Speedometer unitSpeedometer unitThe speedometer unit is equipped
with the following:
8a digital speedometer (which
shows riding speed)
8an odometer (which shows the
total distance traveled)
8two tripmeters (which show the
distance traveled since they
were last set to zero)
1. Speedometer
2. Odometer/tripmeter
3. “SELECT” button
4. “RESET” button
5. Fuel gauge
If the fuel level warning symbol flash-
es (see page 3-2), the odometer dis-
play will automatically change to the
fuel reserve tripmeter mode “TRIP F”
and start counting the distance trav-
eled from that point. In that case,
pushing the “SELECT” button switch-
es the display between the various
tripmeter and odometer modes in the
following order:
TRIP F
→TRIP 1 →TRIP 2 →ODO
→TRIP F
To reset a tripmeter, select it by
pushing the “SELECT” button, and
then push the “RESET” button. If you
do not reset the fuel reserve tripmeter
manually, it will reset itself automati-
cally and the display will return to
“TRIP 1” after refueling and traveling
5 km. 8a fuel reserve tripmeter (which
shows the distance traveled on
the fuel reserve)
8a fuel gauge
8a self-diagnosis device
NOTE:
Be sure to turn the key to “ON”
before using the “SELECT” and
“RESET” buttons.
Odometer and tripmeter modes
Pushing the “SELECT” button switch-
es the display between the odometer
mode “ODO” and the tripmeter
modes “TRIP 1” and “TRIP 2” in the
following order:
ODO →TRIP 1 →TRIP 2 →ODO

NOTE:
After resetting the fuel reserve trip-
meter, the display will return to
“TRIP 1”, unless a different mode had
been previously selected; in that
case, the display automatically
returns to the prior mode.
Fuel gauge
The fuel gauge indicates the amount
of fuel in the fuel tank. The display
segments of the fuel gauge disap-
pear towards “E” (Empty) as the fuel
level decreases. When only one seg-
ment is left near “E”, refuel as soon
as possible.Self-diagnosis device
This model is equipped with a self-
diagnosis device for various electrical
circuits.
If any of those circuits are defective,
the odometer/tripmeter will indicate a
two-digit error code (e.g., 11, 12, 13).
If the odometer/tripmeter indicates
such an error code, note the code
number, and then have a Yamaha
dealer check the motorcycle.

cC
If the odometer/tripmeter indicates
an error code, the motorcycle
should be checked as soon as
possible in order to avoid engine
damage.
EAU04938
Tachometer unitTachometer unitThe electric tachometer allows the
rider to monitor the engine speed and
keep it within the ideal power range.
When the key is turned to “ON”, the
tachometer needle will move to
9,500 r/min and back to zero r/min in
order to test the electrical circuit.

6 To store the battery
1. If the motorcycle will not be used
for more than one month,
remove the battery, fully charge
it, and then place it in a cool, dry
place.
2. If the battery will be stored for
more than two months, check it
at least once a month and fully
charge it if necessary.
3. Fully charge the battery before
installation.
4. After installation, make sure that
the battery leads are properly
connected to the battery termi-
nals.

Replacing the fusesFuses, replacingThe main fuse and the fuse box,
which contains the fuses for the indi-
vidual circuits, are located under the
seat. (See page 3-13 for seat
removal and installation procedures.)
If a fuse is blown, replace it as fol-
lows.
1. Turn the key to “OFF” and turn

8Always keep the battery
charged. Storing a discharged
battery can cause permanent
battery damage.
8To charge a sealed-type (MF)
battery, a special (constant-
voltage) battery charger is
required. Using a conventional
battery charger will damage
the battery. If you do not have
access to a sealed-type (MF)
battery charger, have a
Yamaha dealer charge your
battery.

Do not use a fuse of a higher
amperage rating than recommend-
ed to avoid causing extensive
damage to the electrical system
and possibly a fire.
