EAS2GB2014OUTLINE OF THE FI SYSTEM
The main function of a fuel supply system is to provide fuel to the combustion chamber at the opti-
mum air-fuel ratio in accordance with the engine operating conditions and the atmospheric tempera-
ture. In the conventional carburetor system, the air-fuel ratio of the mixture to be supplied to the
combustion chamber is determined by the amount of intake air and fuel that is measured on the basis
of the jets to be used in the carburetor.
Despite the same amount of intake air, the fuel amount requirement varies with the engine operating
conditions (acceleration, deceleration, and operation under a heavy load). The carburetor that mea-
sures fuel through the use of jets are provided with various auxiliary devices, so that the optimum air
fuel ratio can be obtained to accommodate frequent changes in the operating conditions of the en-
gine. This model has adopted an electronically controlled fuel injection (FI) system, in place of the
conventional carburetor system. This system can obtain the optimum air-fuel ratio required by the
engine at all times by using a microprocessor that regulates the fuel injection amount according to
the engine operating conditions detected by various sensors.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION
1-10
EAS2GB2024GASKETS, OIL SEALS AND O-RINGS
1. When overhauling the engine, replace all
gaskets and O-rings. All gasket surfaces, oil
seal lips, and O-rings must be cleaned so
that there may be no dust on them.
2. During assembly, always apply proper oil to
bearings and proper grease to oil seal lips
before installation.
EAS2GB2025LOCK WASHERS/PLATES AND COTTER
PINS
After removal, replace lock washers/plates “1”
and cotter pins with new ones. After the bolt or
nut has been tightened to specification, firmly
bend the lock tabs along a flat of the bolt or nut.
EAS2GB2026BEARINGS AND OIL SEALS
Install bearings “1” and oil seals “2” with their
manufacturer’s marks or size symbols facing
outward. During installation of an oil seal, make
sure that its main lip faces the oil chamber (the
target to be sealed). Before installation, always
apply a light coat of grease to the oil seal lip.
ECA
NOTICE
Do not spin the bearing with compressed air
because this will damage the bearing sur-
faces.
EAS2GB2027CIRCLIPS
When assembling parts, always use new cir-
clips. During installation of a circlip, make sure
that the edge “2” of the circlip “1” is positioned
opposite to the force “3” that the circlip re-
ceives. Install the circlip with its end aligned
with the center of the spline, without opening
the circlip more than necessary.

CONTROL FUNCTIONS
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.

4. To end the setting, push the “RST” button for
2 seconds or more.
TIP
• In a 30-second absence of button operation,
the setting will come to an end with the indi-
cated time.
• To reset the seconds, push the “SLCT1” but-
ton or “SLCT2” button.
Changing odometer and tripmeter A/B
(TRIP A/B)
1. Push the “SLCT2” button to change the trip-
meter display. The display will change in the
following order:
OdometerTRIP ATRIP BTRIP A
Odometer.
TIP
To reset the digits, select the tripmeter involved
and push the “RST” button for 2 seconds or
more.
EAS2GB2047CHANGEOVER TO BASIC MODE/RACE
MODE
TIP
• Measurement using the timer function can be
made in RACE MODE.
• Indicator will light up as an identifier that
shows RACE MODE has been selected.
• RACE MODE cannot display the functions as
in BASIC MODE.
• Changeover to RACE MODE forces the digits
for tripmeter A (TRIP A) in BASIC MODE to be
reset.
Changeover from BASIC MODE to RACE
MODE
1. Push the “SLCT1” button and “SLCT2” but-
ton for 2 seconds or more at the same time
to change over to RACE MODE.
TIP
Changeover to RACE MODE will put manual
start measurement on standby causing and
to flash. (For manual start, refer to “Putting
measurement on standby” in “RACE MODE”.)

STARTING AND BREAK-IN
1-33
ECA
NOTICE
If the starter motor will not turn when the
start switch is pushed, stop pushing it im-
mediately in order to avoid placing extra
load on the starter motor, and start the en-
gine by using the kickstarter.
TIP
If the engine fails to start, push the engine stop
switch and give the kickstarter 10 to 20 slow
kicks at full throttle in order to clear the engine
of the rich air-fuel mixture retained in it.
4. When the engine starts running, warm this
up one or two minutes at a steady speed (of
3000 to 5000 r/min), and then return the
starter knob/idle screw to its original posi-
tion.
EWA
WARNING
Since exhaust gas contains harmful ingre-
dients, do not start or warm it up at an ill-
ventilated place or a closed narrow place.
5. To stop the engine, push the engine stop
switch “1”.
TIP
Continue pushing the engine stop switch till the
engine comes to a full stop.Starting with the kickstarter
When using the kickstarter to start the engine,
follow the procedures as described below.
1. Fold out the kickstarter lever, push it down
lightly with your foot until resistance is felt.
2. With the throttle fully closed,push the kick-
starter down lightly until the gears engage,
and then push it down smoothly but forceful-
ly.
EWA
WARNING
Do not open the throttle while kicking the
kickstarter lever. Otherwise, the kickstarter
lever may kick back.
TIP
If the engine fails to start, push the engine stop
switch and give the kickstarter 10 to 20 slow
kicks at full throttle in order to clear the engine
of the rich air-fuel mixture retained in it.
EAS2GB2055STARTING A WARM ENGINE
Follow the same procedure as for starting a
cold engine with the exception that the starter is
not required when the engine is warm.
TIP
If it fails to start, fully open the throttle grip and
give 10 to 20 slow kicks to clear the engine of
the rich air-fuel mixture retained in it.
