16. Start the engine, and then let it idle for several minutes while checking
it for oil leakage. If oil is leaking,
immediately turn the engine off
and check for the cause.
TIP
After the engine is started, the engine
oil level warning light should go off if
the oil level is sufficient.
NOTICE

Final g ear oil
The final gear case must be checked
for oil leakage before each ride. If any
leakage is found, have a Yamaha deal-
er check and repair the vehicle. In ad-
dition, the final gear oil level must be
checked and the oil changed as fol-
lows at the intervals specified in the
periodic maintenance and lubrication
chart.
WARNING
EWA10371
Make sure that no forei gn mate-
rial enters the final g ear case.
Make sure that no oil g ets on
the tire or wheel.
To check the final gear oil level
1. Place the vehicle on the center- stand.
TIP
Make sure that the vehicle is posi-
tioned straight up when checking the
oil level. A slight tilt to the side can re-
sult in a false reading.
2. Remove the final gear oil filler boltand its gasket, and then check the
oil level in the final gear case.
TIP
The oil level should be at the brim of
the filler hole.
3. If the oil is below the brim of thefiller hole, add sufficient oil of the
recommended type to raise it to
the correct level.
4. Check the gasket for damage, and replace it if necessary.
5. Install the final gear oil filler bolt and its gasket, and then tighten
the bolt to the specified torque.
To chan ge the final gear oil
1. Place the vehicle on a level surfa- ce.
2. Place an oil pan under the final gear case to collect the used oil.
3. Remove the final gear oil filler bolt, the final gear oil drain bolt and
their gasket to drain the oil from
the final gear case.

Coolant
The coolant level should be checked
before each ride. In addition, the cool-
ant must be changed at the intervals
specified in the periodic maintenance
and lubrication chart.
EAU40157To check the coolant level
1. Place the vehicle on the center- stand.
TIP
The coolant level must be
checked on a cold engine since
the level varies with engine tem-
perature.
Make sure that the vehicle is posi-
tioned straight up when checking
the coolant level. A slight tilt to the
side can result in a false reading.
2. Check the coolant level in the
coolant reservoir.
TIP
The coolant should be between the mi-
nimum and maximum level marks.
3. If the coolant is at or below the mi-nimum level mark, remove the
coolant reservoir cap. WARNING!
Remove only the coolant reser-
voir cap. Never attempt to re-
move the ra diator cap when the
en gine is hot.
[EWA15162]
4. Add coolant or distilled water to
raise the coolant to the maximum
level mark, install the coolant res-
ervoir cap. NOTICE: If coolant is
not availa ble, use d istilled water
or soft tap water instea d. Do not
use har d water or salt water
since it is harmful to the en gine.
If water has been used instead
of coolant, replace it with cool-
ant as soon as possi ble, other-
wise the coolin g system will not
b e protecte d a gainst frost an d
corrosion. If water has b een
a dde d to the coolant, have a
Yamaha dealer check the anti-
freeze content of the coolant as
soon as possi ble, otherwise the
effectiveness of the coolant will
b e red uced.
