Use only unleaded gasoline. The use
of 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 engine has been de-
signed to use regular unleaded gaso-
line with a pump octane number
[(R+M)/2] of 86 or higher, or a research
octane number of 91 or higher. If knocking (or pinging) occurs, use a
gasoline of a different brand or premi-
um unleaded fuel. Use of unleaded fuel
will extend spark plug life and reduce
maintenance costs.
Gasohol
There are two types of gasohol: gaso-
hol containing ethanol and that contain-
ing methanol. Gasohol containing
ethanol can be used if the ethanol con-
tent does not exceed 10% (E10). Gas-
ohol containing methanol is not
recommended by Yamaha because it
can cause damage to the fuel system
or vehicle performance problems.

PERIODIC MAINTENANCE AND ADJUSTMENT
7-7
7To install the spark plug
1. Clean the surface of the spark plug gasket and its mating surface, and
then wipe off any grime from the
spark plug threads.
2. Install the spark plug with the spark plug wrench, and then tight-
en it to the specified torque.
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 finger tight. However, the spark
plug should be tightened to the speci-
fied torque as soon as possible.3. Install the spark plug cap.
EAU49932
Engine oil The engine oil level should be checked
before each ride. In addition, the oil
must be changed at the intervals spec-
ified in the periodic maintenance and
lubrication chart.
To check the engine oil level1. Place the motorcycle on a level surface and hold it in an upright po-
sition. A slight tilt to the side can re-
sult 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 set- tles, remove the engine oil filler
cap, wipe the engine oil dipstick
clean, insert it back into the oil filler
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.
4. If the engine oil is at or below theminimum level mark, add sufficient
oil of the recommended type to
raise it to the correct level.
5. Insert the dipstick into the oil filler hole, and then tighten the oil filler
cap.
To change the engine oil 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.

73. Clean the mesh with solvent, andthen wipe the solvent off.
4. Clean the sponge material with solvent, and then squeeze the re-
maining solvent out. WARNING!
Use only a dedicated parts
cleaning solvent. To avoid the risk of fire or explosion, do not
use gasoline or solvents with a
low flash point.

NOTICE:
To avoid damaging the foam
material, handle it gently and
carefully, and do not twist or
wring it.
[ECA10511]
5. Apply oil of the recommended type to the entire surface of the sponge
material, and then squeeze the ex-
cess oil out.TIPThe sponge material should be wet but
not dripping.
6. Insert the mesh and the spongematerial into the air filter case.
NOTICE: Make sure that the
mesh and the sponge material
are properly seated in the air fil-
ter case. The engine should
never be operated without the
mesh and the sponge material
installed, otherwise the pis-
ton(s) and/or cylinder(s) may
become excessively worn.
[ECA15572]
7. Install the air filter case cover by in- stalling the screws.
To clean the air filter check hose 1. Check the hose at the bottom of the air filter case for accumulated
dirt or water.
