Dear Dealers,
This bulletin is to inform you that, following reports of a slight elongation of the rear brake

rear brake master cylinder – yellow, and ABS control unit to rear brake caliper - blue) are now
available for the model concerned in order to prevent this condition.

ABS control unit /

hose Part
no.61912002A

ABS control unit /

cylinder hose part no.

We remind you that the rear brake lines must be installed on vehicles if Clients complain
about a slight elongation of the rear brake pedal travel over time and with use.
Always remind Clients that correct brake operation must always be checked before each use of
the motorcycle, as indicated in the Use and Maintenance Manual, and that it is essential to
have the braking systems maintained as prescribed in the maintenance schedule, changing
the brake fluid every 24 months.
Moreover, we inform you that this upgrade is NOT mandatory, but optional since it has to
be performed only if the Client reports such condition.

Service Solution
WARNING
The replacement procedure of the rear brake hoses described in the document is not
particularly difficult, however, for the operation to be completed successfully and to
comply with the set time, it is necessary to thoroughly follow the sequence of the
indicated operations.
We recommend taking your time to fully understand the procedure before
attempting its implementation on the motorcycle (you may print the document in
color for a better understanding).
We also remind you that the work environment where you carry out the procedure
and the tools and equipment used (wrenches and gloves) must be clean.
NOTE
We hereby inform you that this operation is carried out exclusively on the primary
circuit of the rear brake system for which it is sufficient to perform the traditional
bleeding procedure; NO specific bleeding procedure is hence required for the
secondary circuit (circuit inside the ABS control unit).
