Engine break-in
There is never a more important
period in the life of your engine than
the period between 0 and 1000 km
(600 mi). For this reason, you should
read the following material carefully.
Since the engine is brand new, do not
put an excessive load on it for the first
1000 km (600 mi). The various parts in
the engine wear and polish themsel-
ves to the correct operating clearan-
ces. During this period, prolonged
full-throttle operation or any condition
that might result in engine overhea-
ting must be avoided.
EAU16860
0~150 km (0~90 mi)
Avoid prolonged operation above 1/3
throttle.
After every hour of operation, stop the
engine, and then let it cool for five to
ten minutes.
Vary the engine speed from time to
time. Do not operate the engine at
one set throttle position.150~500 km (90~300 mi)
Avoid prolonged operation above 1/2
throttle.
500~1000 km (300~600 mi)
Avoid prolonged operation above 3/4
throttle.
ECA10280
CAUTION
After 1000 km (600 mi) of operation,
the engine oil must be changed.
1000 km (600 mi) and beyond
Avoid prolonged full-throttle opera-
tion. Vary the speed occasionally.
ECA10270
CAUTION
If any engine trouble should occur
during the engine break-in period,
immediately have a Yamaha dealer
check the vehicle.
EAU17170
Parking
When parking, stop the engine, remo-
ve the key from the main switch, and
then turn the fuel cock lever to “OFF”.

WARNING
Since the engine and exhaust
system can become very hot,
park in a place where pedes-
trians or children are not likely
to touch them.
Do not park on a slope or on
soft ground, otherwise the
vehicle may overturn.

The transmission oil level should be
checked before each ride. In addition,
the oil must be changed at the inter-
vals specified in the periodic mainte-
nance and lubrication chart.
To check the transmission oil level
1. Place the vehicle on a level surfa-
ce and hold it in an upright posi-
tion.
NOTE:
Make sure that the vehicle is positio-
ned straight up when checking the oil
level. A slight tilt to the side can result
in a false reading.
2. Remove the oil check bolt, and
then check the oil level.
NOTE:
The oil should be at the brim of the
check hole.
3. If the oil is below the brim of the
check hole, remove the oil filler
cap, add sufficient oil of the
recommended type to raise it to
the correct level, and then install
the oil filler cap.
4. Install the oil check bolt, and then
tighten it to the specified torque.
To change the transmission oil
1. Place an oil pan under the trans-
mission oil case to collect the used
oil.
2. Remove the drain bolt and the oil
check bolt to drain the oil.
3. Install the drain bolt and the
check bolt, and then tighten them to
the specified torque.4. Remove the oil filler cap, add the
specified amount of the recom-
mended transmission oil, and
then install and tighten the oil
filler cap.
ECAM1020
CAUTION
Make sure that no foreign material
enters the transmission case.
5. Start the engine and let it idle for
several minutes while checking
the transmission oil case for oil
leakage. If oil is leaking, imme-
diately turn the engine off and
check for the cause.
Recommended transmission oil:
See page 8-1.

Before riding, check that the brake
fluid is above the minimum level mark
and replenish if necessary. A low bra-
ke fluid level may indicate worn brake
pads and/or brake system leakage. If
the brake level is low, be sure to
check the brake pads for wear and
the brake system for leakage.
Observe these precautions:
When checking the fluid level,
make sure that the top of the
brake fluid reservoir is level by
turning the handlebars.
Use only the recommended qua-
lity brake fluid, otherwise the rub-
ber seals may deteriorate, cau-
sing leakage and poor braking
performance.
NOTE:
If DOT 4 is not available, DOT 3 can
be used for the front brake system.
Refill with the same type of brake
fluid. Mixing fluids may result in a
harmful chemical reaction and
lead to poor braking performan-
ce.
Be careful that water does not
enter the brake fluid reservoir
when refilling. Water will signifi-
cantly lower the boiling point of
the fluid and may result in vapor
lock.
Brake fluid may deteriorate pain-
ted surfaces or plastic parts.
Always clean up spilled fluid
immediately.
As the brake pads wear, it is nor-
mal for the brake fluid level to
gradually go down. However, if
the brake fluid level goes down
suddenly, have a Yamaha dealer
check the cause.
EAU22720
Changing the brake fluid
Have a Yamaha dealer change the
brake fluid at the intervals specified in
the NOTE after the periodic mainte-
nance and lubrication chart. In addi-
tion, have the oil seals of the brake
master cylinder and caliper as well as
the brake hose replaced at the inter-
vals listed below or whenever they are
damaged or leaking.
Oil seals: Replace every two
years.
Brake hose: Replace every four
years.Recommended brake fluid:
