CAUTION:
lDo not put in any chemical addi-
tives. Engine oil also lubricates
the clutch and additives could
cause clutch slippage.
lBe sure no foreign material en-
ters the crankcase.
8. Start the engine and warm it up for
a few minutes. While warming up,
check for oil leakage. If oil leakage
is found, stop the engine immedi-
ately and check for the cause.

Do not let foreign material enter the
final gear case. Be sure oil does not
get on the tire or wheel.
Oil level inspection
1. Place the motorcycle on a level
place and hold it in an upright posi-
tion. The engine should be cool at
ambient temperature.2. Remove the oil filler bolt and
check the oil level. The oil level
should be at the brim of the filler
hole. Add the recommended oil if
necessary.
Oil replacement
1. Place an oil pan under the final
gear case.
2. Remove the oil filler bolt and drain
bolt to drain the oil.

NOTE:
ÒGL-4Ó is a quality and additive rating.
Hypoid gear oils rated ÒGL-5Ó or ÒGL-6Ó
may also be used.
5. Install and tighten the filler bolt to
the specified torque.
6. After replacing the final gear oil, be
sure to check for oil leakage. Final gear case capacity:
0.19 L
Recommended oil:
SAE 80 API GL-4 Hypoid gear oil
If desired, an SAE 80W90 hypoid
gear oil may be used for all
conditions.

Air filter
The air filter should be cleaned at the
specified intervals. It should be cleaned
more frequently if you are riding in un-
usually wet or dusty areas.
1. Remove the seats. (See page 3-7
for seat removal and installation
procedures.)
2. Remove the fuel tank bolts.
1. Screw
3. Lift the front of the fuel tank up-
ward and position it away from the
air filter. (Do not remove the fuel
tank.)
EW000071
lSupport the fuel tank carefully
during this procedure.
lDo not tilt the fuel tank too
much or pull it too hard be-
cause the fuel hose connec-
tions may become loose
causing fuel leakage.
4. Remove the air filter case cover

Rear brake
Apply the brake and inspect the wear
indicator.
If the indicator reaches the wear limit
line, ask a Yamaha dealer to replace
the shoes.

EAU00732
Inspecting the brake fluid
level
Insufficient brake fluid may let air enter
the brake system, possibly causing the
brakes to become ineffective.
Before riding, check that the brake fluid
is above the minimum level and fill
when necessary.
Observe these precautions:
lWhen checking the fluid level,
make sure the top of the master
cylinder is level by turning the han-
dlebars.
lUse only the designated quality
brake fluid. Otherwise, the rubber
seals may deteriorate, causing
leakage and poor brake perfor-
mance.
NOTE:
If DOT 4 is not available, DOT 3 can be
used.
lRefill with the same type of brake
fluid. Mixing fluids may result in a
harmful chemical reaction and
lead to poor brake performance.
lBe careful that water does not en-
ter the master cylinder when refill-
ing. Water will significantly lower
the boiling point of the fluid and
may result in vapor lock. Recommended brake fluid: DOT 4

lBrake fluid may deteriorate paint-
ed surfaces or plastic parts. Al-
ways clean up spilled fluid
immediately.
lHave a Yamaha dealer check the
cause if the brake fluid level goes
down.
EAU00742
Brake fluid replacement
The brake fluid should be replaced only
by trained Yamaha service personnel.
Have the Yamaha dealer replace the
following components during periodic
maintenance or when they are dam-
aged or leaking:
loil seals (every two years)
lbrake hoses (every four years)

Cable inspection and
lubrication
EW000112
Damage to the outer housing of ca-
bles may lead to internal rusting and
interfere with the cable movement.
Replace damaged cables as soon as
possible to prevent unsafe condi-
tions.
Lubricate the cables and cable ends. If
a cable does not operate smoothly, ask
a Yamaha dealer to replace it.
Recommended lubricant:
Engine oil

Throttle cable and grip
lubrication
The throttle twist grip assembly should
be greased at the time that the cable is
lubricated, since the grip must be re-
moved to get at the end of the throttle
cable. After removing the screws, hold
the end of the cable up in the air and
put in several drops of lubricant. With
the throttle grip disassembled, coat the
metal surface of the grip assembly with
a suitable all-purpose grease.

Check for scratches or damage on the
inner tube and excessive oil leakage
from the front fork.

CAUTION:
Be sure to use motor oils that do not contain anti-fric-
tion modifiers. Passenger car motor oils (often labeled
ÒEnergy ConservingÓ) contain anti-friction additives
which will cause clutch and/or starter clutch slippage,
resulting in reduced component life and poor engine
performance.
