Tachometer
The tachometer allows the rider to
monitor the engine speed and keep it
within the ideal power range.
When the key is turned to “ON”, the ta-
chometer will sweep across the r/min
range and then return to zero r/min in
order to test the electrical circuit.NOTICE

3 Oil change indicator “OIL”
This indicator flashes (message “OIL
SERV” will also appear) to indicate that
the engine oil should be changed. It will
come on at the initial 1000 km (600 mi)
service interval, 2000 km (1200 mi) af-
ter that, and every 3000 km thereafter.
After changing the engine oil, reset the
oil change indicator.
To reset the oil change indicator dis-
play (mode “ODO” should be select-
ed), push the “RESET” button for two
seconds until “OIL SERV” message
flashes and then push and hold the
“RESET” button for at least 15 sec-
onds. “DIST SERV” mode (oil service
reminder which shows the riding dis-
tance since last reset) will also be reset.
TIPIf the engine oil is changed before the
oil change indicator comes on (i.e. be-
fore the set oil service interval has been
reached), the indicator must be reset
for the next oil change to be indicated
at the correct time. To reset the oil
change indicator before the periodic oil
change interval has been reached, fol-
low the below procedure.
To reset the oil change indicator (mode
“ODO” should be selected), select
“DIST SERV” by pushing the “INFO”
button, and then push the “RESET”
button for two seconds until “DIST
SERV” mode flashes and then push
and hold the “RESET” button for at
least 15 seconds, “OIL SERV” mes-
sage will also be reset.
Low battery warning indicator “ ”
This indicator flashes (message “LOW
BATT” will also appear) when the bat-
tery voltage is under 10 volts.TIPIf the low battery indicator comes on

Self-diagnosis device
This model is equipped with a self-di-

circuits.
If a problem is detected in any of those
circuits, the engine trouble warning
light will come on and the display will
indicate an error code.
If the display indicates any error codes,
note the code number, and then have
a Yamaha dealer check the vehicle.NOTICE

If the display indicates an error
code, the vehicle should be checked
as soon as possible in order to avoid
engine damage.

Brake pedalThe brake pedal is located on the right
side of the motorcycle. To apply the

pedal.
EAU60021
ABS (for ABS models)The Yamaha ABS (Anti-lock Brake
System) features a dual electronic con-
trol system, which acts on the front and
rear brakes independently.
Operate the brakes with ABS as you
would conventional brakes. If the ABS
is activated, a pulsating sensation may
be felt at the brake lever or brake ped-
al. In this situation, continue to apply
the brakes and let the ABS work; do
not “pump” the brakes as this will re-
duce braking effectiveness.
WARNING
EWA16051
Always keep a sufficient distance
from the vehicle ahead to match the
riding speed even with ABS.
The ABS performs best with
long braking distances.
On certain surfaces, such as
rough or gravel roads, the brak-
ing distance may be longer with
the ABS than without.The ABS is monitored by an ECU,
which will revert the system to conven-
tional braking if a malfunction occurs.
TIPThe ABS performs a self-diagno-
sis test each time the vehicle first
starts off after the key is turned to
“ON” and the vehicle has traveled
at a speed of 10 km/h (6 mi/h) or
higher. During this test, a “click-
ing” noise can be heard from the
hydraulic control unit, and if the
brake lever or brake pedal is even
slightly applied, a vibration can be
felt at the lever and pedal, but
these do not indicate a malfunc-
tion.
This ABS has a test mode which
allows the owner to experience
the pulsation at the brake lever or
brake pedal when the ABS is op-
erating. However, special tools are
required, so please consult your
Yamaha dealer.NOTICE
ECA20100
Be careful not to damage the wheel
sensor or wheel sensor rotor; other-
wise, improper performance of the
ABS will result.
