@ This motorcycle must not be operat-
ed with the sidestand in the down
position. If the stand is not properly
retracted, it could contact the
ground and distract the operator, re-
sulting in a possible loss of control.
Yamaha has designed into this
motorcycle a lockout system to as-
sist the operator in fulfilling the re-
sponsibility of retracting the
sidestand. Please check carefully
the operating instructions listed be-
low and if there is any indication of a
malfunction, return the motorcycle
to a Yamaha dealer immediately for

ways clean up spilled fluid
immediately.
l
Have a Yamaha dealer check the
cause if the brake fluid level goes
down.

Engine overheating
EW000070
WARNING
@ Do not remove the radiator cap when the engine and radiator are hot. Scalding hot fluid and steam may be blown
out under pressure, which could cause serious injury. Open the radiator cap as follows. Wait until the engine has
cooled. Remove the radiator cap stopper by removing the screw. Place a thick rag like a towel over the radiator cap
and slowly rotate the cap counterclockwise to the detent. This procedure allows any residual pressure to escape.
When the hissing sound has stopped, press down on the cap while turning counterclockwise and remove it. @NOTE:@ If it is difficult to get the recommended coolant, tap water can be temporarily used, provided that it is changed to the recom-
mended coolant as soon as possible. @
Wait until the
engine has cooled.
Check the coolant level in the
reservoir tank and/or radiator.
Level is OK.Level is low, check the
cooling system for leakage.
No
leakage.Leakage.
Ask a Yamaha dealer to inspect
and repair the cooling system.Add coolant. (See NOTE.)
Restart the engine. If the engine overheats again, ask a
Yamaha dealer to inspect and repair the cooling system.
