PRE-OPERATION CHECKS
4-1
EAU15591
The condition of a vehicle is the
owner’s responsibility. Vital compo-
nents can start to deteriorate quickly
and unexpectedly, even if the vehicle
remains unused (for example, as a
result of exposure to the elements).
Any damage, fluid leakage or loss of
tire air pressure could have serious
consequences. Therefore, it is very
important, in addition to a thorough
visual inspection, to check the follo-
wing points before each ride.
NOTE:
Pre-operation checks should be
made each time the vehicle is used.
Such an inspection can be accom-
plished in a very short time; and the
added safety it assures is more than
worth the time involved.

WARNING
If any item in the Pre-operation
check list is not working properly,
have it inspected and repaired
before operating the vehicle.

Valve clearance
The valve clearance changes with
use, resulting in improper air-fuel mix-
ture and/or engine noise. To prevent
this from occurring, the valve clearan-
ce must be adjusted by a Yamaha
dealer at the intervals specified in the
periodic maintenance and lubrication
chart.
EAU21870
Tires
To maximize the performance, durabi-
lity, and safe operation of your
motorcycle, note the following points
regarding the specified tires.
Tire air pressureThe tire air pressure should be chec-
ked and, if necessary, adjusted befo-
re each ride.
EWA10500
s s
WARNING
The tire air pressure must be
checked and adjusted on cold
tires (i.e., when the temperatu-
re of the tires equals the
ambient temperature).
The tire air pressure must be
adjusted in accordance with
the riding speed and with the
total weight of rider, passenger,
cargo, and accessories appro-
ved for this model.
EWA10450
s s
WARNING
Because loading has an enormous
impact on the handling, braking,
performance and safety characte-
ristics of your vehicle, you should
keep the following precautions in
mind.
Tire air pressure (measured on
cold tires):
Up to 90 kg (198 lb):
Front:
190 kPa (27 psi) (1.9 kgf/cm
2)
Rear:
220 kPa (31 psi) (2.2 kgf/cm
2)
90 kg (198 lb) to maximum load:
Front:
210 kPa (30 psi) (2.1 kgf/cm
2)
Rear:
250 kPa (36 psi) (2.5 kgf/cm
2)
Maximum load*:
189 kg (417 lb)
* Total weight of rider, passenger,
cargo and accessories

NEVER OVERLOAD THE VEHI-
CLE! Operation of an overloa-
ded vehicle may result in tire
damage, loss of control, or
severe injury. Make sure that
the total weight of rider, cargo,
and accessories does not
exceed the specified maximum
load for the vehicle.
Do not carry along loosely pac-
ked items, which can shift
during a ride.
Securely pack the heaviest
items close to the center of the
vehicle and distribute the
weight evenly on both sides.
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 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
comply with the local regulations.
Tire information
This motorcycle is equipped with
tubeless tires.
EWA10470

WARNING
Have a Yamaha dealer replace
excessively worn tires. Besides
being illegal, operating the
vehicle with excessively worn
tires decreases riding stability
and can lead to loss of control.
The replacement of all wheel
and brake related parts, inclu-
ding the tires, should be left to
a Yamaha dealer, who has the
necessary professional know-
ledge and experience.

WARNING
To prevent damage or injury from
sparking, make sure to ground the
spark plug electrodes while turning
the engine over.
5. Lubricate all control cables and
the pivoting points of all levers
and pedals as well as of the
sidestand/centerstand.
6. Check and, if necessary, correct
the tire air pressure, and then lift
the scooter so that both of its
wheels are off the ground. Alter-
natively, turn the wheels a little
every month in order to prevent
the tires from becoming degra-
ded in one spot.
7. Cover the muffler outlet with a
plastic bag to prevent moisture
from entering it.
8. Remove the battery and fully
charge it. Store it in a cool, dry
place and charge it once a
month. Do not store the battery in
an excessively cold or warm pla-
ce [less than 0 °C (30 °F) or more
than 30 °C (90 °F)]. For moreinformation on storing the bat-
tery, see page 6-22.
NOTE:
Make any necessary repairs before
storing the scooter.
