4-8Wheels
To ensure maximum performance, long service, and safe
operation, note the following:
1. Always inspect the wheels before a ride. Check for
cracks, bends, or warpage of the wheel; be sure the
spokes are tight and undamaged. If any abnormal
condition exists in a wheel, consult a Yamaha dealer or
other qualified mechanic. Do not attempt even small
repairs to the wheel. If a wheel is deformed or cracked,
it must be replaced.
2. Tires and wheels should be balanced whenever either one is changed or replaced. Failure to have a wheel
balanced can result in poor performance, adverse
handling characteristics, and shortened tire life.
3. After installing a tire, ride conservatively to allow the tire to seat itself on the rim properly. Failure to allow
proper seating may cause tire failure, resulting in
damage to the motorcycle and injury to the rider.
Clutch
( See page 6-20 for details)
Check the free play in the clutch lever, and make sure the
lever operates properly. If the free play is incorrect, adjust
it.
Throttle grip (See page 6-24 for details)
Turn the throttle grip to see if it operates properly, and check
the free play.
Make sure the grip returns by spring force when released.
Ask a Yamaha dealer or other qualified mechanic to make
any necessary adjustments.
Fitting/Fasteners
Alway check the tightness of chassis fittings and fasteners
before a ride. Use the chart on page 6-5 to find the correct
torque.
Switches
Check the operation of the starter switch, main switch, “
Engine Stop” switch.
