3. Install:
clutch lever 1
Lubricate the clutch lever pivot bolt with lithium
soap base grease.
4. Fill:
clutch master cylinder reservoir
(with the specified amount of the recom-
mended clutch fluid)
Recommended clutch fluid
Brake fluid DOT 4
Use only the designated clutch fluid. Other
clutch fluids may cause the rubber seals to
deteriorate, causing leakage and poor
clutch performance.
Refill with the same type of clutch fluid that
is already in the system. Mixing clutch
fluids may result in a harmful chemical
reaction, leading to poor clutch perfor-
mance.
When refilling, be careful that water does
not enter the reservoir. Water will signifi-
cantly lower the boiling point of the clutch
fluid and could cause vapor lock.
Clutch fluid may damage painted surfaces
or plastic parts. Therefore, always clean up
any spilt clutch fluid immediately.
In order to ensure a correct reading of the clutch
fluid level, make sure that the top of the reser-
voir is horizontal.
5. Bleed:

Refer to “BLEEDING THE HYDRAULIC
CLUTCH SYSTEM” in chapter 3.
