5. Use the right set button to set the
minutes.
6. Push the left set button and then release it to start the clock.
Fuel meter
The fuel meter indicates the amount of
fuel in the fuel tank. The segments of
the fuel meter disappear from “F” (full)
towards “E” (empty) as the fuel level
decreases. When the last segment of
the fuel meter and the fuel level warn-
ing indicator start flashing, refuel as
soon as possible.
TIPThe fuel meter is equipped with a self-
diagnosis function. If a problem is de-
tected in the fuel meter electrical cir-
cuit, the fuel meter and the fuel level
warning indicator will flash repeatedly.
If this occurs, have a Yamaha dealer
check the vehicle.Eco in dicator
The eco indicator comes on when the
vehicle is being operated in an environ-
mentally friendly, fuel-efficient manner.
The indicator goes off when the vehicle
is stopped.
TIPConsider the following tips to reduce
fuel consumption:  Avoid high engine speeds during
acceleration.
 Travel at a constant speed.
 Select the transmission gear that
is appropriate for the vehicle
speed.Transmission gear display
The transmission gear display shows
the selected gear. The neutral position
is indicated by “–” and by the neutral
indicator light.

stantaneous fuel consumption “km/L”,
“L/100 km” or “MPG”, average fuel
consumption “AVE_ _._ km/L”, “AVE_
_._ L/100 km” or “AVE_ _._ MPG”,
coolant temperature “_ _ °C”, and air
temperature “Air_ _ °C” in the following
order:
ODO → TRIP 1 → TRIP 2 → km/L,
L/100 km or MPG → AVE_ _._ km/L,
AVE_ _._ L/100 km or AVE_ _._ MPG →
_ _ °C → Air_ _ °C → ODO
TIP Push the right set button to chan-
ge the display in the reverse order.
 The fuel reserve tripmeter and the
self-diagnosis mode come on au-
tomatically, while the brightness
control mode is accessed sepa-
rately.Odometer an d tripmeters
The odometer shows the total distance
traveled by the vehicle.
The tripmeters show the distance trav-
eled since they were last reset.
To reset a tripmeter, use the left set
button to display the tripmeter you
want to reset, and then push the right
set button for one second.TIP The odometer will lock at 999999
and cannot be reset.
 The tripmeters will lock at 9999.9
but can be manually reset.

Fuel reserve tripmeter
When the fuel level becomes low, the
fuel level warning indicator and the last
segment of the fuel meter will start
flashing. The display will change to the
fuel reserve tripmeter “TRIP F” and
start counting the distance traveled
from that point. In this case, push the
left set button to switch the display in
the following order:
TRIP F →
km/L or L/100 km → AVE_
_._ km/L or AVE_ _._ L/100 km → _ _
°C → Air_ _ °C → ODO → TRIP 1 →
TRIP 2 → TRIP F
For the UK:
TRIP F → km/L, L/100 km or MPG →
AVE_ _._ km/L, AVE_ _._ L/100 km or
AVE_ _._ MPG → _ _ °C → Air_ _ °C →
ODO → TRIP 1 → TRIP 2 → TRIP F
TIPPush the right set button to chan-
ge the display in the reverse order. 
You can manually reset the fuel re-
serve tripmeter, or after refueling
and traveling 5 km (3 mi) it will re-
set automatically and disappear
from the display.
Instantaneous fuel consumption
This function calculates the fuel con-
sumption under current riding condi-
tions.
The instantaneous fuel consumption
can be set to either “km/L”, “L/100 km”
or “MPG” (for the UK).
 “km/L”: The distance that can be
traveled on 1.0 L of fuel under the
current riding conditions is shown. 
“L/100 km”: The amount of fuel
necessary to travel 100 km under
the current riding conditions is
shown.
 “MPG” (for the UK): The distance
that can be traveled on
1.0 Imp.gal of fuel under the cur-
rent riding conditions is shown.
To switch the instantaneous fuel con-
sumption settings, push the left set
button for one second.
TIPIf traveling at speeds under 20 km/h
(12 mi/h), “_ _._” is displayed.Avera ge fuel consumption

3 This function calculates the average
fuel consumption since it was last re-
set.
The average fuel consumption can be
set to either “AVE_ _._ km/L”, “AVE_
_._ L/100 km” or “AVE_ _._ MPG” (for
the UK).
 “AVE_ _._ km/L”: The average dis-
tance that can be traveled on 1.0 L
of fuel is shown.
 “AVE_ _._ L/100 km”: The average
amount of fuel necessary to travel
100 km is shown.
 “AVE_ _._ MPG” (for the UK): The
average distance that can be trav-
eled on 1.0 Imp.gal of fuel is
shown.
To switch the average fuel consump-
tion settings, push the left set button
for one second.
To reset the average fuel consumption,
push the right set button for at least
one second.
TIPAfter resetting the average fuel con-
sumption, “_ _._” will be shown until
the vehicle has traveled 1 km (0.6 mi).
Coolant temperature
This shows the coolant temperature
from 40 °C to 116 °C in 1 °C incre-
ments.
If the message “HI” flashes, stop the
vehicle, then stop the engine, and let it
cool. (See page 6-43.)TIP When the coolant temperature is
below 40 °C, “LO” will be dis-
played.
 The coolant temperature varies
with changes in the weather and
engine load.
Air temperature
This shows the air temperature from
–9 °C to 99 °C in 1 °C increments.
The temperature displayed may vary
from the ambient temperature.TIP When the temperature is below
–9 °C, “LO” will be displayed.
 The accuracy of the temperature
reading may be affected by engine
heat when riding slowly (under 20
km/h [12 mi/h]) or when stopped
at traffic signals, etc.

Recommen ded 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.
EAU17094
0–1000 km (0–600 mi)
Avoid prolonged operation above 5000
r/min. NOTICE: After 1000 km (600
mi) of operation, the en gine oil must
b e chan ged an d the oil filter car-
tri dge or element replace d.
[ECA10303]
1000–1600 km (600–1000 mi)
Avoid prolonged operation above 6000
r/min.
Shift up points:
1st → 2nd: 20 km/h (12 mph)
2nd → 3rd: 30 km/h (19 mph)
3rd → 4th: 40 km/h (25 mph)
4th → 5th: 50 km/h (31 mph)
5th → 6th: 60 km/h (37 mph)
Shift down points:
6th → 5th: 45 km/h (28 mph)
5th → 4th: 35 km/h (22 mph)
