1. Final transmission oil fi ller cap4. Remove the fi nal transmission oil
filler cap and its O-ring from the
fi nal transmission case.
5. Remove the fi nal transmission oil
drain bolt and its gasket to drain
the oil from the fi nal transmission
case.
EAU20065
Final transmission oilThe final transmission case must be
checked for oil leakage before each
ride. If any leakage is found, have a
Yamaha dealer check and repair the
scooter. In addition, the fi nal transmis-
sion oil must be changed as follows at
the intervals specified in the periodic
maintenance and lubrication chart.
1. Start the engine, warm up the fi -
nal transmission oil by riding the
scooter for several minutes, and
then stop the engine.
2. Place the scooter on the center-
stand.
3. Place an oil pan under the final
transmission case to collect the
used oil.
9. Start the engine, and then let
it idle for several minutes while
checking it for oil leakage. If oil is
leaking, immediately turn the en-
gine off and check for the cause.
10. Turn the engine off, and then
check the oil level and correct it if
necessary.
To reset the oil change indicator
and oil change tripmeterTIPThe oil change indicator and oil
change tripmeter can be reset when
“OIL CHANGE” and “OIL TRIP” ap-
pear in the multi-function display. (see
page 3-3.)

the intervals specified in the periodic
maintenance and lubrication chart.
1. Place the vehicle on the center-

checked on a cold engine since
the level varies with engine tem-
perature.● Make sure that the vehicle is po-

Checking and lubricating the
cablesThe operation of all control cables
and the condition of the cables should
be checked before each ride, and
the cables and cable ends should be
lubricated if necessary. If a cable is
damaged or does not move smoothly,
have a Yamaha dealer check or re-
place it. WARNING! Damage to the
outer housing of cables may result
in internal rusting and cause in-
terference with cable movement.
Replace damaged cables as soon
as possible to prevent unsafe
conditions.
[EWA10711]
Recommended lubricant:

Changing the brake uidHave a Yamaha dealer change the
brake fl uid at the intervals specifi ed in
the TIP after the periodic maintenance
and lubrication chart. In addition, have
the oil seals of the brake master cyl-
inder and caliper as well as the brake
hose replaced at the intervals listed
below or whenever they are damaged
or leaking.● Oil seals: Replace every two
years.● Brake hose: Replace every four
years. go down. A low brake fl uid level may
indicate worn brake pads and/or brake
system leakage; therefore, be sure to
check the brake pads for wear and the
brake system for leakage. If the brake
fl uid level goes down suddenly, have
a Yamaha dealer check the cause be-
fore further riding.

Matte color caution
ECA15192
NOTICESome models are equipped with
matte colored finished parts. Be
sure to consult a Yamaha dealer for
advice on what products to use be-
fore cleaning the vehicle.
Using a brush, harsh chemical
products or cleaning compounds
when cleaning these parts will
scratch or damage their surface.
Wax also should not be applied to
any matte colored nished parts.
EAU26094
CareWhile the open design of a scooter
reveals the attractiveness of the tech-
nology, it also makes it more vulner-
able. Rust and corrosion can develop
even if high-quality components are
used. A rusty exhaust pipe may go
unnoticed on a car, however, it de-
tracts from the overall appearance of
a scooter. Frequent and proper care
does not only comply with the terms of
the warranty, but it will also keep your
scooter looking good, extend its life
and optimize its performance.
Before cleaning
1. Cover the muffler outlet with a
plastic bag after the engine has
cooled down.
2. Make sure that all caps and cov-
ers as well as all electrical cou-
plers and connectors, including
the spark plug cap, are tightly
installed.
3. Remove extremely stubborn dirt,
like oil burnt onto the crankcase,
with a degreasing agent and
a brush, but never apply such
products onto seals, gaskets and
wheel axles. Always rinse the dirt
and degreaser off with water.
Cleaning
ECA10783
NOTICE● Avoid using strong acidic
wheel cleaners, especially
on spoked wheels. If such
products are used on hard-to-
remove dirt, do not leave the
cleaner on the affected area
any longer than instructed.
Also, thoroughly rinse the area
off with water, immediately dry
it, and then apply a corrosion
protection spray.● Improper cleaning can dam-
age plastic parts (such as
cowlings, panels, windshields,
headlight lenses, meter lenses,
etc.) and the muf ers. Use only
a soft, clean cloth or sponge
with water to clean plastic.
However, if the plastic parts
cannot be thoroughly cleaned

steel exhaust systems can be
removed through polishing.)
3. To prevent corrosion, it is recom-
mended to apply a corrosion pro-
tection spray on all metal, includ-
ing chrome- and nickel-plated,
surfaces.
4. Use spray oil as a universal
cleaner to remove any remaining
dirt.
5. Touch up minor paint damage
caused by stones, etc.
6. Wax all painted surfaces.
7. Let the scooter dry completely
before storing or covering it.
EWA10942
WARNING
Contaminants on the brakes or
tires can cause loss of control.● Make sure that there is no oil
or wax on the brakes or tires.
If necessary, clean the brake
discs and brake linings with a
regular brake disc cleaner or
acetone, and wash the tires
with warm water and a mild de-
tergent.● Before operating the vehicle,
test its braking performance
and cornering behavior.
ECA10800
NOTICE● Apply spray oil and wax spar-
ingly and make sure to wipe off
any excess.● Never apply oil or wax to any
rubber and plastic parts, but
treat them with a suitable care
product.● Avoid using abrasive polishing
compounds as they will wear
away the paint.
TIP● Consult a Yamaha dealer for ad-
vice on what products to use.● Washing, rainy weather or humid
climates can cause the headlight
lens to fog. Turning the headlight
on for a short period of time will
help remove the moisture from
the lens.
EAU36563
StorageShort-term
Always store your scooter in a cool,
dry place and, if necessary, protect
it against dust with a porous cover.
Be sure the engine and the exhaust
system are cool before covering the
scooter.
ECA10820
NOTICE● Storing the scooter in a poorly
ventilated room or covering it
with a tarp, while it is still wet,
will allow water and humidity to
seep in and cause rust.● To prevent corrosion, avoid
damp cellars, stables (because
of the presence of ammonia)
and areas where strong chemi-
cals are stored.
Long-term
Before storing your scooter for several
months:
1. Follow all the instructions in the
“Care” section of this chapter.
2. Fill up the fuel tank and add fuel
stabilizer (if available) to prevent

the fuel tank from rusting and the
fuel from deteriorating.
3. Perform the following steps to
protect the cylinder, piston rings,
etc. from corrosion.
a. Remove the spark plug cap
and spark plug.
b. Pour a teaspoonful of engine
oil into the spark plug bore.
c. Install the spark plug cap onto
the spark plug, and then place
the spark plug on the cylinder
head so that the electrodes are
grounded. (This will limit spark-
ing during the next step.)
d. Turn the engine over several
times with the starter. (This will
coat the cylinder wall with oil.)
e. Remove the spark plug cap
from the spark plug, and then
install the spark plug and the
spark plug cap. WARNING!
To prevent damage or injury
from sparking, make sure to
ground the spark plug elec-
trodes while turning the en-
gine over.
[EWA10951]
4. Lubricate all control cables and
the pivoting points of all levers
and pedals as well as of the
sidestand/centerstand.
5. Check and, if necessary, correct
the tire air pressure, and then
lift the scooter so that both of its
wheels are off the ground. Alter-
natively, turn the wheels a little
every month in order to prevent
the tires from becoming degraded
in one spot.
6. Cover the muffler outlet with a
plastic bag to prevent moisture
from entering it.
7. Remove the battery and fully
charge it. Store it in a cool,
dry place and charge it once a
month. Do not store the battery
in an excessively cold or warm
place [less than 0 °C (30 °F) or
more than 30 °C (90 °F)]. For
more information on storing the
battery, see page 6-26.
TIPMake any necessary repairs before
storing the scooter.
