Clean the surface of the spark plug gasket
and its mating surface, and then wipe off any
grime from the spark plug threads.TIPIf a torque wrench is not available when in-
stalling the spark plug, a good estimate of the
correct torque is 1/4–1/2 turn past finger tight.
However, the spark plug should be tightened
to the specified torque as soon as possible. NOTICEECB02900Do not use any tools to remove or install
the spark plug cap, otherwise the ignition
coil coupler may be damaged. The spark
plug cap may be difficult to remove be- cause the rubber seal on the end of the cap
fits tightly. To remove the spark plug cap,
simply twist it back and forth while pulling
it out; to install it, twist it back and forth
while pushing it in.

The primary air filter is easily accessed and
should be cleaned and oiled every 300–600
km (200–400 mi).
The secondary air filter is more difficult to ac-
cess, cannot be cleaned, and should be re-
placed by a Yamaha dealer every 2000–5000
km (1200–3000 mi).TIPService the air filters more frequently when
operating in wet or dusy environments. Whenever air filter maintenance is performed:
check the air inlet for obstructions and the
air filter case for dirt and foreign matter.
 check the air filter case check hoses for dirt
or water and clean as necessary.
 check the air filter cas e joints and the rub-
ber joints to and from the throttle body for
proper fit and sealing.
 tighten all fittings securely to avoid the pos-
sibility of unfiltered air entering the engine.
NOTICEECB02270Never operate the engine with the air filter
element removed. Doing so would allow
unfiltered air to enter, causing rapid en-
gine wear and possible engine damage.
Additionally, the fuel injection system
would be affected, resulting in poor engine
performance and possible overheating. Clean the primary air filter as follows.
1. Remove panel C (page 8-11).
2. Remove the air filter case cover by turn- ing the air filter case cover lock counter-
clockwise.TIPMake sure that the match mark on the cover
lock is aligned with the open match mark on
the air filter case cover.

10. Thoroughly apply Yamalube foam air fil-ter oil (or other quality liquid foam air fil-
ter—do not use a spray-type product) to
the foam material. The foam air filter ele-
ment should be wet but not dripping.
11. Pull the foam air filter element over its frame.
12. Install the air filter.
13. Install the air filter case cover and lock it
into place by turning the air filter case
cover lock clockwise.
TIPMake sure that the match mark on the cover
lock is aligned with the close match mark on
the air filter case cover. 14. Install the panel.EBU35130Cleaning the air filter case check hosesThere is a check hose on each side of the air
filter case. If dust or water collects in a check
hose, empty the hose and clean the air filter
element and air filter case.1. Match mark
