WARNING
@ This motorcycle is fitted with super
high-speed running tires. The fol-
lowing points must be observed in
order for you to make fully effective
use of these tires.l
Never fail to use the specified
tires in tire replacement. Other
tires may have a danger of
bursting at super high-speeds.
l
New tires have a relatively low
grip on the road surface until
they have been slightly worn.
Therefore, approximately 100 km
should be traveled at normal
speed before any high-speed
riding is done.
l
Before any high-speed runs, the
tires should be warmed-up suf-
ficiently.
l
Always inflate to the correct tire
pressure according to the oper-
ating conditions.
@
EAU00687
WheelsTo ensure maximum performance,
long service, and safe operation, note
the following:l
Always inspect the wheels before
a ride. Check for cracks, bends, or
warpage of the wheels. If any ab-
normal condition exists in a wheel,
consult a Yamaha dealer. Do not
attempt even small repairs to the
wheel. If a wheel is deformed or
cracked, it must be replaced.
l
Tires and wheels should be bal-
anced whenever either one is
changed or replaced. Failure to
have a wheel balanced can result
in poor performance, adverse han-
dling characteristics, and short-
ened tire life.
l
Ride at moderate speeds after
changing a tire since the tire sur-
face must first be broken in for it to
develop its optimal characteristics.
EAU00713
Brake light switch adjustmentThe rear brake light switch is activated
by the brake pedal and is properly ad-
justed when the brake light comes on
just before braking takes effect. To ad-
just the rear brake light switch, hold the
switch body so it does not rotate while
turning the adjusting nut.
Turn the adjusting nut in direction a
to
make the brake light come on earlier.
Turn the adjusting nut in direction b
to
make the brake light come on later.1. Brake light switch

CAUTION:@ Avoid touching the glass part of a
bulb. Keep it free from oil; other-
wise, the transparency of the glass,
life of the bulb, and luminous flux
will be adversely affected. If oil gets
on a bulb, thoroughly clean it with a
cloth moistened with alcohol or lac-
quer thinner. @4. Install the bulb holder cover and
reconnect the headlight connec-
tors. If the headlight beam adjust-
ment is necessary, ask a Yamaha
dealer to make that adjustment.

CAUTION:@ l
Avoid using strong acidic wheel
cleaners, especially on spoked
wheels. If you do use such
products for hard-to-remove
dirt, do not leave it on any long-
er than instructed, then thor-
oughly rinse it off with water,
immediately dry the area and
apply a corrosion protection
spray.
l
Improper cleaning can damage
windshields, cowlings, panels
and other plastic parts. Use
only a soft, clean cloth or
sponge with mild detergent and
water to clean plastic.
l
Do not use any harsh chemical
products on plastic parts. Be
sure to avoid using cloths or
sponges which have been in
contact with strong or abrasive
cleaning products, solvent or
thinner, fuel (gasoline), rust re-
movers or inhibitors, brake flu-
id, antifreeze or electrolyte.
l
Do not use high-pressure wash-
ers or steam-jet cleaners since
they cause water seepage and
deterioration in the following ar-
eas: seals (of wheel bearings,
swingarm bearings, forks and
brakes), electric components
(couplers, connectors, instru-
ments, switches and lights),
breather hoses and vents.
l
For motorcycles equipped with
a windshield: Do not use strong
cleaners or hard sponges as
they will cause dulling or
scratching. Some cleaning
compounds for plastic may
leave scratches on the wind-
shield. Test the product on a
small hidden part of the wind-
shield to make sure they do not
leave any marks. If the wind-
shield is scratched, use a quali-
ty plastic polishing compound
after washing.
@After riding in the rain, near the sea oron salt-sprayed roadsSince sea salt or salt sprayed on the
roads in the winter are extremely corro-
sive in combination with water, carry
out the following steps after each ride
in the rain, near the sea or on salt-
sprayed roads. (Salt sprayed in the
winter may remain on the roads well
into spring.)
