PERIODIC MAINTENANCE AND MINOR REPAIR
EAU00681
w8Have a Yamaha dealer replace
excessively worn tires.
Besides being illegal, operat-
ing the motorcycle with exces-
sively worn tires decreases
riding stability and can lead to
loss of control.
8The replacement of all wheel-
and brake-related parts,
including the tires, should be
left to a Yamaha dealer, who
has the necessary profession-
al knowledge and experience.
8It is not recommended to
patch a punctured tube. If
unavoidable, however, patch
the tube very carefully and
replace it as soon as possible
with a high-quality product.
8Ride at moderate speeds after
changing a tire since the tire sur-
face must first be Òbroken inÓ for
it to develop its optimal charac-
teristics.
EAU00685
Spoke wheelsTo maximize the performance, dura-
bility, and safe operation of your
motorcycle, note the following points
regarding the specified wheels.
8The wheel rims should be
checked for cracks, bends or
warpage, and the spokes for
looseness or damage before
each ride. If any damage is
found, have a Yamaha dealer
replace the wheel. Do not
attempt even the smallest repair
to the wheel. A deformed or
cracked wheel must be replaced.
8The wheel should be balanced
whenever either the tire or wheel
has been changed or replaced.
An unbalanced wheel can result
in poor performance, adverse
handling characteristics, and a
shortened tire life.

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