the display between the odometer
mode “ODO”, the tripmeter modes
“TRIP 1” and “TRIP 2”, the instanta-
neous fuel consumption mode “km/L”
or “L/100 km”, and the average fuel
consumption mode “AVE_ _._ km/L” or
“AVE_ _._ L/100 km” in the following or-

WARNING
EWA16070
Changing settings while riding can
distract the operator. Therefore, take
extra precaution when changing
modes while riding.When the vehicle is stopped, push the
upper side of the traction control sys-
tem switch for at least two seconds to
turn the traction control system off.
Push the lower side of the switch to turn
the traction control system on.
When the vehicle is stopped or while
riding, close the throttle and push the
lower side of the switch to change from
modes 1 to 6. Close the throttle and
push the upper side of the switch to
change from modes 6 to 1.TIPThe vehicle was set to “TCS” mode 6 at
the time of manufacture.
Resetting
The traction control system may be dis-
abled in the following conditions:●
Either the front wheel or rear wheel
comes off the ground while riding
●
Excessive rear wheel spinning If the traction control system has been
disabled, both the traction control sys-
tem indicator/warning light and the en-
gine trouble warning light come on.
To reset the traction control system:
Turn the key to “OFF”. Wait at least one
second, then turn the key back to “ON”.
The traction control system indica-
tor/warning light should go off and the
system will be enabled. The engine
trouble warning light should go off after
the motorcycle reaches at least 20
km/h (12 mi/h). If the traction control
system indicator/warning light and/or
engine trouble warning light still remain
on after resetting, the motorcycle may
still be ridden; however, have a
Yamaha dealer check the motorcycle as soon as possible.NOTICE

OPERATION AND IMPORTANT RIDING POINTS

EAU16810
Tips for reducing fuel con-
sumption Fuel consumption depends largely on
your riding style. Consider the following
tips to reduce fuel consumption:●
Shift up swiftly, and avoid high en-
gine speeds during acceleration.
●
Do not rev the engine while shifting
down, and 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 crossings).
EAU16841
Engine break-in There is never a more important period
in the life of your engine than the period
between 0 and 1600 km (1000 mi). For
this reason, you should read the follow-
ing material carefully.
Since the engine is brand new, do not
put an excessive load on it for the first
1600 km (1000 mi). The various parts in
the engine wear and polish themselves
to the correct operating clearances.
During this period, prolonged full-throt-
tle operation or any condition that might
result in engine overheating must be
avoided.
EAU17083
0–1000 km (0–600 mi)
Avoid prolonged operation above 6900
r/min. NOTICE: After 1000 km (600
mi) of operation, the engine oil must
be changed and the oil filter car-
tridge or element replaced.
[ECA10302]
1000–1600 km (600–1000 mi)
Avoid prolonged operation above 8300
r/min. 1600 km (1000 mi) and beyond
The vehicle can now be operated nor-
mally.
NOTICE
ECA10310
●
Keep the engine speed out of
the tachometer red zone.
●
If any engine trouble should oc-
cur during the engine break-in
period, immediately have a
Yamaha dealer check the vehi-
cle.
TIPDuring and after the engine break-in
period, the exhaust heat may cause
discoloration of the exhaust pipe, but
this is normal.
