Be sure to stop the vehicle before
making any setting changes to the
multi-function display. Changing
settings while riding can distract the
operator and increase the risk of an
accident.The multi-function display is equipped
with the following:
an odometer
two tripmeters (which show the
distance traveled since they were
last set to zero)
a fuel reserve tripmeter (which
shows the distance traveled on the
fuel reserve)
a fuel meter
a clock
a self-diagnosis device
a display, speedometer, and ta-
chometer brightness control mode
TIPBe sure to turn the key to “ON” before
using the select and reset buttons, ex-
cept for setting the display, speedome-
ter and tachometer brightness control
mode.
Odometer and tripmeter modes
Pushing the select button switches the
display between the odometer mode
“ODO” and the tripmeter modes “TRIP
1” and “TRIP 2” in the following order:
ODO → TRIP 1 → TRIP 2 → ODO
When approximately 4.5 L (1.19 US
gal, 0.99 Imp.gal) of fuel remains in the
fuel tank, the display will automatically
change to the fuel reserve tripmeter
mode “TRIP F” and start counting the
distance traveled from that point. In that
case, pushing the select button switch-
es the display between the various trip-
meter and odometer modes in the

you do not reset the fuel reserve trip-
meter manually, it will reset itself auto-
matically and the display will return to

Fuel meter
The fuel meter indicates the amount of
fuel in the fuel tank. The display seg-
ments of the fuel meter disappear to-
wards “E” (Empty) as the fuel level
decreases. When the fuel level warning
indicator“” starts flashing, refuel as
soon as possible.
TIPThis fuel meter is equipped with a self-
diagnosis system. If a problem is de-
tected in the electrical circuit, the follow-
ing cycle will be repeated until the
malfunction is corrected: All the display
segments and symbol“” will flash
eight times, then go off for approxi-
mately 3 seconds. If this occurs, have a
Yamaha dealer check the electrical cir-
cuit.Clock mode

TIPAlthough the total number of clicks of a
damping force adjusting mechanism
may not exactly match the above spec-
ifications due to small differences in
production, the actual number of clicks
always represents the entire adjusting
range. To obtain a precise adjustment,
it would be advisable to check the num-
ber of clicks of each damping force ad-
justing mechanism and to modify the
specifications as necessary.

Adjusting the shock absorber
assembly
WARNING
EWA10210
Always adjust both shock absorber
assemblies equally, otherwise poor
handling and loss of stability may
result.Each shock absorber assembly is
equipped with a spring preload adjust-
ing ring and rebound and compression
damping force adjusting knobs.
Spring preload
Adjust the spring preload as follows.
1. Loosen the lock screw 1/2 turn
counterclockwise.2. To increase the spring preload and
thereby harden the suspension,
turn the adjusting ring in direction
(a). To decrease the spring pre-
load and thereby soften the sus-
pension, turn the adjusting ring in
direction (b).
Use the special wrench in-
cluded in the owner’s tool kit
to make this adjustment.
The spring preload setting is
determined by measuring dis-
tance A, shown in the illustra-
tion. The longer distance A is,
the higher the spring preload;
the shorter distance A is, the
lower the spring preload. With
each complete turn of the ad-
justing ring, distance A chang-
es by 1.5 mm (0.06 in).
Be sure to turn the adjusting
ring so that the lock screw is
facing outward.
