INSTRUMENT AND CONTROL FUNCTIONS
engine is not working correctly. If this
occurs, have a Yamaha dealer check
the self-diagnosis system.
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.

OPERATION AND IMPORTANT RIDING POINTS
EAU16820
Tips for reducing fuel con-
sumptionFuel consumption depends largely on
your riding style. Consider the follow-
ing tips to reduce fuel consumption:● Avoid high engine speeds during
acceleration.● Avoid high engine speeds with no
load on the engine.● Turn the engine off instead of let-
ting it idle for an extended length
of time (e.g., in traffic jams, at
traffic lights or at railroad cross-
ings).
EAU16830
Engine break-inThere is never a more important pe-
riod in the life of your engine than the
period between 0 and 1000 km (600
mi). For this reason, you should read
the following material carefully.
Since the engine is brand new, do not
put an excessive load on it for the fi rst
1000 km (600 mi). The various parts
in the engine wear and polish them-
selves to the correct operating clear-
ances. During this period, prolonged
full-throttle operation or any condition
that might result in engine overheating
must be avoided.
EAU16951
0 ~ 150 km (0 ~ 90 mi)
Avoid prolonged operation above 1/3
throttle.
After every hour of operation, stop the
engine, and then let it cool for fi ve to
ten minutes.
Vary the engine speed from time to
time. Do not operate the engine at
one set throttle position.
150 ~ 500 km (90 ~ 300 mi)
Avoid prolonged operation above 1/2
throttle.
Rev the engine freely through the
gears, but do not use full throttle at
any time.
500 ~ 1000 km (300 ~ 600 mi)
Avoid prolonged operation above
3/4 throttle.
NOTICE:
After 1000 km
(600 mi) of operation, the engine oil
must be changed and the oil strain-
er cleaned.
[ECA10351]
1000 km (600 mi) and beyond
Avoid prolonged full-throttle operation.
Vary the speed occasionally.
ECA10270
NOTICEIf any engine trouble should occur
during the engine break-in period,
immediately have a Yamaha dealer
check the vehicle.

1. Spark plug wrenchTo check the spark plug
1. Check that the porcelain insula-
tor 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
different color, the engine could be
operating improperly. Do not attempt
to diagnose such problems yourself.
Instead, have a Yamaha dealer check
the vehicle.
2. Check the spark plug for elec-
trode erosion and excessive carbon or other deposits, and re-
place it if necessary.
Speci ed spark plug:
CR7E (NGK)To install the spark plug
1. Measure the spark plug gap with
a wire thickness gauge and, if
necessary, adjust the gap to
specifi cation.ZAUM00**
1
1. Spark plug gapSpark plug gap:
0.7 ~ 0.8 mm (0.028 ~ 0.031 in)2. Clean the surface of the spark
plug gasket and its mating sur-
face, and then wipe off any grime
from the spark plug threads.
3. Install the spark plug with the
spark plug wrench, and then
tighten it to the specifi ed torque.Tightening torque:
Spark plug:
13 Nm (1.3 m·kgf, 9.4 ft·lbf)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 fi nger tight. However, the
spark plug should be tightened to the
specifi ed torque as soon as possible.
4. Install the spark plug cap.
5. Install the panel.

PERIODIC MAINTENANCE AND ADJUSTMENT
EAUT1352
Engine oil and oil strainerThe engine oil level should be
checked before each ride. In addition,
the oil must be changed and the oil
strainer cleaned at the intervals speci-
fied in the periodic maintenance and
lubrication chart. The engine oil must
also be changed at the initial 1000 km
(600 mi) and when the oil change indi-
cator fl ashes. The oil change tripmeter
must be reset after the initial 1000 km
(600 mi). (See page 3-3 for reset pro-
cedures.)
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
settles, remove the oil filler cap,
wipe the dipstick clean, insert it
back into the oil fi ller hole (without
screwing it in), and then remove it
again to check the oil level.
TIPThe engine oil should be between the
minimum and maximum level marks.ZAUM00**
12
1. Maximum level mark
2. Minimum level mark4. If the engine oil is below the mini-
mum level mark, add suffi cient oil
of the recommended type to raise
it to the correct level.
5. Insert the dipstick into the oil fi ller
hole, and then tighten the oil fi ller
cap.
To change the engine oil and clean
the oil strainer
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 bolts to drain the oil
from the crankcase.
NOTICE:

When removing the engine oil
drain bolt, the O-ring, spring,
and oil strainer will fall out.
Take care not to lose these
parts.
