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.

Transmission oil The transmission must be checked for
oil leakage before each ride. If any
leakage is found, have a Yamaha deal-
er check and repair the motorcycle. In
addition, the transmission oil must be
changed at the intervals specified in the
periodic maintenance and lubrication
chart.1. Start the engine, warm it up for several minutes, and then turn it
off.
2. Place the motorcycle on a level surface and hold it in an upright po-
sition.
3. Place an oil pan under the trans- mission case to collect the used
oil.
4. Remove the oil filler cap, the trans- mission oil drain bolt and its gasket
to drain the oil from the transmis-
sion. 5. Install the drain bolt and its new
gasket, and then tighten the bolt to
the specified torque.
6. Refill with the specified amount of the recommended transmission
oil, and then install and tighten the
oil filler cap.
Tightening torque:Spark plug:20 Nm (2.0 m·kgf, 14 ft·lbf)

NOTICE
ECA10452
●
In order to prevent clutch slip-
page (since the transmission oil
also lubricates the clutch), do
not mix any chemical additives.
Do not use oils with a diesel
specification of “CD” or oils of a
higher quality than specified. In
addition, do not use oils labeled
“ENERGY CONSERVING II” or
higher.
●
Make sure that no foreign mate-
rial enters the transmission.
7. Start the engine, and then let it idlefor several minutes while checking
it for oil leakage. If oil is leaking, im-
mediately turn the engine off and
check for the cause.
EAU20070
Coolant The coolant level should be checked
before each ride. In addition, the cool-
ant must be changed at the intervals
specified in the periodic maintenance
and lubrication chart.
EAUM1295
To check the coolant level1. Place the vehicle on a level sur- face and hold it in an upright posi-
tion.TIP●
The coolant level must be checked
on a cold engine since the level
varies with engine temperature.
●
Make sure that the vehicle is posi-
tioned straight up when checking
the coolant level. A slight tilt to the
side can result in a false reading.
2. Remove the radiator cap andcheck the coolant level in the radi-
ator. WARNING! Never attempt
to remove the radiator cap when
the engine is hot.
[EWA10381]
TIPThe coolant should be at the bottom of
the radiator filler neck. The level will
change with variation of engine temper-
ature.1. Radiator cap
1. Correct coolant level
