below –10 °C, a lower temperature
than –10 °C will not be displayed.
zIf the outside air temperature
climbs above 40 °C, a higher tem-
perature than 40 °C will not be dis-
played.
zThe accuracy of the temperature
reading may be affected when rid-

3Oil change tripmeter “OIL TRIP”
The oil change tripmeter shows the
distance traveled since the oil was last
changed.
The oil change indicator “OIL
CHANGE” will come on at the initial
1000 km (600 mi), then at 4000 km
(2500 mi), and then every 4000 km
(2500 mi) thereafter to indicate that the
engine oil should be changed.
After changing the engine oil, reset the
oil change indicator and the oil change
tripmeter. To reset them both, select
the oil change tripmeter, and then push
the “RESET” button for one second.
While “OIL CHANGE” is flashing, push
the “RESET” button for three to four
seconds. The oil change tripmeter will
be reset and the oil change indicator
will turn off.
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 oil change tripmeter
must be reset for the oil change indica-
tor to come on at the correct time.
V-belt replacement tripmeter “BELT
TRIP”
The V-belt replacement tripmeter
shows the distance traveled since the
V-belt was last replaced.
The V-belt replacement indicator “V-
BELT” will come on every 20000 km
(12500 mi) to indicate that the V-belt
should be replaced.
If the V-belt replacement indicator has
come on, after replacing the V-belt, re-
set the V-belt replacement indicator
and the V-belt replacement tripmeter.
To reset them both, select the V-belt
replacement tripmeter, and then push
the “RESET” button for one second.
While “V-BELT” is flashing, push the
“RESET” button for three to four sec-
onds. The V-belt replacement tripme-
ter will be reset and the V-belt
replacement indicator will turn off.
TIP
If the V-belt is replaced before the V-
belt replacement indicator comes on
(i.e., before the periodic V-belt replace-
ment interval has been reached), the V-
belt replacement tripmeter must be re-
set for the V-belt replacement indicator
to come on at the correct time.

The front brake lever is located on the
right side of the handlebar. To apply
the front brake, pull this lever toward
the throttle grip.

Rear brake lever
The rear brake lever is located on the
left side of the handlebar. To apply the
rear brake, pull the lever toward the

This model is equipped with a unified
brake system.
When pulling the rear brake lever, the
rear brake and a portion of the front
brake are applied. For full braking per-
formance, apply both brake levers si-
multaneously.
TIP
zAs the unified brake system is me-
chanical, additional free play can
be felt in the front brake lever
when the rear brake lever is being
pulled.
zThe unified brake system does not
function when the front brake is
applied alone.
