4. Unhook the headlight bulb holder.5. Wait for the headlight bulb to cool before
touching or removing it. Remove the
burnt-out bulb by pulling it out.
6. Place a new headlight bulb into position, and then secure it with the bulb holder.
NOTICE: Do not touch the glass part of
the headlight bulb to keep it free from
oil, otherwise the transparency of the
glass, the luminosity of the bulb, and
the bulb life will be adversely affected.
Thoroughly clean off any dirt and fin-
gerprints on the headlight bulb using a
cloth moistened with alcohol or thin-
ner.

5. Rinse the vehicle off immediately with
clean water and dry all surfaces with a
clean chamois towel or soft, absorbent
cloth.
6. Clean the seats with a vinyl upholstery
cleaner to keep the covers pliable and
glossy.
7. Automotive-type wax may be applied to
all painted and chrome-plated surfaces.
Avoid combination cleaner-waxes. Many
contain abrasives which may scratch the
paint or protective finish. When finished,
start the engine and let it idle for several
minutes.EBU36120StorageLong term storage (60 days or more) of your
vehicle will require some preventive proce-
dures to guard against deterioration. Make
any necessary repairs before storing the vehi-
cle. After thoroughly cleaning the vehicle, prepare
for storage as follows:
1. Fill the fuel tank with fresh fuel and add the specified amount of Fuel Med Rx or
another high-quality fuel stabilizer prod-
uct. Follow the instructions on the prod-
uct label. Operate the vehicle for at least
5 minutes to distribute treated fuel
through the fuel system.
2. Remove the spark plug and pour one ta- blespoon of fresh engine oil into the cyl-
inder and then re-install the spark plug.
Remove the spark plug wire and ground
it. Operate the electric starter to turn the
engine over several times and coat the
cylinder walls with oil.
3. Lubricate all control cables.
Specified amount: 1 oz of stabilizer to each gallon of fuel (or
7.5 ml of stabilizer to each liter of fuel)

4. Put the frame on stands or blocks to raiseall wheels off the ground.
5. Tie a plastic bag over the exhaust pipe outlet to prevent moisture from entering.
6. If storing in a humid or salt-air atmo-
sphere, coat all exposed metal surfaces
with a light film of oil. Do not apply oil to
any rubber parts or the seat covers.
7. Remove the battery and charge it. Store it in a dry place and recharge it once a
month. Do not store the battery in an ex-
cessively warm or cold place [less than 0
°C (30 °F) or more than 30 °C (90 °F)].
Use of fuel stabilizer eliminates the need to
drain the fuel system. Consult a Yamaha
dealer if the fuel system needs to be drained.
