Engine oilOil level inspection
1. Place the motorcycle on a level
place and hold it in an upright posi-
tion. Warm up the engine for seve-
ral minutes.NOTE:@ Be sure the motorcycle is positioned
straight up when checking the oil level.
A slight tilt toward the side can result in
false readings. @
2. With the engine stopped, check
the oil level through the level win-
dow located at the lower part of
the right side crankcase cover.NOTE:@ Wait a few minutes until the oil level
settles before checking. @3. The oil level should be between
maximum and minimum marks. If
the level is low, fill the engine with
sufficient oil to reach the specified
level.Engine oil and oil filter cartridge re-
placement
1. Remove cowling A. (See page 6-5
for removal and installation proce-
dures.)
2. Warm up the engine for several
minutes.
3. Stop the engine. Place an oil pan
under the engine and remove the
oil filler cap.
4. Remove the drain bolt and drain
the oil.

10. Start the engine and warm it up for
several minutes. While warming
up, check for oil leakage. If oil
leakage is found, stop the engine
immediately and check for the
cause.NOTE:@ After the engine is started, the oil level
indicator light should go off if the oil is at

CoolantCheck the coolant level in the reservoir
tank when the engine is cold. The cool-
ant level will vary with engine tempera-
ture. The coolant level is satisfactory if
it is between the minimum and maxi-
mum marks on the tank. If the coolant
level is at or below the minimum mark,
fill with tap water (soft water) to bring
the level up to the maximum mark.
Have a Yamaha dealer change the
coolant every two years. Recommended oil:
See page 8-1.
