledge and experience. 7 7-27
