Push the “INFO” button to switch the
display between the ambient tempera-
ture display “Air”, the battery voltage,
the average fuel consumption mode
“Ave/Cons__._km/L” or “Ave/Cons
__._ L/100 km”, the instantaneous fuel
consumption mode “Cons__._km/L”
or “Cons__._L/100 km”, and the aver-
age speed “Ave” in the following order:
Air → → Ave/Cons_ _._ km/L or
L/100 km → Cons__._km/L or L/100

For the UK only:
Push the “INFO” button to switch the
display between the ambient tempera-
ture display “Air”, the battery voltage,

Fuel tank capTo open the fuel tank cap
1. Insert the key into the lock and
turn it counterclockwise. The lock
will be released and the lid can be
pulled open.
2. To remove the fuel tank cap, turn
it counterclockwise and then pull it
off.
To close the fuel tank cap
1. Place the fuel tank cap onto the
fuel tank opening and turn the fuel
tank cap clockwise.
WARNING
EWA11092
Make sure that the fuel tank cap is
properly closed after filling fuel.
Leaking fuel is a fire hazard.2. Close the lid, turn the key clock-
wise to the original position, and
then remove it.
EAU13222
FuelMake sure there is sufficient gasoline in
the tank.
WARNING
EWA10882
Gasoline and gasoline vapors are
extremely flammable. To avoid fires
and explosions and to reduce the
risk of injury when refueling, follow
these instructions.1. Before refueling, turn off the en-
gine and be sure that no one is sit-
ting on the vehicle. Never refuel
while smoking, or while in the vi-
cinity of sparks, open flames, or
other sources of ignition such as
the pilot lights of water heaters
and clothes dryers.
2. Do not overfill the fuel tank. When
refueling, be sure to insert the
pump nozzle into the fuel tank filler
hole. Stop filling when the fuel
reaches the bottom of the filler
tube. Because fuel expands when
it heats up, heat from the engine or
the sun can cause fuel to spill out
of the fuel tank.

3. Wipe up any spilled fuel immedi-
ately. NOTICE: Immediately
wipe off spilled fuel with a clean,
dry, soft cloth, since fuel may
deteriorate painted surfaces or
plastic parts.

4. Be sure to securely close the fuel
tank cap.
WARNING
EWA15152
Gasoline is poisonous and can
cause injury or death. Handle gaso-
line with care. Never siphon gasoline
by mouth. If you should swallow
some gasoline or inhale a lot of gas-
oline vapor, or get some gasoline in
your eyes, see your doctor immedi-ately. If gasoline spills on your skin,
wash with soap and water. If gaso-
line spills on your clothing, change
your clothes.
EAU54601
NOTICE
ECA11401
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 premium unleaded gas-
oline with a research octane number of
95 or higher. If knocking (or pinging)
occurs, use a gasoline of a differentbrand. Use of unleaded fuel will extend
spark plug life and reduce mainte-
nance costs.
Gasohol
There are two types of gasohol: gaso-
hol containing ethanol and that con-
taining 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.

this manual, have the vehicle inspected by a Yamaha dealer.Before using this vehicle, check the following points:
ITEM CHECKS PAGE
Fuel• Check fuel level in fuel tank.
• Refuel if necessary.
• Check fuel line for leakage.3-17
Engine oil• Check oil level in engine.
• If necessary, add recommended oil to specified level.
• Check vehicle for oil leakage.6-12
Final transmission oil• Check vehicle for oil leakage. 6-14
Coolant• Check coolant level in reservoir.
• If necessary, add recommended coolant to specified level.
• Check cooling system for leakage.6-15
Front brake• Check operation.
• If soft or spongy, have Yamaha dealer bleed hydraulic system.
• Check brake pads for wear.
• Replace if necessary.
• Check fluid level in reservoir.
• If necessary, add specified brake fluid to specified level.
• Check hydraulic system for leakage.6-21, 6-21, 6-22

Read the Owner’s Manual carefully to
become familiar with all controls. If
there is a control or function you do not
understand, ask your Yamaha dealer.
WARNING

Failure to familiarize yourself with
the controls can lead to loss of con-
trol, which could cause an accident
or injury.

TIPThis model is equipped with a lean an-
gle sensor to stop the engine in case of
a turnover. In this case, the multi-func-
tion display indicates error code 30,
but this is not a malfunction. Turn the
key to “OFF” and then to “ON” to clear
the error code. Failing to do so will pre-
vent the engine from starting even
though the engine will crank when
pushing the start switch.

Tips for reducing fuel con-
sumptionFuel consumption depends largely on
your riding style. Consider the follow-
ing tips to reduce fuel consumption:
Avoid high engine speeds during
acceleration.
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 traf-
fic lights or at railroad crossings).
EAU16831
Engine break-inThere is never a more important period
in the life of your engine than the period
between 0 and 1000 km (600 mi). For
this reason, you should read the fol-
lowing material carefully.
Since the engine is brand new, do not
put an excessive load on it for the first
1000 km (600 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.
EAUS1841
0–500 km (0–300 mi)
Avoid prolonged operation above 5000
r/min.
500–1000 km (300–600 mi)
Avoid prolonged operation above 7500
r/min. NOTICE: After 1000 km (600
mi) of operation, be sure to replace
the engine oil, final transmission oil
and the oil filter element.
[ECA12932]
1000 km (600 mi) and beyond
The vehicle can now be operated nor-
mally.NOTICE
ECA10311
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.
