EAS2GB2032INDICATOR LIGHTS AND WARNING
LIGHTS
1. Engine trouble warning light “ ”
2. Fuel level warning light “ ”
Fuel level warning light “ ”
This warning light comes on when the fuel level
drops below approximately 1.6 L (0.42 US gal,
0.35 Imp.gal). When this occurs, refuel as soon
as possible.
The electrical circuit of the warning light can be
checked by pushing the start switch. The warn-
ing light should come on for a few seconds, and
then go off.
If the warning light does not come on initially
when the start switch is pushed, or if the warn-
ing light remains on, have a Yamaha dealer
check the electrical circuit.
Engine trouble warning light “ ”
This warning light comes on or flashes if a prob-
lem is detected in the electrical circuit monitor-
ing the engine. If this occurs, have a Yamaha
dealer check the vehicle.
The electrical circuit of the warning light can be
checked by pushing the start switch. The warn-
ing light should come on for a few seconds, and
then go off.
If the warning light does not come on initially
when the start switch is pushed, or if the warn-
ing light remains on, have a Yamaha dealer
check the electrical circuit.
EAS2GB2033ENGINE STOP SWITCH
The engine stop switch “1” is located on the left
handlebar. Continue pushing the engine stop
switch till the engine comes to a stop.
After the engine stops, the multi-function dis-
play will go off and the power supply to the ECU
(Electronic Control Unit) will be cut off if the en-
gine stop switch is pushed and held.
TIP
The multi-function display will go off after one
minute if the engine stop switch is not pushed.
EAS2GB2034START SWITCH
The start switch “1” is located on the right han-
dlebar. Push this switch to crank the engine
with the starter.
EAS2GB2035CLUTCH LEVER
The clutch lever “1” is located on the left han-
dlebar. The clutch lever disengages or engag-
es the clutch.
Pull the clutch lever toward the handlebar to
disengage the clutch, and release the lever to
engage the clutch.

PERIODIC MAINTENANCE
3-3
TIP
• The air filter needs more frequent service if you are riding in unusually wet or dusty areas.
• Hydraulic brake service
• After disassembling the brake master cylinders and calipers, always change the fluid. Regularly
check the brake fluid levels and fill the reservoirs as required.
• Every two years replace the internal components of the brake master cylinders and calipers, and
change the brake fluid.
• Replace the brake hoses every four years and if cracked or damaged.

8. Install:
• Oil filler cap
9. Check:
• Oil level
Refer to “CHECKING THE ENGINE OIL
LEVEL” on page 3-16.
10.Check:
• Engine oil pressure
▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼
a. Slightly loosen the oil pressure check bolt
“1”.
EWA
WARNING
When the engine is started with the check
bolt removed, oil will spout; therefore, al-
ways loosen it before the checkup.
Start the engine and keep it idling until oil
starts to seep from the oil pressure check
bolt.
EWA
WARNING
Always keep the engine idling speed during
the checkup without increasing the engine
speed.
ECA
NOTICE
If no engine oil seeps out after one minute,
immediately turn the engine off so it will not
seize.
b. If no engine oil seeps out, check the engine
oil for leaks, and the engine oil passage and
the oil pump for damage.
c. Check the oil pressure again.
d. Tighten the oil pressure check bolt.

ADJUSTING THE ENGINE IDLING SPEED
TIP
• Because the air pressure is lower at high alti-
tudes, the air-fuel mixture will become richer.
If the idling speed is low, turn the starter knob/
idle screw a few clicks counterclockwise to in-
crease the speed before the adjustment.
• Before adjusting the engine idling speed,
make sure that the air filter element is not
clogged, the engine compression is proper,
and the throttle grip free play is proper.
• Adjust the engine idling speed with the starter
knob/idle screw pushed in completely.
1. Start the engine, and warm this up until the
oil has reached the specified temperature.
2. Attach the pocket tester with temperature
probe “1” to the oil drain bolt.
3. Install:
• Digital tachometer
TIP
Get the high tension cord “1” of the ignition coil
pinched in the detector “a” of the digital tachom-
eter.

ter all the bolts are loosened, remove them.
b. Remove the right crankcase “1”.
TIP
• Place the crankcase with its left side down-
ward and split it by inserting a screwdriver tip
into the splitting slit “a” in the crankcase.
• Lift the right crankcase horizontally while light-
ly patting the crankcase splitting slit and the
engine mounting boss using a soft hammer,
and leave the crankshaft and the transmission
with the left crankcase.
ECA
NOTICE

Tap only on reinforced portions of case. Do
not tap on gasket mating surface. Work
slowly and carefully. Make sure the case
halves separate evenly. If the cases do not
separate, check for a remaining case bolt or
fitting. Do not force.c. Remove the dowel pins and O-ring.
