WARNING
●
Suspension components become hot
during operation. Never touch the
compression damping force adjusting
screw, the rebound damping force ad-
justing screw or the oil reservoir with
your bare hand or skin until suspen-
sion components have cooled.
●
Always adjust the shock absorber as-
semblies on the left and right side to
the same setting. Uneven adjustment
can cause poor handling and loss of
stability, which could lead to an acci-
dent.

TIPAlthough the total number of clicks of a damp-
ing force adjusting mechanism may not exact-
ly match the above specifications due to small
differences in production, the actual number
of clicks always represents the entire adjust-
ing range. To obtain a precise adjustment, it
would be advisable to check the number of
clicks of each damping force adjusting mech-
anism and to modify the specifications as nec-
essary.

EVU01010Troubleshooting
Although Yamaha vehicles receive an inspec-
tion before shipment from the factory, trouble
may occur during operation. Any problem in
the fuel, compression, or ignition systems can
cause poor starting and loss of power. The
troubleshooting chart describes a quick, easy
procedure for making checks. If your vehicle
requires any repair, take it to a Yamaha deal-
er.
The skilled technicians at a Yamaha dealer-
ship have the tools, experience, and know-
how to properly service your vehicle. Use only
genuine Yamaha parts on your vehicle. Imita-
tion parts may look like Yamaha parts, but
they are often inferior. Consequently, they
have a shorter service life and can lead to ex-
pensive repair bills.
Tightening torque:
Panel nut: 7 Nm (0.7 m·kgf, 5.1 ft·lbf)
