    Rear brake fluid level.

    This is a wee bit embarassing - How can you tell rear brake fluid level?
    The varadero (125) had a little window on the right side of the block.
    Can see anything on the TA.

    You have to remove the right hand side panel to reveal the reservoir for the rear brake master cylinder. It has a little window in it, so the level should be obvious.

    It's not a case of whether we can fix it or not - it's more a case of how fixed would you like it?

    650?
    Take the right under-seat panel off. You'll see the plastic reservoir.
    Think the 600 is the same.
