SAFETY INFORMATION
• Always obey the speed limit
and never travel faster than
warranted by road and traffic
conditions.
• Always signal before turning or
changing lanes. Make sure that
other motorists can see you.
The posture of the operator and
passenger is important for proper
control.
• The operator should keep both
hands on the handlebar and
both feet on the operator
footrests during operation to
maintain control of the motor-
cycle.
• The passenger should always
hold onto the operator, the seat
strap or grab bar, if equipped,
with both hands and keep
both feet on the passenger
footrests.
• Never carry a passenger un-
less he or she can firmly place
both feet on the passenger
footrests.
Never ride under the influence of
alcohol or other drugs.
This motorcycle is designed for
on-road use only. It is not suitable
for off-road use.
Protective apparel
The majority of fatalities from motorcy-
cle accidents are the result of head in-
juries. The use of a safety helmet is
the single most critical factor in the
prevention or reduction of head in-
juries.
Always wear an approved helmet.
Wear a face shield or goggles.
Wind in your unprotected eyes
could contribute to an impairment
of vision that could delay seeing a
hazard.
The use of a jacket, heavy boots,
trousers, gloves, etc., is effective
in preventing or reducing abra-
sions or lacerations.
Never wear loose-fitting clothes,
otherwise they could catch on the
control levers, footrests, or
wheels and cause injury or an ac-
cident.
Never touch the engine or ex-
haust system during or after oper-
ation. They become very hot and
can cause burns. Always wear
protective clothing that covers
your legs, ankles, and feet.
A passenger should also observe
the above precautions.
Modifications
Modifications made to this motorcycle
not approved by Yamaha, or the re-
moval of original equipment, may ren-
der the motorcycle unsafe for use and
may cause severe personal injury.
Modifications may also make your mo-
torcycle illegal to use.
Loading and accessories
Adding accessories or cargo to your
motorcycle can adversely affect stabili-
ty and handling if the weight distribution
of the motorcycle is changed. To avoid
the possibility of an accident, use ex-
treme caution when adding cargo or
accessories to your motorcycle. Use
extra care when riding a motorcycle
that has added cargo or accessories.

A. Distance (spring preload)
Adjust the spring preload as follows.
1. Loosen the locknut.
2. To increase the spring preload
and thereby harden the suspen-
sion, turn the adjusting nut in di-
rection (a). To decrease the
spring preload and thereby soften
the suspension, turn the adjusting
nut in direction (b).
NOTE:
Use the special wrench included
in the owner's tool kit to make the
adjustment.
The spring preload setting is de-
termined by measuring distance
A, shown in the illustration. The
longer distance A is, the lower the
spring preload; the shorter dis-
tance A is, the higher the spring
preload. With each complete turn
of the adjusting nut, distance A
changes by 1.5 mm (0.059 in).
When measuring distance A, the
rear wheel must be raised off the
ground. (See page 6-36).

PERIODIC MAINTENANCE AND MINOR REPAIR
Adjust the suspension and tire
air pressure with regard to the
load.
Check the tire condition and air
pressure before each ride.Tire inspection
1. Tire sidewall
2. Tire tread depth
The tires must be checked before
each ride. If the center tread depth
reaches the specified limit, if the tire
has a nail or glass fragments in it, or if
the sidewall is cracked, have a Yama-
ha dealer replace the tire immediately.
NOTE:
The tire tread depth limits may differ
from country to country. Always com-
ply with the local regulations.
EWA10470
WARNING0
Have a Yamaha dealer replace
excessively worn tires. Besides
being illegal, operating the ve-
hicle with excessively worn
tires decreases riding stability
and can lead to loss of control.
The replacement of all wheel
and brake related parts, includ-
ing the tires, should be left to a
Yamaha dealer, who has the
necessary professional knowl-
edge and experience.
