3 The electric tachometer allows the rid-
er to monitor the engine speed and
keep it within the ideal power range.
NOTICE
ECAM1150
Do not operate the engine in the ta-
chometer high-rpm zone.
High-rpm zone: 10000 r/min and
above
Fuel meter
With the key in the “ON” position, the
fuel meter indicates the amount of fuel
in the fuel tank. The display segments
of the fuel meter disappear towards
“E” (Empty) as the fuel level decreases.
When the fuel level reaches the bottom
segment near “E”, the bottom segment
will flash. Refuel as soon as possible.
Clock
To set the clock:
1. Push the “SELECT” button for 3
seconds, and the hour digits will
start flashing.
2. Use the “SELECT” button to set
the hours.3. Push the “SELECT” button for 3
seconds, and the minute digits will
start flashing.
4. Use the “SELECT” button to set
the minutes.
5. Push the “SELECT” button for 3
seconds to complete setting the
clock.
Odometer and tripmeter display
The odometer and tripmeter display is
equipped with the following:
a tripmeter (which shows the dis-
tance traveled since last set to ze-
ro)
a time tripmeter (which shows the
elapsed riding time since last set
to zero)
a fuel reserve tripmeter (which
shows the distance traveled since
the fuel level warning light came
on)
an oil change tripmeter (which
shows the distance traveled since
the last engine oil change)
a V-belt replacement tripmeter
(which shows the distance trav-
eled since the last V-belt replace-
ment)

3Pushing the “TRIP” button switches
the display between the odometer
mode and the various tripmeter modes
in the following order:
Odo (odometer) → Trip (tripmeter) →
Trip Time (time tripmeter) → Oil (oil
change tripmeter) → V-Belt (v-belt re-
placement tripmeter) → Odo (odome-
ter)
When approximately 2.5 L (0.66 US
gal, 0.55 Imp.gal) of fuel remains in the
fuel tank, the display will automatically
change to the fuel reserve tripmeter
mode “F Trip” and start counting the
distance traveled from that point. In
that case, pushing the “TRIP” button
switches the display between the vari-
ous tripmeter and odometer modes in
the following order:
Odo → Trip → Trip Time → F Trip (fuel
reserve tripmeter) → Oil Trip → V-Belt
Trip → Odo
Oil Trip and V-Belt Trip display total
distance traveled from the first run or
when the last reset was done.
To reset a tripmeter, select it by push-
ing the “TRIP” button until “Trip, Trip
Time, F Trip” is displayed. While “Trip,
Trip Time, F Trip” is displayed, push
the “TRIP” button for 3 seconds. If you
do not reset the fuel reserve tripmeter
manually, it will reset itself automatical-
ly and the display will return to the prior
mode after refueling and traveling 5 km
(3 mi).
TIP
The display cannot be changed back

Oil change indicator “Oil”
This indicator flashes at the initial 1000
km (600 mi), then at 5000 km (3000 mi)
and every 6000 km (3500 mi) thereafter
to indicate that the engine oil should be
changed.
After changing the engine oil, reset the
oil change indicator.
To reset the oil change indicator
1. Turn the key to “ON”.
2. Push the “TRIP” button until “Oil”
(oil change tripmeter) is displayed
in the odometer and trip meter dis-
play. While “Oil” is displayed, push
the “RESET” button for at least 3
seconds. The oil change tripmeter
value will flash.
3. Hold the “RESET” button pushed
for 15 to 20 seconds.

the oil trip value will reset to zero.
TIP
If the engine oil is changed before the
oil change indicator comes on (i.e. be-
fore the periodic oil change interval has
been reached), the indicator must be
reset after the oil change for the next
periodic oil change to be indicated at
the correct time. To reset the oil
change indicator before the periodic oil
change interval has been reached, fol-
low the above procedure.
The electrical circuit of the indicator
can be checked according to the fol-
lowing procedure.

2. Check that the oil change indica-
tor comes on for a few seconds
and then goes off.
3. If the oil change indicator does not
come on, have a Yamaha dealer
check the electrical circuit.
V-belt replacement indicator “V-
Belt”
This indicator flashes every 18000 km
(10500 mi) when the V-belt needs to be
replaced.
After changing the V-belt, reset the V-
belt replacement indicator.
To reset the V-belt replacement indi-
cator
1. Turn the key to “ON”.
2. Push the “TRIP” button until “V-
Belt” (V-belt replacement tripme-
ter) is displayed in the odometer
and trip meter display. While “V-
Belt” is displayed, push the “RE-SET” button for 3 seconds. The V-
belt replacement tripmeter value
will flash.
3. Hold the “RESET” button pushed
for 15 to 20 seconds.
4. Release the “RESET” button, and
the V-belt trip value will reset to
zero.
TIP
If the V-belt is replaced before the indi-
cator comes on, be sure to reset the V-
belt replacement indicator so that it will
come on at the next correct interval.
The electrical circuit of the indicator
can be checked according to the fol-
lowing procedure.

Multi-function display
The multi-function display is equipped
with the following:
an ambient temperature display
a battery voltage level display
a fuel consumption display (aver-
age and instantaneous consump-
tion functions)

shows the average speed since
last set to zero)
a warning message function
a self-diagnosis device
Push the “INFO” button to switch the
display between the ambient tempera-
ture display “Air”, the battery voltage,
the average fuel consumption mode
“Ave/Cons__._km/L” or “Ave/Cons__._ L/100 km”, the instantaneous fuel
consumption mode “Cons__._km/L”
or “Cons__._L/100 km”, and the aver-
age speed “Ave” in the following order:
Air → → Ave/Cons_ _._ km/L or
L/100 km → Cons__._km/L or L/100
km → Ave → Air
For the UK only:
Push the “INFO” button to switch the
display between the ambient tempera-
ture display “Air”, the battery voltage,
