Additional Notes

  • The Indian Springfield hydraulic brake system calls for fluid to be maintained between the minimum and maximum reservoir marks, which reflects a service-fill specification rather than a measured volume capacity.
  • A change interval of 16,000 km or 24 months, whichever comes first, applies to the Springfield hydraulic brake system under normal use conditions.
  • The Springfield Dark Horse 116 carries the same brake fluid service interval of 16,000 km or 24 months under normal use, with fluid level held between the min and max marks.
  • The time-based component of the interval, 24 months, reflects the hygroscopic nature of brake fluid, which absorbs moisture over time and lowers its boiling point regardless of mileage accumulated.
