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.

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.

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