Speedometer unit
1. Speedomenter unit
2. Odometer
The speedometer unit is equipped
with a speedometer, an odometer and
a tripmeter. The speedometer shows
riding speed. The odometer shows
the total distance traveled. The trip-
meter shows the distance traveled
since it was last set to zero.
Pushing the “TRIP” button switches
the display between the odometer
mode “ODO” and the tripmeter mode
“TRIP”. To reset the tripmeter, enter
the “TRIP” mode, and then hold down
the “TRIP” button for at least one
second. The tripmeter can be used
together with the fuel gauge to esti-mate the distance that can be trave-
led with a full tank of fuel. This infor-
mation will enable you to plan future
fuel stops.
Setting the odometer/tripmeter
reading mode
The odometer and tripmeter can be
set to count in either miles or kilome-
ters according to the following proce-
dure.
1. Turn the key to “ON” while pres-
sing the reset button.
2. Release the reset button when
the display comes on.
3. The current mode appears in the
display: “CONT” (continental) for
the kilometer mode and “EnGL”
(English) for the mile mode.
4. Press the reset button to switch
the mode.
5. Press the reset button for two
seconds to confirm the setting.
NOTE:
The odometer/tripmeter reading
mode can be changed any num-
ber of times while the odometer
reading is below 10, but it cannot
be changed anymore after the
reading has reached 10.
Switching between the mile and
the kilometer mode does not
change or convert the current
odometer/tripmeter reading.

Periodic maintenance and lubrication chart
NOTE:
The annual checks must be performed every year, except if a kilometer-based maintenance is performed
instead.
From 50000 km, repeat the maintenance intervals starting from 10000 km.
Items marked with an asterisk should be performed by a Yamaha dealer as they require special tools, data and
technical skills.
