3 Multi-function display
Under normal conditions, the multi-
function display can be set to display
the following.
zodometer “ODO”
ztripmeters “TRIP 1” or “TRIP 2”
zoil change tripmeter “OIL TRIP”
zV-belt replacement tripmeter
“BELT TRIP”
Push the “SELECT” button to switch
the display between the odometer ,
tripmeters 1 and 2, the oil change trip-
meter and the V-belt replacement trip-
meter in the following order:
ODO → TRIP 1 → TRIP 2 → OIL TRIP
→ BELT TRIP → ODO
To reset tripmeter 1 or 2, select it by
pushing the “SELECT” button, and
then push the “RESET” button for one
second.
TIP
zThe odometer will lock at 999999.
zTripmeters 1 and 2 will reset and
continue counting after 9999.9 is
reached.
Fuel reserve tripmeter
When approximately 1.6 L (0.42 US
gal, 0.35 Imp.gal) of fuel remains in the
fuel tank, the last segment of the fuel
meter and the fuel level warning indica-
tor will start flashing. The display will
automatically change to the fuel re-
serve tripmeter and start counting the
distance traveled from that point. In
this case, push the “SELECT” button
to switch the display in the following
order:
F → TRIP 1 → TRIP 2 → OIL TRIP →
BELT TRIP → ODO → F
To temporarily turn off the fuel reserve
tripmeter, select it by pushing the “SE-
LECT” button, and then push the “RE-
SET” button for one second. To turn
the fuel reserve tripmeter back on, turn
the key to “OFF” and then to “ON”. The
fuel reserve tripmeter will be displayed
again after one minute.
The fuel reserve tripmeter will reset au-
tomatically and disappear after refuel-
ing and traveling 5 km (3 mi).

ABS (for ABS models)
Your leaning multi-wheel vehicle’s ABS
(Anti-lock Brake System) features an
electronic control system, which acts
on each of the front and rear brakes in-
dependently.
Operate the brakes with ABS as you
would conventional brakes. If the ABS
is activated, a pulsating sensation may
be felt at the brake levers. In this situa-
tion, continue to apply the brakes and
let the ABS work; do not “pump” the
brakes as this will reduce braking ef-
fectiveness.
WARNING
EWA16051
Always keep a sufficient distance
from the vehicle ahead to match the
riding speed even with ABS.
zThe ABS performs best with
long braking distances.
zOn certain surfaces, such as
rough or gravel roads, the brak-
ing distance may be longer with
the ABS than without.
The ABS is monitored by an ECU,
which will revert the system to conven-
tional braking if a malfunction occurs.
TIP
zThe ABS performs a self-diagno-
sis test each time the vehicle first
starts off after the key is turned to
“ON” and the vehicle has traveled
at a speed of 10 km/h (6 mi/h) or
higher. During this test, a “click-
ing” noise can be heard from the
front of the vehicle, and if either
brake lever is even slightly ap-
plied, a vibration can be felt at the
lever, but these do not indicate a
malfunction.zThis ABS has a test mode which
allows the owner to experience
the pulsation at the brake levers
when the ABS is operating. How-
ever, special tools are required, so
please consult your Yamaha deal-
er.
NOTICE
ECA20100
Be careful not to damage the wheel
sensor or wheel sensor rotor; other-
wise, improper performance of the
ABS will result.

Fuel tank cap
To remove the fuel tank cap
1. Open the seat. (See page 3-15.)
2. Turn the fuel tank cap counter-
clockwise and pull it off.
To install the fuel tank cap
1. Insert the fuel tank cap into the
tank opening and turn it clockwise
until the “ ” marks on the cap
and tank are aligned.
2. Close the seat.
WARNING
EWA11092
Make sure that the fuel tank cap is
properly closed after filling fuel.
Leaking fuel is a fire hazard.
EAU13222
Fuel
Make sure there is sufficient gasoline in
the tank.
WARNING
EWA10882
Gasoline and gasoline vapors are
extremely flammable. To avoid fires
and explosions and to reduce the
risk of injury when refueling, follow
these instructions.
1. Before refueling, turn off the en-
gine and be sure that no one is sit-
ting on the vehicle. Never refuel
while smoking, or while in the vi-
cinity of sparks, open flames, or
other sources of ignition such as
the pilot lights of water heaters
and clothes dryers.
2. Do not overfill the fuel tank. When
refueling, be sure to insert the
pump nozzle into the fuel tank filler
hole. Stop filling when the fuel
reaches the bottom of the filler
tube. Because fuel expands when
it heats up, heat from the engine or
the sun can cause fuel to spill out
of the fuel tank.1. Fuel tank cap

Fuel tank overflow hose
Before operating the vehicle:
zCheck the fuel tank overflow hose
connection and routing.
zCheck the fuel tank overflow hose
for cracks or damage, and replace
it if necessary.
zMake sure that the fuel tank over-
flow hose is not blocked, and
clean it if necessary.
EAU13434
Catalytic converter
This model is equipped with a catalytic
converter in the exhaust system.
WARNING
EWA10863
The exhaust system is hot after op-
eration. To prevent a fire hazard or
burns:
zDo not park the vehicle near
possible fire hazards such as
grass or other materials that
easily burn.
zPark the vehicle in a place
where pedestrians or children
are not likely to touch the hot
exhaust system.
zMake sure that the exhaust sys-
tem has cooled down before
doing any maintenance work.
zDo not allow the engine to idle
more than a few minutes. Long
idling can cause a build-up of
heat.
NOTICE
ECA10702
Use only unleaded gasoline. The use
of leaded gasoline will cause unre-
pairable damage to the catalytic
converter.

Checking the brake fluid level
Before riding, check that the brake fluid
is above the minimum level mark.
Check the brake fluid level with the top
of the reservoir level. Replenish the
brake fluid if necessary.
Front brake
Rear brake
WARNING
EWA16011
Improper maintenance can result in
loss of braking ability. Observe
these precautions:
zInsufficient brake fluid may al-
low air to enter the brake sys-
tem, reducing braking
performance.zClean the filler cap before re-
moving. Use only DOT 4 brake
fluid from a sealed container.
zUse only the specified brake flu-
id; otherwise, the rubber seals
may deteriorate, causing leak-
age.
zRefill with the same type of
brake fluid. Adding a brake fluid
other than DOT 4 may result in a
harmful chemical reaction.
zBe careful that water or dust
does not enter the brake fluid
reservoir when refilling. Water
will significantly lower the boil-
ing point of the fluid and may re-
sult in vapor lock, an
d dirt may
clog the ABS hydraulic unit
valves.
NOTICE
ECA17641
Brake 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 indi-
cate worn brake pads and/or brake
system leakage; therefore, be sure to
check the brake pads for wear and the
brake system for leakage. If the brake
fluid level goes down suddenly, have a
Yamaha dealer check the cause before
further riding.

6 Engine overheating
WARNING
EWAT1041
zDo not remove the radiator cap when the engine and radiator are hot.
Scalding hot fluid and steam may be blown out under pressure, which
could cause serious injury. Be sure to wait until the engine has cooled.
zPlace a thick rag, like a towel, over the radiator cap, and then slowly ro-
tate the cap counterclockwise to the detent to allow any residual pres-
sure to escape. When the hissing sound has stopped, press down on the
cap while turning it counterclockwise, and then remove the cap.
TIP
If coolant is not available, tap water can be temporarily used instead, provided
that it is changed to the recommended coolant as soon as possible.
Wait until the engine
has cooled.
Check the coolant
level in the reservoir
and radiator.Add coolant.
(See TIP.)
The coolant level is
OK.
There is no leakage.
There is leakage.
The coolant level is
low.
Check the cooling
system for leakage.
Have a Yamaha
dealer check and
repair the cooling
system.
Start the engine. If the engine overheats again,
have a Yamaha dealer check and repair the cooling
system.
