: never squeeze the front brake lever with the caliper removed. It is very difficult to force the pads back into the caliper assembly and brake fluid leakage may result.
Caution Improper jacking may cause damage to the fairing or oil filter. Do not apply the jack head to the fairing lower part or the oil filter when jacking up the motorcycle. |
