Tachometer1. Speedometer
2. TachometerThe electric tachometer allows the rider
to monitor the engine speed and keep it
within the ideal power range.
When the key is turned to “ON”, the
tachometer needle will sweep once
across the r/min range and then return
to zero r/min in order to test the electrical
circuit.

3. “RESET” buttonThe multi-function display is equipped
with the following:l
an odometer (which shows the total
distance traveled)
l
two tripmeters (which show the
distance traveled since they were
last set to zero)
l
a fuel reserve tripmeter (which
shows the distance traveled on the
fuel reserve)
l
a fuel meter
l
a clock
Be sure to turn the key to “ON” before
using the “SELECT” and “RESET”
buttons.Odometer, tripmeter and clock
modes
Pushing the “SELECT” button switches
the display between the odometer
mode “ODO” and the tripmeter modes
“TRIP 1”, “TRIP 2” and the clock mode
in the following order:
ODO
→ TRIP 1 → TRIP 2 → CLOCK →
ODO
If the fuel level warning light comes on
(see page 3-2), the odometer display will
automatically change to the fuel reserve
tripmeter mode “F-TRIP” and start
counting the distance traveled from that
point. In that case, pushing the
“SELECT” button switches the display
between the various tripmeter, odometer
and clock modes in the following order:
F-TRIP → TRIP 1 → TRIP 2 → CLOCK
→ ODO → F-TRIP
To reset a tripmeter, select it by pushing

tripmeter manually, it will reset itself
automatically and the display will return
to the prior mode after refueling and
traveling 5 km (3mi).
Clock mode
To set the clock:1. Push the “SELECT” button and “RESET” button together for at
least two seconds.
2. When the hour digits start flashing, push the “RESET” button to set the
hours.
3. Push the “SELECT” button, and the minute digits will start flashing.
4. Push the “RESET” button to set the minutes.
5. Push the “SELECT” button and then release it to start the clock.
Fuel meter
With the key in the “ON” position, the
fuel meter indicates the amount of fuel
in the fuel tank. The display segments
of the fuel meter disappear towards “E”
(Empty) as the fuel level decreases. When the fuel level reaches the bottom
segment near “E”, the fuel level warning
indicator and the bottom segment will
flash. Refuel as soon as possible.

Recommended fuel:REGULAR UNLEADED GASOLINE ONLY
Fuel tank capacity: 19.2 L (5.07 US gal) (4.22 Imp. gal)
Fuel reserve amount (when the fuel level warning light comes on):

Use only unleaded gasoline. The use
of leaded gasoline will cause severe
damage to internal engine parts, such
as the valves and piston rings, as well
as to the exhaust system.Your Yamaha engine has been designed
to use regular unleaded gasoline with a
research octane number of 91 or higher.
If knocking (or pinging) occurs, use a gasoline of a different brand. Use of
unleaded fuel will extend spark plug life
and reduce maintenance costs.
