TIP
z This mark identifies the recom-
mended fuel for this vehicle as
specified by European regulation
(EN228).
z Check that gasoline nozzle has
the same identifier when fueling.
Your Yamaha engine has been de-
signed to use regular unleaded gaso-
line with a research octane number of
95 or higher. If knocking (or pinging)
occurs, use a gasoline of a different
brand or premium unleaded fuel. Use
of unleaded fuel will extend spark plug
life and reduce maintenance costs.
Gasohol
There are two types of gasohol: gaso-
hol containing ethanol and that con-
taining methanol. Gasohol containing
ethanol can be used if the ethanol con-
tent does not exceed 10% (E10). Gas-
ohol containing methanol is not
recommended by Yamaha because it
can cause damage to the fuel system
or vehicle performance problems.

Fuel tank overflow hose
Before operating the vehicle:
z Check the fuel tank overflow hose
connection and routing.
z Check the fuel tank overflow hose
for cracks or damage, and replace
it if necessary.
z Make sure that the fuel tank over-
flow hose is not blocked, and
clean it if necessary.

4. If the engine oil is below the mini-
mum level mark, add sufficient oil
of the recommended type to raise
it to the correct level.
To chan ge the en gine oil (with or
without oil filter element replace-
ment) 1. Start the engine, warm it up for several minutes, and then turn it
off.
2. Place an oil pan under the engine to collect the used oil.
3. Remove the engine oil filler cap and its O-ring, and then remove
the engine oil drain bolt and its
gasket to drain the oil from the
crankcase.
4. Check the O-ring for damage, and replace it if necessary.
TIP
Skip steps 5–7 if the oil filter element is
not being replaced.
5. Remove the oil filter element coverby removing the bolts.
6. Remove and replace the oil filter element and O-ring.
