Gasoline and gasoline vapors are
extremely flammable. To avoid fires
and explosions and to reduce the
risk of injury when refueling, follow
these instructions.\4

WARNING0
Gasoline is poisonous and can
cause injury or death. Handle gaso-
line with care. Never siphon gaso-
line by mouth. If you should swal-
low some gasoline or inhale a lot of
gasoline vapor, or get some gaso-
line in your eyes, see your doctor
immediately. If gasoline spills on

\bse only unleaded gasoline. The use
o\f leaded gasoline will cause severe
damage to internal engine parts,
such as the valves and piston rings,
as well as to the exhaust system.
Your Yamaha en\fine has been \besi\f-
ne\b to use premium unlea\be\b \fasoli-
ne with a research octane number of
95 or hi\fher. If knockin\f (or pin\fin\f)
occurs, use a \fasoline of a \bifferent
bran\b. Use of unlea\be\b fuel will
exten\b spark plu\f life an\b re\buce
maintenance costs.

Before operatin\f the motorcycle:
Check the fuel tank breather/over-
flow hose connection.
Check the fuel tank
breather/overflow hose for
cracks or \bama\fe, an\b replace it
if \bama\fe\b.
Make sure that the en\b of the fuel
tank breather/overflow hose is
not blocke\b, an\b clean it if
necessary.
Make sure that the en\b of the fuel

Catalytic converters
This vehicle is equippe\b with catalytic
converters in the exhaust system.
EWA10862
The exhaust system is hot a\fter
operation. To prevent a \fire hazard
or burns:
Do not park the vehicle near
possible \fire hazards such as
grass or other materials that
easily burn.
Park the vehicle in a place
where pedestrians or children
are not likely to touch the hot
exhaust system.
Make sure that the exhaust
system has cooled down be\fo-
re doing any maintenance
work.
Do not allow the engine to idle
more than a \few minutes. Long
idling can cause a build-up o\f
heat.

Insufficient brake fluid \fay allow air to
enter t\be brake syste\f, possibly caus-
ing it to beco\fe ine\dffective.
Before riding, c\beck t\bat t\be brake flu-
id is above t\be \fini\fu\f level \fark
and replenis\b if ne\dcessary.
A low brake fluid level \fay indicate
worn brake pads and/or brake syste\f
leakage. If t\be brake fluid level is low,
be sure to c\beck t\be brake pads for
wear and t\be brake syste\f for leak-
age.
Observe t\bese precautions\d:
●W\ben c\becking t\be fluid level,
\fake sure t\bat t\be top of t\be
brake fluid reservoir is level.
●Use only t\be reco\f\fended qual-
ity brake fluid, ot\berwise t\be rub-
ber seals \fay deteriorate, caus-
ing leakage and poor braking
perfor\fance.
●Refill wit\b t\be sa\fe type of brake
fluid. Mixing fluids \fay result in a
\bar\fful c\be\fical reaction and
lead to poor braking perfor\fance.
●Be careful t\bat water does not en-
ter t\be brake fluid reservoir w\ben
refilling. Water will significantly
lower t\be boiling point of t\be fluid
and \fay result in vapor lock.
●Brake fluid \fay deteriorate paint-
ed surfaces or plastic parts. Al-
ways clean up spilled fluid i\f\fe-
diately.
●As t\be brake pads wear, it is nor-
\fal for t\be brake fluid level to
gradually go down. However, if
t\be brake fluid level goes down
suddenly, \bave a Ya\fa\ba dealer
c\beck t\be cause.
