Sirmons Alignment & Brake

While classic model motorcycles have greater adjustment ranges for brake levers and pedals, modern bikes are a bit less flexible in this area. If you have a newer bike, and riding fatigue is a problem, have the levers and pedals adjusted to a more comfortable position.

If your brake pedal begins to feel spongy, it’s recommended that you have your brake system looked at. This might indicate that air has entered the brake system or that the fluid is low.

If you are going on a trip that will take you through the mountains, especially if you will be towing or carrying a heavier than normal load, have your brake rotors inspected. The heat generated by braking while descending steep grades can cause the rotors to warp.
