Tachometer
The tachometer shows the engine speed in
crankshaft revolutions per minute (r/min).
When the vehicle is first powered on, the ta-
chometer needle will sweep once across the
r/min range and then return to zero r/min in
order to test the electrical circuit.NOTICEECB02920Do not operate the engine in the tachome-
ter red zone.Red zone: 10500 r/min and above
Odometer and tripmeters
The odometer shows the total distance trav-
eled by the vehicle. The odometer can be
used for maintenance and service intervals.
The tripmeters show the distance traveled
since they were last reset. The tripmeters can
be used to record the distance traveled on a
single trip, or to estimate the distance that
can be traveled with a full tank of gas, etc.

Push the “SELECT” button to switch between
the odometer “ODO” and the tripmeters
“TRIP A” and “TRIP B” in the following order:
ODO → TRIP A → TRIP B → ODO
To reset a tripmeter, set the display to the
tripmeter you want to reset, then push the
“RESET” button for three seconds.TIP The odometer will lock at 99999.
 The tripmeters will reset and continue
counting after 9999.9 is reached.
Clock, hour meter, voltage display and
coolant temperature display
The clock displays time in 12-hour format.
The hour meter shows the total time the en-
gine has been running.
The voltage display shows the battery volt-
age.
The coolant temperature display shows the
temperature of the coolant.1. Clock/Hour meter/Voltage display/Coolant temperature

Push the “MODE” button to switch between
the clock “CLOCK”, the hour meter “HOUR”,
the voltage display “VOLTAGE”, and the
coolant temperature display in the following
order:
CLOCK → HOUR → VOLTAGE → coolant
temperature → CLOCKTIPIf the engine overheats, the coolant tempera-
ture warning light will come on, and the cool-
ant temperature display will be automatically
selected. To set the clock1. Set the display to the clock.
2. Push both the “SELECT” button and
“RESET” button for th ree seconds. The
hour digits will start flashing.
3. Push the “RESET” button to set the hours. 4. Push the “SELECT” button, and the mi-
nute digits will start flashing.
5. Push the “RESET” button to set the minu- tes.
6. Push the “SELECT” button, and then re-
lease it to start the clock.
Voltage display
This display shows “ ” and the battery volt-
age.
If the battery voltage is less than 10 volts,
“LO” is displayed, and if the voltage is above
16 volts, “HI” is displayed.1. Voltage display

NOTICEECB02050If the voltage display indicates “LO” or
“HI”, there may be trouble with the battery
charging circuit or the battery may be
faulty. If this occurs, have a Yamaha dealer
check or repair the vehicle. Coolant temperature displayThis shows the coolant temperature from 0
°C (32 °F) to 128 °C (263 °F) in 1 °C (1 °F) in-
crements. When the coolant temperature isbelow 0 °C (32 °F), “LO” will be displayed.
When the coolant temperature is between
122 °C (252 °F) and 128 °C (263 °F), the cool-
ant temperature display will flash. In this case,
stop the vehicle in a safe place and let it idle
for 10 minutes. If the message “HI” flashes,
stop the engine and let it cool. (See page
8-67.)
TIP
The coolant temperature display can be set
to “°C” or “°F”. To switch the temperature
units, turn the key to “ ” (off), then hold
the “RESET” button pushed and turn the
key to “ ” (on).
 The coolant temperature varies with chang-
es in the weather and engine load.

Fuel gauge
The fuel gauge indicates the amount of fuel in
the fuel tank. The display segments of the fuel
gauge disappear from “F” (full) towards “E”
(empty) as the fuel level decreases. When the
last segment on the left disappears and the
fuel level warning indicator flashes, refuel as
soon as possible.
TIPThis fuel gauge is equipped with a self-diag-
nosis system. If a problem is detected in an
electrical circuit, all the display segments and
fuel level warning indicator start flashing. If
this occurs, have a Yamaha dealer check the
electrical circuit. Transmission gear display

neutral position is indicated by “N” and by the
neutral indicator light “N”.
Shift light control mode
The shift timing indicator light has three set-
tings which can be adjusted.
Flashing pattern: this function allows you to
choose whether or not the indicator light
will come on and whether it should flash or
stay on when activated. 
Activation point: this function allows you to
select the engine speed at which the indi-
cator light is activated.
 Deactivation point: this function allows you
to select the engine speed at which the in-
dicator light is deactivated.
To adjust the shift timing indicator light
1. Turn the key to “ ” (off).
2. Push and hold the “MODE” button.
3. Turn the key to “ ” (on), and then re- lease the “MODE” button after five sec-
onds. After all segments of the display
disappear and the shift timing indicator
light comes on, the shift timing indicator
light can be adjusted.
To set the flashing pattern1. Push the “RESET” button to select one of the following flashing pattern settings:
On: the indicator light stays on when
activated. (The indicator light will con-
firm this setting by staying on.)

Flash: the indicator light flashes when
activated. (The indicator light will con-
firm this setting by flashing four times
per second.)
 Off: the indicator light is deactivated; in
other words, it does not come on or
flash. (The indicator light will confirm
this setting by flashing once every two
seconds.)
2. Push the “MODE” button to confirm the selected flashing pattern. The control
mode changes to the activation point set-
ting mode. The shift timing indicator light
remains on and the tachometer shows
the current setting r/min for the activation
point.
To set the shift activation point
TIP The shift timing indicator light activation
point can be set between 7000 r/min and
12000 r/min. The activation point can be set
in increments of 500 r/min. 
The tachometer needle will start over at
7000 r/min after 12000 r/min.
1. Push the “RESET” button to select the
desired engine speed for activating the
indicator light.
2. Push the “MODE” button to confirm the selected engine speed. The shift timing
indicator light flashes and the tachometer
shows the current setting r/min for the
deactivation point.
To set the deactivation pointTIP The shift timing indicator light deactivation
point can be set between 7000 r/min and
12000 r/min. The deactivation point can be
set in increments of 500 r/min.
 Be sure to set the deactivation point to a
higher engine speed than for the activation
point, otherwise the shift timing indicator
light will not come on.

de. Error code display
This model is equipped with a self-diagnosis
device for various electrical circuits.
If a problem is detected in any of those cir-
cuits, the engine trouble warning light and/or
the YCC-S system warning light will come on
or flash, and the display will indicate an error
code.
