EAU00330Sidestand
This model is equipped with an
ignition circuit cut-off system. The
motorcycle must not be ridden
when the sidestand is down. The
sidestand is located on the left side
of the frame. (Refer to page 5-1 for
an explanation of this system.)
EW000044
w
This motorcycle must not be oper-
ated with the sidestand in the
down position. If the stand is not
properly retracted, it could contact
the ground and distract the opera-
tor, resulting in a possible loss of
control. Yamaha has designed into
this motorcycle a lockout system
to assist the operator in fulfilling
the responsibility of retracting the
sidestand. Please check carefully
the operating instructions listed
below and if there is any indication
of a malfunction, return the motor-
cycle to a Yamaha dealer immedi-
ately for repair.
