Diagnosis deviceThis model is equipped with a self diag-
nosis for the following circuits.l
Throttle Position Sensor (T.P.S.)
circuit
l
Exhaust Ultimate Power valve
(EXUP) circuit
l
Fuel level indicator circuit
If some trouble should occur in any of
these circuits, the tachometer will re-
peatedly display as follows:
CB-53E
Use this chart to identify what circuit is
faulty according to the specified r/min
displayed.CB-54EIf the tachometer displays as described
above, take note of the specified r/min
and then take your motorcycle to a
Yamaha dealer for repair.
EC000004
CAUTION:@ To prevent engine damage, be sure
to consult a Yamaha dealer as soon
as possible if the tachometer dis-
plays a repeated change in r/min. @
EAU01652
Coolant temperature gaugeThis gauge indicates the coolant tem-
perature when the main switch is on.
The engine operating temperature will
vary with changes in weather and en-
gine load. If the needle points to the red
zone or higher, stop your motorcycle
and let the engine cool. (See page 6-11
for details.)

EC000080
CAUTION:@ Hard water or salt water is harmful
to the engine. You may use distilled
water if you can’t get soft water. @NOTE:@ The radiator fan operation is complete-
ly automatic. It is switched on or off ac-
cording to the coolant temperature in
the radiator. @
EAU01332
Air filterThe air filter should be cleaned at the
specified intervals. It should be cleaned
more frequently if you are riding in un-
usually wet or dusty areas.
1. Remove the seats.
2. Remove cowling B from each side.
(See page 6-5.)
3. Remove the bolts holding the fuel
tank.
4. Lift the fuel tank upward and posi-
tion it away from the air filter case.
(Do not remove the fuel hoses.)

@ l
Support the fuel tank carefully
during this procedure.
l
Do not tilt the fuel tank too
much or pull it too hard because
the fuel hose connections may
become loose causing fuel
leakage.
