SAFETY INFORMATION

1
Check that the fuel cock (if
equipped) is in the “OFF” position
and that there are no fuel leaks.
Point the front wheel straight
ahead on the trailer or in the truck
bed, and choke it in a rail to pre-
vent movement.
Shift the transmission in gear (for
models with a manual transmis-
sion).
Secure the motorcycle with tie-
downs or suitable straps that are
attached to solid parts of the mo-
torcycle, such as the frame or up-
per front fork triple clamp (and not,
for example, to rubber-mounted
handlebars or turn signals, or parts
that could break). Choose the lo-
cation for the straps carefully so
the straps will not rub against
painted surfaces during transport.
The suspension should be com-
pressed somewhat by the tie-
downs, if possible, so that the mo-
torcycle will not bounce excessive-
ly during transport.

Multi-function display
WARNING
EWA14431
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 clock
a fuel meter
a coolant temperature meter
a transmission gear display
an ambient temperature display
a fuel consumption display (instan-
taneous and average consumption
functions)
a self-diagnosis device
TIPBe sure to turn the key to “ON” before
using the select and reset buttons.
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 → ODOTIPWhen selecting “Trip 1” or “Trip 2”, the
display flashes for five seconds.When approximately 5.5 L (1.45 US
gal, 1.21 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

meter and odometer modes in the
following order:
Trip F → ODO → Trip 1 → Trip 2 → Trip

TIPWhen selecting “Trip 1”, “Trip 2” or “Trip
F”, the display flashes for five seconds.To reset a tripmeter, select it by push-
ing the select button, and then push the
select button for at least one second
while the display is flashing. If you do
not reset the fuel reserve tripmeter
manually, it will reset itself automatical-
ly and the display will return to the prior
mode after refueling and traveling 5 km
(3 mi).Clock
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 re-
lease it to start the clock.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 last segment
starts flashing, refuel as soon as possi-
ble.
When the key is turned to “ON”, all dis-
play segments come on once in order
to test the electrical circuit.
TIPThis fuel meter is equipped with a self-
diagnosis system. If a problem is de-
tected in the electrical circuit, all display

3 segments will start flashing. If this oc-
curs, have a Yamaha dealer check the
electrical circuit.
Coolant temperature meter
The coolant temperature meter indi-
cates the temperature of the coolant.
The coolant temperature varies with
changes in the weather and engine
load. If the top segment flashes, stop
the vehicle, then stop the engine, and
let the engine cool. (See page 6-36.)
When the key is turned to “ON”, all dis-
play segments come on once in order
to test the electrical circuit.
NOTICE

Do not continue to operate the en-
gine if it is overheating.Transmission gear display
This display shows the selected gear.
The neutral position, however, is not
displayed, it is indicated by the neutral
indicator light.
To avoid damaging the YCC-S clutch,
the display flashes when it is necessary
to downshift. If this occurs, downshift
until the display stops flashing.Ambient temperature, instanta-
neous fuel consumption and aver-
age fuel consumption modes
(except for the UK)
Push the reset button to switch the dis-
play between the ambient temperature
mode “Air”, the instantaneous fuel con-
sumption mode “km/L” or “L/100 km”
and the average fuel consumption
mode “AV_ _._ km/L” or “AV_ _._ L/100

3Ambient temperature mode
This display shows the ambient tem-
perature from –9 °C to 50 °C in 1 °C in-
crements. The temperature displayed
may vary from the ambient tempera-
ture.TIP
If the ambient temperature falls be-
low –9 °C, a lower temperature
than –9 °C will not be displayed.
If the ambient temperature climbs
above 50 °C, a higher temperature
than 50 °C will not be displayed.
The accuracy of the temperature
reading may be affected when
riding slowly (approximately under
20 km/h) or when stopped at traffic
signals, railroad crossings, etc.
Instantaneous fuel consumption modeThe instantaneous fuel consumption
display can be set to either “km/L” or
“L/100 km”.
When the display is set to “km/L”,
the distance that can be traveled
on 1.0 L of fuel under the current
riding conditions is shown.
When the display is set to “L/100
km”, the amount of fuel necessary
to travel 100 km under the current
riding conditions is shown.
TIP
To switch between the two instan-
taneous fuel consumption dis-
plays, push the reset button for 1
second when either display is
shown.
If traveling at speeds under 10
km/h, “_ _._” will be displayed.
Average fuel consumption modeThis display shows the average fuel
consumption since it was last reset.
The average fuel consumption display
can be set to either “AV_ _._ km/L” or
“AV_ _._ L/100 km”.

on the unit set, “AV_ _._ km/L” (aver-
age distance that can be traveled using
1.0 L of fuel) or “AV_ _._ L/100 km” (av-
erage amount of fuel necessary to trav-
el 100 km) is displayed.
To reset the average fuel consumption
display, push the reset button to select
the mode again, and then push the re-
set button for 1 second while the dis-
play is flashing.

consumption display, “_ _._” will
be shown for that display until the
vehicle has traveled 1 km.
