Changing the display item
Push the “SELECT” button to switch
the display between the instanta-
neous fuel consumption mode “km/L”
or “L/100 km”, average fuel con-
sumption mode “AVE_ _._ km/L” or
“AVE_ _._ L/100 km”, coolant tem-
perature mode “ C”, air intake tem-
perature mode “Air_ _  C”, odometer
mode “ODO”, and tripmeter modes
“TRIP 1” and “TRIP 2” in the following
order:
km/L or L/100 km  AVE_ _._ km/L or
AVE_ _._ L/100 km   C  Air_ _ C
 ODO  TRIP 1  TRIP 2  km/L
or L/100 km
When the display units have been set
to miles:
km/L, L/100 km or MPG  AVE_ _._
km/L, AVE_ _._ L/100 km or AVE_ _._ MPG
 C  Air_ _ C  ODO 
TRIP 1  TRIP 2  km/L, L/100 km or
MPG
TIPPush the “RESET” button to switch thedisplay in the reverse order.
If the last segment of the fuel meter
starts flashing, the display automatical-
ly changes to the fuel reserve tripmeter
mode “F-TRIP” and starts counting the
distance traveled from that point. In this
case, push the “SELECT” button to
switch the display in the following order:
F-TRIP  km/L or L/100 km 
AVE_ _._ km/L or AVE_ _._ L/100
km  C  Air_ _ C  ODO 
TRIP 1  TRIP 2  F-TRIP
When the display units have been set
to miles:
F-TRIP  km/L, L/100 km or MPG 
AVE_ _._ km/L, AVE_ _._ L/100 km or
AVE_ _._ MPG   C  Air_ _ C 
ODO  TRIP 1  TRIP 2  F-TRIP
TIP
To reset a tripmeter, select it by
pushing the “SELECT” button. The
tripmeter will flash for a few sec-
onds. While the tripmeter is flash-
ing, push the “RESET” button for
one second.

If you do not reset the fuel reserve
tripmeter manually, it resets auto-
matically and disappears after re-fueling and traveling 5 km (3 mi).
Instantaneous fuel consumption
mode
The instantaneous fuel consumption
display can be set to either “km/L”,
“L/100 km” or “MPG” (when the dis-


“km/L”: The distance that can be
traveled on 1.0 L of fuel under the
current riding condi
tions is shown.

“L/100 km”: The amount of fuel
necessary to travel 100 km under
the current riding conditions is
shown.

“MPG”: The distance that can be
traveled on 1.0 Imp.gal of fuel un-
der the current riding conditions is
shown.
To switch between the instantaneous
fuel consumption display settings, push
the “SELECT” button for one second.
TIPIf traveling at speeds under 20 km/h (12mi/h), “_ _._” is displayed. Average fuel consumption mode
This display shows the average fuel
consumption since it was last reset.
The average fuel consumption display
can be set to either “AVE_ _._ km/L”,
“AVE_ _._ L/100 km” or “AVE_ _._
MPG” (when the display units have
been set to miles:).

“AVE_ _._ km/L”: The average dis-
tance that can be traveled on 1.0 L
of fuel is shown.

“AVE_ _._ L/100 km”: The average
amount of fuel necessary to travel
100 km is shown.

“AVE_ _._ MPG”: The average
distance that can be traveled on
1.0 Imp.gal of fuel is shown.To switch between the average fuel
consumption display settings, push the
“SELECT” button for one second.
To reset the average fuel consumption,
select it by pushing the “SELECT” but-
ton. The average fuel consumption dis-
play will flash for a few seconds. While
the display is flashing, push the “RE-
SET” button for one second.
TIPAfter resetting the average fuel con-
sumption, “_ _._” will be shown until thevehicle has traveled 1 km (0.6 mi).

NOTICE
ECA23990

Even with the transmission in
the neutral position, do not
coast for long periods of time
with the engine off, and do not
tow the motorcycle for long dis-
tances. The transmission is
properly lubricated only when
the engine is running. Inade-
quate lubrication may damage
the transmission.

Except when upshifting with the
quick shift system, always use
the clutch while changing gears
to avoid damaging the engine,
transmission, and drive train,
which are not designed to with-
stand the shock of forced shift-ing.
EAU16811
Tips for reducing fuel
consumptionFuel consumption depends largely on
your riding style. Consider the following
tips to reduce fuel consumption:
Shift up swiftly, and avoid high en-
gine speeds during acceleration.

Do not rev the engine while shifting
down, and avoid high engine
speeds with no load on the engine.

Turn the engine off instead of let-
ting it idle for an extended length of
time (e.g., in traffic jams, at traffic
lights or at railroad crossings).
EAU16842
Engine break-inThere is never a more important period
in the life of your engine than the period
between 0 and 1600 km (1000 mi). For
this reason, you should read the follow-
ing material carefully.
Since the engine is brand new, do not
put an excessive load on it for the first
1600 km (1000 mi). The various parts in
the engine wear and polish themselves
to the correct operating clearances.
During this period, prolonged full-throt-
tle operation or any condition that might
result in engine overheating must be
avoided.
EAU17094
0–1000 km (0–600 mi)
Avoid prolonged operation above 5600
r/min. NOTICE: After 1000 km (600
mi) of operation, the engine oil must
be changed and the oil filter car-
tridge or element replaced.
[ECA10303]
1000–1600 km (600–1000 mi)
Avoid prolonged operation above 6800
