Traction control systemThe traction control system (TCS)
helps maintain traction when acceler-
ating on slippery surfaces, such as un-
paved or wet roads. If sensors detect
that the rear wheel is starting to slip
(uncontrolled spinning), the traction
control system assists by regulating
engine power as needed until traction
is restored.
WARNING
EWA15433
The traction control system is not a
su bstitute for ri din g appropriately
for the con ditions. Traction control
cannot prevent loss of traction d ue
to excessive spee d when enterin g
turns, when acceleratin g har d at a
sharp lean an gle, or while brakin g,
an d cannot prevent front wheel slip-
pin g. As with any vehicle, approach
surfaces that may be slippery with
caution an d avoi d especially slip-
pery surfaces.
The “ ” indicator light flashes when
traction control has engaged. You may
notice slight changes in engine and ex-
haust sounds when the system has en-
gaged.
The “ ” indicator light comes on
when traction control has been turned
off.
The TCS display indicates the current
TCS setting. There are three settings.
TCS “OFF” : Turns the traction control
system off.
TCS “1” : Minimizes traction control
system assist.

3 TCS “2”
: Maximizes traction control
assist; wheel spin is most strongly con-
trolled.
TIP When the vehicle is turned on,
traction control is turned on and
set to “1” or “2” (whichever was
last selected).
Turn the traction control system
off to help free the rear wheel if the
vehicle gets stuck in mud, sand, or
other soft surfaces.NOTICE

Use only the specified tires. (See
pa ge 6-16.) Usin g different size d
tires will prevent the traction control
system from controllin g tire rotation

WARNING
EWA15441
Be sure to stop the vehicle b efore
makin g any settin g chan ges to the
traction control system. Chan gin g settin
gs while ri din g can d istract the
operator an d increase the risk of an
acci dent.
TCS settings can be changed only
when the vehicle is stopped and the
throttle closed.
Push the “TCS” button to change
between TCS settings “1” and “2”.
Push the button for two seconds
to turn the traction control system
off.
Push the button again to turn trac-
tion control back on (TCS will re-
turn to the previous setting).
Resettin g the traction control sys-
tem
The traction control system will auto-
matically disable when: a wheel comes off the ground
while riding.
excessive rear wheel spin is de-
tected while riding.
a wheel is rotated by external forc-
es with the vehicle power on (such
as when performing mainte-
nance). If the traction control system is dis-
abled, both the “ ” indicator light and
the “ ” warning light will come on.
Should this occur, try resetting the sys-
tem as follows.
1. Stop the vehicle and turn the vehi- cle off.
2. Wait a few seconds and then turn the vehicle back on.
3. The “ ” indicator light should turn off and the system be en-
abled.

Cast wheelsTo maximize the performance, durabil-
ity, and safe operation of your vehicle,
note the following points regarding the
specified wheels.
The wheel rims should be
checked for cracks, bends, warp-
age or other damage before each
ride. If any damage is found, have
a Yamaha dealer replace the
wheel. Do not attempt even the
smallest repair to the wheel. A de-
formed or cracked wheel must be
replaced.
The wheel should be balanced
whenever either the tire or wheel
has been changed or replaced. An
unbalanced wheel can result in
poor performance, adverse han-
dling characteristics, and a short-
ened tire life.

shown.
Periodically check the clutch lever free
play and, if necessary, adjust it as fol-
lows.
To increase the clutch lever free play,
turn the clutch lever free play adjusting
bolt in direction (a). To decrease the
clutch lever free play, turn the adjusting
bolt in direction (b).
TIPIf the specified free play cannot be ob-
tained as described above or if the
clutch does not operate correctly, have
a Yamaha dealer check the internal
clutch mechanism.
