Fuel(except for Switzerland and
Austria)
Make sure that there is sufficient fuel
in the tank. Fill the fuel tank to the
bottom of the filler tube as shown.
EW000130
w8Do not overfill the fuel tank,
otherwise it may overflow
when the fuel warms up and
expands.
8Avoid spilling fuel on the hot
engine.
EAU03754
Fuel(for Switzerland and Austria)
Make sure that there is sufficient fuel
in the tank. When refueling, be sure
to insert the pump nozzle into the fuel

cCImmediately wipe off spilled fuel
with a clean, dry, soft cloth, since
fuel may deteriorate painted sur-
faces or plastic parts.
EAU04206
Your Yamaha engine has been
designed to use regular unleaded
gasoline with a research octane num-
ber of 91 or higher. If knocking (or
pinging) occurs, use a gasoline of a
different brand or premium unleaded
fuel. Use of unleaded fuel will extend
spark plug life and reduce mainte-
nance costs.
EAU01084
Catalytic converter(for Switzerland and Austria)
This motorcycle is equipped with a
catalytic converter in the exhaust
chamber.
EW000128
wThe exhaust system is hot after
operation. Make sure that the
exhaust system has cooled down
before doing any maintenance
work.

PERIODIC MAINTENANCE AND MINOR REPAIR
612. Remove the radiator cap to
check the coolant level in the
radiator. If necessary, add suffi-
cient coolant until it reaches the
top of the radiator, and then
install the radiator cap.
13. Check the coolant level in the
reservoir. If necessary, remove
the coolant reservoir cap by
removing the screw and retainer,
add coolant to the maximum
level mark, and then install the
coolant reservoir cap and retain-
er by installing the screw.14. Start the engine, and then check
the vehicle for coolant leakage. If
coolant is leaking, have a
Yamaha dealer check the cool-
ing system.
15. Install the cowling and the seat.
EAU03747
Cleaning the air filter
elementThe air filter element should be
cleaned at the intervals specified in
the periodic maintenance and lubrica-
tion chart. Clean the air filter element
more frequently if you are riding in
unusually wet or dusty areas.
1. Remove the seat. (See page
3-12 for seat removal and instal-
lation procedures.)
2. Remove cowlings A and B. (See
page 6-6 for cowling removal
and installation procedures.)
3. Remove the fuel tank bolt.

MOTORCYCLE CARE AND STORAGE
7
StorageShort-term
Always store your motorcycle in a
cool, dry place and, if necessary, pro-
tect it against dust with a porous
cover.
ECA00014
cC8Storing the motorcycle in a
poorly ventilated room or cov-
ering it with a tarp, while it is
still wet, will allow water and
humidity to seep in and cause
rust.
8To prevent corrosion, avoid
damp cellars, stables (because
of the presence of ammonia)
and areas where strong chemi-
cals are stored.
Long-term
Before storing your motorcycle for
several months:
1. Follow all the instructions in the
“Care” section of this chapter.
2. For motorcycles equipped with a
fuel cock that has an “OFF” posi-
tion: Turn the fuel cock lever to
“OFF”.
3. Drain the carburetor float cham-
ber by loosening the drain bolt;
this will prevent fuel deposits
from building up. Pour the
drained fuel into the fuel tank.
4. Fill up the fuel tank and add fuel
stabilizer (if available) to prevent
the fuel tank from rusting and the
fuel from deteriorating.
5. Perform the following steps to
protect the cylinder, piston rings,
etc. from corrosion.a. Remove the spark plug cap
and spark plug.
b. Pour a teaspoonful of engine
oil into the spark plug bore.
c. Install the spark plug cap onto
the spark plug, and then place
the spark plug on the cylinder
head so that the electrodes
are grounded. (This will limit
sparking during the next step.)
d. Turn the engine over several
times with the starter. (This
will coat the cylinder wall with
oil.)
e. Remove the spark plug cap
from the spark plug, and then
install the spark plug and the
spark plug cap.
EWA00003
wTo prevent damage or injury from
sparking, make sure to ground the
spark plug electrodes while turn-
ing the engine over.
