Every 10,000km usually recommended but you can usually get away 20,000km...

oh sweet what would happen if i didnt re fill it?

You will have no brakes.
You will crash.

Why is it empty?

Don't fill it above the fill mark or you will crash as well .

Put your tools down and back slowly away from your bike - actually, back away very quickly.

If the level is low you probably need new brake pads. Take it to a shop or start doing LOTS of learning.

Check the sight glass level on master cylinder,should be at the top when bike is level.Usually replace every 2 years in most service schedules.
