Further safe-riding points
Be sure to signal clearly when
making turns.
Braking can be extremely difficult
on a wet road. Avoid hard bra-
king, because the scooter could
slide. Apply the brakes slowly
when stopping on a wet surface.
Slow down as you approach a
corner or turn. Once you have
completed a turn, accelerate
slowly.
Be careful when passing parked
cars. A driver might not see you
and open a door in your path.
Railroad crossings, streetcar
rails, iron plates on road cons-
truction sites, and manhole
covers become extremely slip-
pery when wet. Slow down and
cross them with caution. Keep
the scooter upright, otherwise it
could slide out from under you.
The brake pads could get wet
when you wash the scooter. After
washing the scooter, check the
brakes before riding.
Always wear a helmet, gloves,
trousers (tapered around the cuff
and ankle so they do not flap),
and a bright colored jacket.
Do not carry too much luggage
on the scooter. An overloaded
scooter is unstable. Use a strong
cord to secure any luggage to the
carrier (if equipped). A loose load
will affect the stability of the sco-
oter and could divert your atten-
tion from the road. (See page
1-1).

Checking the front and rear
brake lever free play
1. Brake lever free play
1. Brake lever free play
The brake lever free play should mea-
sure 3.0-3.5 mm (0.12-0.20 in) as
shown. Periodically check the brakelever free play and, if necessary, have
a Yamaha dealer check the brake sys-
tem.
EWA10641
An incorrect brake lever free play indi-
cates a hazardous condition in the
brake system. Do not operate the
vehicle until the brake system has
been checked or repaired by a Yama-
ha dealer.
EAU22392
Checking the front and rear
brake pads
The front and rear brake pads must
be checked for wear at the intervals
specified in the periodic maintenance
and lubrication chart.
EAU22430
Front brake pads
1. Wear indicator groove
Each front brake pad is provided with
wear indicator grooves, which allow
you to check the brake pad wear wit-
hout having to disassemble the brake.
To check the brake pad wear, check
the wear indicator grooves. If a brake
pad has worn to the point that the
wear indicator grooves have almost

disappeared, have a Yamaha dealer
replace the brake pads as a set.
EAU22510
Rear brake pads
1. Lining thickness
The rear brake is provided with a
check plug, which, if it is removed,
allows you to check the brake pad
wear without disassembling the bra-
ke. If the lining thickness is less than
0.8 mm (0.03 in), have a Yamaha dea-
ler replace the brake pads as a set.
EAU22580
Checking the brake fluid
level
Front brake
1. Minimum level mark
Rear brake
1. Minimum level mark
Insufficient brake fluid may allow air
to enter the brake system, possibly
causing it to become ineffective.
Before riding, check that the brake
fluid is above the minimum level mark
and replenish if necessary. A low bra-
ke fluid level may indicate worn brake
pads and/or brake system leakage. If
the brake fluid level is low, be sure to
check the brake pads for wear and
the brake system for leakage.
Observe these precautions:
When checking the fluid level,
make sure that the top of the bra-
ke fluid reservoir is level.
Use only the recommended qua-
lity brake fluid, otherwise the rub-
ber seals may deteriorate, cau-
sing leakage and poor braking
performance.
Refill with the same type of brake
fluid. Mixing fluids may result in a
harmful chemical reaction and
lead to poor braking performan-
ce.
Recommended brake fluid:
