6To install a spark plug
1. Measure the spark plug gap with a
wire thickness gauge and, if nec-
essary, adjust the gap to specifica-
tion.
2. Clean the surface of the spark
plug gasket and its mating sur-
face, and then wipe off any grime
from the spark plug threads.3. Install the spark plug with the
spark plug wrench, and then tight-
en it to the specified torque.
NOTE:_ If a torque wrench is not available when
installing a spark plug, a good estimate
of the correct torque is 1/4–1/2 turn
past finger tight. However, the spark
plug should be tightened to the speci-
fied torque as soon as possible. _4. Install the spark plug cap.

Engine oil and oil filter
element The engine oil level should be checked
before each ride. In addition, the oil
must be changed and the oil filter ele-
ment replaced at the intervals specified
in the periodic maintenance and lubri-
cation chart.
To check the engine oil level
1. Place the motorcycle on the cen-
terstand.NOTE:_ Make sure that the motorcycle is posi-
tioned straight up when checking the oil
level. A slight tilt to the side can result in
a false reading. _2. Start the engine, warm it up for
several minutes, and then turn it
off.

CAUTION:_

In order to prevent clutch slip-
page (since the engine oil also
lubricates the clutch), do not
mix any chemical additives with
the oil or use oils of grade “CD”
or higher. In addition, do not
use oils labeled “ENERGY CON-
SERVING II” or higher.


Make sure that no foreign mate-
rial enters the crankcase.
_
11. Start the engine, and then let it idle
for several minutes while checking
it for oil leakage. If oil is leaking,
immediately turn the engine off
and check for the cause.NOTE:_ After the engine is started, the engine
oil level warning light should go off if the
oil level is sufficient. _
EC000067
CAUTION:_ If the oil level warning light flickers
or remains on, immediately turn the
engine off and have a Yamaha deal-
er check the vehicle. _12. Turn the engine off, and then
check the oil level and correct it if
necessary. Recommended engine oil:
See page 8-1.
