Keep other immobilizer system
keys away from the main
switch as they may cause sig-
nal interference.EAU10472
Main switch/steering lock
The main switch/steering lock con-
trols the ignition and lighting systems,
and is used to lock the steering. The
various positions are described
below.
TIP
Be sure to use the standard key
(black bow) for regular use of the
vehicle. To minimize the risk of losing
the code re-registering key (red bow),
keep it in a safe place and only use it
for code re-registering.
EAU34121
ON
All electrical circuits are supplied with
power; the meter lighting, taillight,
license plate light and auxiliary lights
come on, and the engine can be star-
ted. The key cannot be removed.
TIP
The headlights come on automatically
when the engine is started and stay
on until the key is turned to “OFF” or
the sidestand is moved down.
EAU10661
OFF
All electrical systems are off. The key
can be removed.
EWA10061
Never turn the key to “OFF” or
“LOCK” while the vehicle is
moving. Otherwise the electrical
systems will be switched off, which
may result in loss of control or an
accident.

1. Fuel tank cap
To close the fuel tank cap
1. Be sure the match mark is facing
forward, and then push the fuel
tank cap into the original posi-
tion.
1. Match marks
2. Turn the key counterclockwise
and remove it.
3. Close the fuel tank cover.
EWA11091
Make sure that the fuel tank cap is
properly closed after filling fuel.
Leaking fuel is a fire hazard.
EAU13212
Fuel
Make sure there is sufficient gasoline
in the tank.
EWA10881
Gasoline and gasoline vapors are
extremely flammable. To avoid fires
and explosions and to reduce the
risk of injury when refueling, follow
these instructions.
1. Before refueling, turn off the engi-
ne and be sure that no one is sit-
ting on the vehicle. Never refuel
while smoking, or while in the
vicinity of sparks, open flames, or
other sources of ignition such as
the pilot lights of water heaters
and clothes dryers.
2. Do not overfill the fuel tank. Stop
filling when the fuel reaches the
bottom of the filler tube. Because
fuel expands when it heats up,
heat from the engine or the sun
can cause fuel to spill out of the
fuel tank.

EAU14882
Adjusting the shock
absorber assemblies
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 adjus-
ting ring.
ECA10101
To avoid damaging the mechanism,
do not attempt to turn beyond the
maximum or minimum settings.
Adjust the spring preload as follows.
To increase the spring preload and
thereby harden the suspension, turn
the adjusting ring on each shock
absorber assembly in direction (a). To
decrease the spring preload and the-
reby soften the suspension, turn the
adjusting ring on each shock absor-
ber assembly in direction (b).Align the appropriate notch in the
adjusting ring with the position indica-
tor on the shock absorber.

Sidestand
1. Sidestand switch
The sidestand is located on the left
side of the frame. Raise the sidestand
or lower it with your foot while holding
the vehicle upright.
TIP
The built-in sidestand switch is part of
the ignition circuit cut-off system,
which cuts the ignition in certain
situations. (See page 3-19 for an
explanation of the ignition circuit cut-
off system.)

EWA10240
The vehicle must not be ridden with
the sidestand down, or if the sides-
tand cannot be properly moved up
(or does not stay up), otherwise the
sidestand could contact the ground
and distract the operator, resulting
in a possible loss of control. Yama-
ha’s ignition circuit cut-off system
has been designed to assist the
operator in fulfilling the responsibi-
lity of raising the sidestand before
starting off. Therefore, check this
system regularly as described
below and have a Yamaha dealer
repair it if it does not function pro-
perly.
EAU45051
Ignition circuit cut-off
system
The ignition circuit cut-off system
(comprising the sidestand switch and
brake light switches) has the following
functions.
It prevents starting when the
sidestand is up, but neither brake
is applied.
It prevents starting when either
brake is applied, but the sides-
tand is still down.
It cuts the running engine when
the sidestand is moved down.
Periodically check the operation of
the ignition circuit cut-off system
according to the following procedure.

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.
EWA10271
Failure to familiarize yourself with
the controls can lead to loss of
control, which could cause an acci-
dent or injury.

TIP
This model is equipped with a lean
angle sensor to stop the engine in
case of a turnover. To start the engine
after a turnover, be sure to turn the
main switch to “OFF” and then to
“ON”. Failing to do so will prevent the
engine from starting even though the
engine will crank when pushing the
start switch.
