6 Battery storage
This motorcycle is equipped with a dig-
ital speedometer and the odometer
memory tends to drain the battery.
When the motorcycle is not used for a
month or longer, be sure to remove the
battery, fully charge it and store it in a
cool, dry place.

CAUTION:@ l
Completely recharge the bat-
tery before storing. Storing a
discharged battery can cause
permanent battery damage.

Use a battery charger designed
for a sealed-type (MF) battery.
Using a conventional battery
charger will cause battery dam-
age. If you do not have a sealed-
type battery charger, contact
your Yamaha dealer.

Always make sure the connec-
tions are correct when reinstall-
ing the battery.
