Engine trouble warning light“”
This warning light comes on or flashes
if a problem is detected in the electrical
circuit monitoring the engine. If this oc-
curs, have a Yamaha dealer check the
self-diagnosis system. (See page 3-3
for an explanation of the self-diagnosis
device.)
The electrical circuit of the warning light
can be checked by turning the key to
“ON”. The warning light should come
on for a few seconds, and then go off.
If the warning light does not come on
initially when the key is turned to “ON”,
or if the warning light remains on, have
a Yamaha dealer check the electrical
circuit.

Speedometer unit 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 tripmeter
shows the distance traveled since it
was last set to zero with the reset knob.
The tripmeter can be used to estimate
the distance that can be traveled with a
full tank of fuel. This information will en-
able you to plan future fuel stops.
EAU11851
Tachometer The electric tachometer allows the rider
to monitor the engine speed and keep it
within the ideal power range.NOTICE
ECA10031
Do not operate the engine in the ta-
chometer red zone.Red zone: 10000 r/min and above
EAU12092
Self-diagnosis device This model is equipped with a self-diag-
nosis device for various electrical cir-
cuits.
If a problem is detected in any of those
circuits, the engine trouble warning light
will come on or flash. If this occurs,
have a Yamaha dealer check the vehi-
cle.NOTICE
ECA11170
To prevent engine damage, be sure
to consult a Yamaha dealer as soonas possible if this occurs.

EAU15951
Read the Owner’s Manual carefully to
become familiar with all controls. If
there is a control or function you do not
understand, ask your Yamaha dealer.
WARNING
EWA10271
Failure to familiarize yourself with
the controls can lead to loss of con-
trol, which could cause an accidentor injury.
EAU43184
Starting the engine In order for the ignition circuit cut-off
system to enable starting, one of the
following conditions must be met:
The transmission is in the neutral
position.
The transmission is in gear with
the clutch lever pulled and the sid-
estand up.
See page 3-11 for more informa-
tion.
1. Turn the key to “ON”.
2. Shift the transmission into the neu-
tral position. (See page 5-2.) The
neutral indicator light should come
on. If not, ask a Yamaha dealer to
check the electrical circuit.
3. Start the engine by pushing the
start switch or by pushing the kick-
starter lever down. NOTICE: For
maximum engine life, never ac-
celerate hard when the engine is
cold!
[ECA11041]
If the engine fails to start when us-
ing the start switch, release it, wait
a few seconds, and then try again.
Each starting attempt should be as
short as possible to preserve thebattery. Do not crank the engine
more than 10 seconds on any one
attempt. If the engine does not
start with the starter motor, try us-
ing the kickstarter.

6 To check the spark plug
1. Check that the porcelain insulator
around the center electrode of the
spark plug is a medium-to-light tan
(the ideal color when the vehicle is
ridden normally).
TIPIf the spark plug shows a distinctly dif-
ferent color, the engine could be oper-
ating improperly. Do not attempt to
diagnose such problems yourself. In-
stead, have a Yamaha dealer checkthe vehicle.2. Check the spark plug for electrode
erosion and excessive carbon or
other deposits, and replace it if
necessary.
To install the spark plug
1. Measure the spark plug gap with a
wire thickness gauge and, if nec-
essary, adjust the gap to specifica-
tion.2. Clean the surface of the spark plug
gasket and its mating surface, and
then wipe off any grime from the
spark plug threads.
3. Install the spark plug with the
spark plug wrench, and then tight-
en it to the specified torque.
TIPIf a torque wrench is not available when
installing a spark plug, a good estimate
of the correct torque is 1/4–1/2 turn
past finger tight. However, the spark
plug should be tightened to the speci-fied torque as soon as possible.
4. Install the spark plug cap.

Spark plug gap:
0.6–0.7 mm (0.024–0.028 in)

Engine oil The engine oil level should be checked
before each ride. In addition, the oil
must be changed at the intervals spec-
ified in the periodic maintenance and
lubrication chart.
To check the engine oil level
1. Place the vehicle on the center-
stand. A slight tilt to the side can
result in a false reading.
2. Start the engine, warm it up for
several minutes, and then turn it
off.
3. Wait a few minutes until the oil set-
tles, remove the oil filler cap, wipe
the dipstick clean, insert it back
into the oil filler hole (without
screwing it in), and then remove it
again to check the oil level.
TIPThe engine oil should be between theminimum and maximum level marks.4. If the engine oil is at or below the
minimum level mark, add sufficient
oil of the recommended type to
raise it to the correct level.
5. Insert the dipstick into the oil filler
hole, and then tighten the oil filler
cap.
To change the engine oil
1. Start the engine, warm it up for
several minutes, and then turn it
off.
2. Place an oil pan under the engine
to collect the used oil.
3. Remove the engine oil filler cap
and drain bolt to drain the oil from
the crankcase.1. Engine oil filler cap

64. Remove the sponge material from
the air filter element.
5. Lightly tap the air filter element to
remove most of the dust and dirt,
and then blow the remaining dirt
out with compressed air on the
mesh side as shown. If the air filter
element is damaged, replace it.6. Clean the sponge material with
solvent, then squeeze the remain-
ing solvent out, and be sure to let
the sponge material dry before in-
stalling it into the air filter element.
If the sponge material is damaged,
replace it. WARNING! Use only a
dedicated parts cleaning sol-
vent. To avoid the risk of fire or
explosion, do not use gasoline
or solvents with a low flash
point.
[EWA10431]
NOTICE: To avoid
damaging the sponge material,
handle it gently and carefully,
and do not twist it.
[ECA15101]
7. Install the sponge material into the
air filter element, and then install
the air filter element into the air fil-
ter case. NOTICE: Make sure that
the air filter element is properly
seated in the air filter case. The
engine should never be operat-
ed without the air filter element
installed, otherwise the pis-
ton(s) and/or cylinder(s) may
become excessively worn.
[ECA10481]
8. Install the air filter case cover by in-
stalling the screws.
9. Check the hose at the bottom of
the air filter case for accumulated
dust or water, and if necessary,
drain it by removing the clamp, and
then removing the plug.

Cleaning and lubricating the
drive chain The drive chain must be cleaned and
lubricated at the intervals specified in
the periodic maintenance and lubrica-
tion chart, otherwise it will quickly wear
out, especially when riding in dusty or
wet areas. Service the drive chain as
follows.NOTICE
ECA10581
The drive chain must be lubricated
after washing the motorcycle andriding in the rain.
1. Clean the drive chain with kero-
sene and a small soft brush.
NOTICE: To prevent damaging
the O-rings, do not clean the
drive chain with steam cleaners,
high-pressure washers or inap-
propriate solvents.
