Adjusting the front and rear
suspensionThis model is equipped with an elec-
tronically adjustable suspension sys-
tem. The preload of the rear shock
absorber and the damping forces of
both the front fork and rear shock ab-
sorber can be adjusted.
WARNING
EWA12423
Be sure to stop the vehicle before
making any setting changes to the
multi-function meter unit. Changing
settings while riding can distract the
operator and increase the risk of an
accident.Preload
When riding with luggage or a passen-
ger, use the preload adjusting function
to adjust the suspension system to
match the load. There are 4 preload
settings.TIPThe preload adjusting function will
appear only when the engine is
running.Changing the preload setting will
also adjust the front and rear sus-
pension damping forces accord-
ingly. See “Damping force” on
page 3-44 for more information.
About cold temperature opera-
tion:
• When using the preload adjust-
ing function, there should be no
weight on the vehicle.
• When using the preload adjust-
ing function at ambient temper-
atures near or below 0 °C (32
°F), to protect the preload ad-
justing function motor, the elec-
tronically adjustable suspension
system warning light may come
on.
• The suspension will still operate
as normal, only the preload ad-
justing function cannot be used.
• To reset the electronically ad-
justable suspension system
warning light, wait approximate-
ly 6 minutes and then turn the
key to “OFF” or immediately
turn the key to “OFF” and then
wait 6 minutes.

EAU15952
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
EWA10272
Failure to familiarize yourself with
the controls can lead to loss of con-
trol, which could cause an accident
or injury.
EAU62990
TIPThis model is equipped with:
a lean angle sensor to stop the en-
gine in case of a turnover. In this
case, the display will indicate error
code 30, but this is not a malfunc-
tion. Turn the key to “OFF” and
then to “ON” to clear the error
code. Failing to do so will prevent
the engine from starting even
though the engine will crank when
pushing the start switch.
an engine auto-stop system. The
engine stops automatically if left
idling for 20 minutes. If the engine
stops, simply push the start
switch to restart the engine.

Starting the engine
WARNING
EWA16411
Always apply the front or rear brake
while the main switch is in the “ON”
position and the transmission is in
gear. Otherwise, the vehicle may
suddenly start to move when the en-
gine is started, causing loss of con-
trol and possibly an accident.In order for the ignition circuit cut-off
system to enable starting, one of the
following conditions must be met:
The front or rear brake is applied
with the transmission in the neu-
tral position whether the sidestand
is up or down.
The front or rear brake is applied
with the transmission in gear and
the sidestand is up.
See page 3-47 for more informa-
tion.
1. Turn the key to “ON” and make
sure that the start/engine stop
switch is set to “ ”.
The following warning lights and

NOTICE
ECA11621
In order to prevent clutch slip-
page (since the engine oil also
lubricates the clutch), do not
mix any chemical additives. Do
not use oils with a diesel speci-
fication of “CD” or oils of a high-
er quality than specified. In
addition, do not use oils labeled
“ENERGY CONSERVING II” or
higher.
Make sure that no foreign mate-
rial enters the crankcase.10. Start the engine, and then let it idle
for several minutes while checking
it for oil leakage. If oil is leaking,
immediately turn the engine off
and check for the cause.TIPAfter the engine is started, the engine
oil level warning light should go off if
the oil level is sufficient.
NOTICE
ECA10402
If the oil level warning light flickers
or remains on even if the oil level is
correct, immediately turn the engine
off and have a Yamaha dealer check
the vehicle.11. Turn the engine off, and then
check the oil level and correct it if
necessary.
EAU20017
Final gear oilThe final gear case must be checked
for oil leakage before each ride. If any
leakage is found, have a Yamaha deal-
er check and repair the vehicle. In ad-
dition, the final gear oil level must be
checked and the oil changed as fol-
lows at the intervals specified in the
periodic maintenance and lubrication
chart.
WARNING
EWA10371
Make sure that no foreign mate-
rial enters the final gear case.
Make sure that no oil gets on
the tire or wheel.To check the final gear oil level
1. Place the vehicle on the center-
stand.TIPMake sure that the vehicle is posi-
tioned straight up when checking the
oil level. A slight tilt to the side can re-
sult in a false reading.

CoolantThe 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.
EAU54161
To check the coolant level
1. Place the vehicle on the center-
stand.TIPThe coolant level must be
checked on a cold engine since
the level varies with engine tem-
perature.
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 left cowling vent pan-
el. (See page 3-40.)
3. Check the coolant level in the
coolant reservoir.TIPThe coolant should be between the
minimum and maximum level marks.
4. If the coolant is at or below the
minimum level mark, remove the
coolant reservoir cap.
5. Add coolant or distilled water to
raise the coolant to the maximum
level mark, and install the coolantreservoir cap. WARNING! Re-
move only the coolant reservoir
cap. Never attempt to remove
the radiator cap when the en-
gine is hot.
[EWA15162]
NOTICE: If
coolant is not available, use dis-
tilled water or soft tap water in-
stead. Do not use hard water or
salt water since it is harmful to
the engine. If water has been
used instead of coolant, replace
it with coolant as soon as possi-
ble, otherwise the cooling sys-
tem will not be protected
against frost and corrosion. If
water has been added to the
coolant, have a Yamaha dealer
check the antifreeze content of
the coolant as soon as possible,
otherwise the effectiveness of
the coolant will be reduced.
