VII
TWO-WHEELED MACHINES ARE SINGLE TRACK VEHICLES. THEIR SAFE USE AND OPERATION ARE DEPENDENT
UPON THE USE OF PROPER RIDING TECHNIQUES AS WELL AS THE EXPERTISE OF THE OPERATOR.
EVERY OPERATOR SHOULD KNOW THE FOLLOWING REQUIREMENTS BEFORE RIDING. HE OR SHE SHOULD.
1. OBTAIN THOROUGH INSTRUCTIONS FORM A COMPETENT SOURCE ON ALL ASPECTS OF MACHINE
OPERATION.
2. OBSERVE THE WARNINGS AND MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS IN THE OWNERíS MANUAL.
3. OBTAIN QUALIFIED TRAINING IN SAFE AND PROPER RIDING TECHNIQUES.
4. OBTAIN PROFESSIONAL TECHNICAL SERVICE AS INDICATED BY THE OWNERíS MANUAL AND/OR WHEN
MADE NECESSARY BY MECHANICAL CONDITIONS.
SAFE RIDING
1. Always make pre-operation checks. Careful checks may help prevent an accident.
2. Many accidents involve inexperienced operators.
a. Know your skills and limits. Staying within your limits may help you to avoid an accident.
b. Only lend your machine to experienced operators.
3. Many machine accidents have been caused by machine operator errors. A typical error made by the operator is veering
wide on a turn due to EXCESSIVE SPEED or undercornering (insufficient lean angle for the speed). Never travel faster
than warranted by conditions.
4. Ride cautiously in unfamiliar areas. You may encounter hidden obstacles which could cause an accident.
5. The operatorís posture is important for proper control. The operator should keep both hands on the handlebars and
both feet on the operator footrests during operation to maintain control of the machine.
6. Never ride under the influence of alcohol or drugs.

SAFETY INFORMATION

VIII
PROTECTIVE APPAREL
The majority of fatalities from machine accidents are the result of head injuries. The use of a safety helmet is the single
most critical factor in the prevention or reduction of head injuries.
1. Always wear an approved helmet.
2. Wear a face shield or goggles. Wind on your unprotected eyes could contribute to an impairment of vision which could
delay seeing a hazard.
3. The use of heavy boots, jacket, trousers, gloves, etc. is effective in preventing or reducing abrasions or lacerations.
4. Never wear loose fitting clothing. It could catch on the control levers, footrests, or wheels and cause injury or accident.
5. Never touch the engine or exhaust system during or after operation. They become very hot and can cause burns.
Always wear protective clothing that covers your legs, ankles and feet.
6. Always use clear clothes to make your visualization easier.
7. Items above must also be followed by pillion rider.
MODIFICATION
Modifications made to the machine not approved by Yamaha, or the removal of original equipment, may render your
machine unsafe for use and may cause severe personal injury. Modifications may also make your machine illegal to use.

1. It is dangerous to ride with a worn-out tire. When
the tire tread begin to show signs of wear, replace
the tire immediately. Brakes, tires and related wheel
parts should be left to a Yamaha dealer.
2. Patching a punctured tube is not recommended. If
it is absolutely necessary to do so, use great care
and replace the tube as soon as possible with a
good quality replacement.
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,
ì Engine Stopî switch.
WARNING:Wheels
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.
