“RESET” button briefly so that the trip-
meter flashes, and then push the “RE-
SET” button again for at least 2
seconds while the tripmeter is flashing.
If you do not reset the fuel reserve trip-
meter manually, it will reset itself auto-
matically and the display will return to
the prior mode after refueling and trav-
eling 5 km (3 mi).
Estimated traveling range display:
The distance that can be traveled with
the remaining fuel in the fuel tank under
the current riding conditions is shown.
Elapsed time display:The time that has elapsed since the
key was turned to “ON” is shown. The
maximum time that can be shown is
99:59. This display is automatically reset
when the key is turned to “OFF”.
TIPThere are also “TIME–2” and “TIME–3”
elapsed time displays, but they cannot
be set to the information display. See
“Setting mode” on page 3-16 for de-
tailed information.Air intake temperature display:The air intake temperature display indi-
cates the temperature of the air drawn
into the air filter case.
This display shows the air intake tem-
perature from –9 °C to 93 °C in 1 °C in-
crements. The temperature displayed
may vary from the ambient tempera-
ture.TIP
–9 °C will be displayed even if the
air intake temperature falls below
–9 °C. 
The accuracy of the temperature
reading may be affected when rid-
ing slowly [approximately under
20 km/h (12 mi/h)] or when
stopped at traffic signals, railroad
crossings, etc.
Coolant temperature display:The coolant temperature display indi-
cates the temperature of the coolant.
The coolant temperature varies with
changes in the weather and engine
load.
If the message “Hi” flashes, stop the
vehicle, then stop the engine, and let
the engine cool. (See page 6-39.)

EAU58280
Recommended shift points
The recommended shift points during
acceleration and deceleration are
shown in the table below.
EAU16811
Tips for re ducin g fuel con-
sumptionFuel consumption depends largely on
your riding style. Consider the follow-
ing tips to reduce fuel consumption:
 Shift up swiftly, and avoid high en-
gine speeds during acceleration.
 Do not rev the engine while shift-
ing down, and avoid high engine
speeds with no load on the en-
gine.
 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).
EAU16842
Engine break-inThere is never a more important period
in the life of your engine than the period
between 0 and 1600 km (1000 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
1600 km (1000 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.
EAU58990
0–1000 km (0–600 mi)
Avoid prolonged operation above 3900
r/min. NOTICE: After 1000 km (600
mi) of operation, the en gine oil an d
final gear oil must b e changed , an d
the oil filter cartri dge or element re-
placed .
