• Every two years replace the internal components of the brake master cyl- inders and calipers as well as YCC-S clutch master and release cylinders,
and change the brake and YCC-S clutch fluids.
• Replace the brake and YCC-S clutch hoses every four years and if cracked or damaged.

YCC-S clutch
This model is equipped with a hydrau-
lic clutch, therefore, it is necessary to
check the YCC-S clutch fluid level and
check the hydraulic system for leakage
before each ride. If the YCC-S clutch
plates wear out, shifting becomes
rough or clutch slippage will occur,
causing poor acceleration. If any of the
above occurs, have a Yamaha dealer
check the YCC-S clutch.
EAU37914
Checkin g the brake lever free
play
There should be no free play at the
brake lever end. If there is free play,
have a Yamaha dealer inspect the
brake system.
WARNING

A soft or spon gy feelin g in the b rake
lever can in dicate the presence of
air in the hy draulic system. If there is
air in the hy draulic system, have a
Yamaha dealer blee d the system be-
fore operatin g the vehicle. Air in the
hy draulic system will diminish the
b rakin g performance, which may re-
sult in loss of control an d an acci-
d ent.
