NOTE:
The air filter needs more frequent service if you are riding in unusually wet or dusty areas.
Hydraulic brake service
Regularly check and, if necessary, correct the brake fluid level.
Every two years replace the internal components of the brake master cylinder and caliper, and change the brake fluid.Replace the brake hoses every four years and if cracked or damaged.

NOTE:The coolant should be between theminimum and maximum level marks.3. If the coolant is at or below the minimum level mark, remove cowl-
ing A. (See page 6-5.)
4. Loosen the coolant reservoir cap retainer bolt, and then lift the re-
tainer upward.
5. Remove the coolant reservoir cap, and then add coolant to the maxi-
mum level mark.
CAUTION:
ECA10470
use only YAMAHA GENUINE
COLANT. Using coolan other than
recommended, could cause damage
to oil seal and o-rings, as whell
as to the cooling system. If water has been used instead
of coolant, replace it with cool-
ant as soon as possible, other-
wise the engine may not be sufficiently cooled and the cool-
ing system will not be protected
against frost and corrosion.
If water has been added to the
coolant, have a Yamaha dealer
check the antifreeze content of
the coolant as soon as possible,
otherwise the effectiveness ofthe coolant will be reduced.WARNING
EWA10380
Never attempt to remove the radiatorcap when the engine is hot.
6. Install the coolant reservoir cap.
7. Place the coolant reservoir cap re- tainer in the original position, and
then tighten the bolt to the speci-
fied torque.
8. Install the cowling.

6Engine overheating
WARNING
EWA10400
Do not remove the radiator cap when the engine and radiator are hot. Scalding hot fluid and steam may be
blown out under pressure, which could cause serious injury. Be sure to wait until the engine has cooled.
After removing the radiator cap retaining bolt, place a thick rag, like a towel, over the radiator cap, and then
slowly rotate the cap counterclockwise to the detent to allow any residual pressure to escape. When the hissingsound has stopped, press down on the cap while turning it counterclockwise, and then remove the cap.
NOTE:If coolant is not available, tap water can be temporarily used instead, provided that it is changed to the recommended coolantas soon as possible.
Wait until the
engine has cooled.
Check the coolant level in the
reservoir and radiator.
The coolant level
is OK.The coolant level is low.
Check the cooling system
for leakage.
Have a Yamaha dealer checkand repair the cooling system.Add coolant. (See NOTE.)
Start the engine. If the engine overheats again,
have a
Yamaha dealer check
and repair the cooling system.
There is
leakage.
There is
no leakage.
