Brakes
The hydraulic disc braking system on your Honda SXS dissipates the
heat generated by the friction of the brake pads on the disc as the
wheels are slowed.
As the front and rear brake pads wear, the brake fluid level will drop.
A leak in the system will also cause the level to drop.
There are no adjustments to perform, but fluid level and pad wear
must be inspected periodically. The system must also be inspected
frequently to ensure there are no fluid leaks.
If the brake pedal freeplay seems abnormal or the pedal feels
spongy, see your dealer to have the air bled from the system.
Refer to Safety Precautions on page 105.
Push down on the brake pedal to check that the controls operate
normally.
Check for damage to the brake pads and disc plate.
The recommended brake fluid is Honda DOT 4 Brake Fluid, or any
brake fluid of equal quality and performance. Use fresh brake fluid
from a sealed container. Be sure to read the label before opening the
sealed container. An opened container may be contaminated or may
have absorbed moisture from the air.
