4. Install the drain bolt and its new gasket,and then tighten the bolt to the specified
torque.
5. Refill with the recommended final gear oil up to the brim of the filler hole. NOTICE:
Be sure no foreign material enters the
final gear case.
[ECB00422]
TIP GL-4 is a quality and additive rating; GL-5
rated hypoid gear oils may also be used.
 If desired, an SAE 80W -90 hypoid gear oil
may be used instead.
6. Check the oil filler bolt gasket for dam- age, and replace it if necessary.
7. Install the oil filler bolt and its gasket, and then tighten the bolt to the specified
torque.
8. Check for oil leakage. If oil leakage is found, check for the cause.EBU36060Differential gear oilCheck the oil level and change the differential
gear oil at the intervals specified in the gener-
al maintenance and lubrication chart.
Checking the differential gear oil level
1. Park the vehicle on a level surface.

2. Remove the differential gear oil filler boltand its gasket, and then check the oil lev-
el. It should be up to the brim of the filler
hole.
3. If the level is low, add sufficient oil of the recommended type to raise it to the
specified level. NOTICE: Be sure no for-
eign material enters the differential
gear case.
[ECB00412]
4. Check the gasket for damage, and re- place it if necessary.
5. Install the differential gear oil filler bolt and its gasket, and then tighten the bolt
to the specified torque.
Changing the differential gear oil 1. Park the vehicle on a level surface.
2. Place an oil pan under the differential gear case to collect the used oil.
3. Remove the differential gear oil filler bolt, the differential gear oil drain bolt and their
gasket to drain the oil.

WARNING
EWB03910Improper maintenance can result in loss of
braking ability or clutch operation. Ob-
serve these precautions:
 Insufficient brake or clutch fluid may al-
low air to enter the brake or clutch sys-
tem, reducing braking or clutch
performance.
 Clean the filler caps before removing.
Use only DOT 4 brake fluid from a sealed
container.
 Use only the specified brake fluid; other-
wise, the rubber seals may deteriorate,
causing leakage.
 Refill with the same type of brake fluid.
Adding a brake fluid other than DOT 4
may result in a harmful chemical reac-
tion. 
Be careful that water or dust does not
enter the brake or clutch fluid reservoir
when refilling. Water will significantly
lower the boiling point of the fluid and
may result in vapor lock.
NOTICEECB01161Brake fluid may damage painted surfaces
or plastic parts. Always clean up spilled
fluid immediately. As the brake pads wear, it is normal for the
brake fluid level to gradually go down. A low
brake fluid level may indicate worn brake
pads or brake system leakage; therefore, be
sure to check the brake pads for wear and the
brake system for leakage. A low clutch fluid
level may indicate clutch system leakage;
therefore, be sure to check the clutch system
for leakage. If the brake or clutch fluid level
goes down suddenly, have a Yamaha dealer
check and repair the vehicle before any fur-
ther operation.
