1operator and may limit control
ability, therefore, such accesso-
ries are not recommended.
Use caution when adding electri-
cal accessories. If electrical ac-
cessories exceed the capacity of
the motorcycle’s electrical sys-
tem, an electric failure could re-
sult, which could cause a
dangerous loss of lights or engine
power.
Aftermarket Tires and Rims
The tires and rims that came with your
motorcycle were designed to match
the performance capabilities and to
provide the best combination of han-
dling, braking, and comfort. Other
tires, rims, sizes, and combinations
may not be appropriate. See page 6-16
for tire specifications and for informa-
tion on servicing and replacing your
tires.
Transporting the Motorcycle
Be sure to observe following instruc-
tions before transporting the motorcy-
cle in another vehicle.Remove all loose items from the
motorcycle.
Check that the fuel cock (if
equipped) is in the off position and
that there are no fuel leaks.
Shift the transmission into gear
(for models with a manual trans-
mission).
Secure the motorcycle with tie-
downs or suitable straps that are
attached to solid parts of the mo-
torcycle, such as the frame or up-
per front fork triple clamp (and not,
for example, to rubber-mounted
handlebars or turn signals, or
parts that could break). Choose
the location for the straps carefully
so the straps will not rub against
painted surfaces during transport.
The suspension should be com-
pressed somewhat by the tie-
downs, if possible, so that the mo-
torcycle will not bounce exces-
sively during transport.

Have a Yamaha dealer check

Immobilizer system indicator
light “ ”
When the vehicle is turned off and 30
seconds have passed, the indicator
light will flash steadily to indicate the
immobilizer system is enabled. After 24
hours have passed, the indicator light
will stop flashing, however the immobi-
lizer system is still enabled.TIPWhen the vehicle is turned on, the light
will come on for a few seconds, and go
off. Otherwise, have a Yamaha dealer
check the vehicle.Troubleshooting
If a problem is detected in the immobi-
lizer system, the light will flash in a pat-
tern. If the immobilizer system
indicator light flashes in the pattern,slowly 5 times then quickly 2 times, this
could be caused by transponder inter-
ference. If this occurs, try the following.
1. Make sure there are no other im-
mobilizer keys close to the main
switch. Other immobilizer system
keys may cause signal interfer-
ence and prevent the engine from
starting.
2. Use the code re-registering key to
start the engine.
3. If the engine starts, turn it off, and
try starting the engine with the
standard keys.
4. If one or more of the standard
keys do not start the engine, take
the vehicle and all keys to a
Yamaha dealer to have the stan-
dard keys re-registered.

WARNING
EWA12423
Be sure to stop the vehicle before
making any setting changes to the
multi-function meter unit. Changing
settings while riding can distract the
operator and increase the risk of an
accident.The multi-function meter unit is
equipped with the following:
a speedometer
a tachometer
a fuel meter
an eco indicator
a transmission gear display
a multi-function displayTIPExcept when switching to the
brightness control mode or to dis-
play the clock, turn the key to
“ON” before using the bottom and
top set buttons.
For the UK: To switch the speed-
ometer and multi-function display
between kilometers and miles, set
the multi-function display to theodometer mode or a tripmeter
mode, and then press the bottom
set button for three seconds.
Speedometer
The speedometer shows the vehicle’s
traveling speed.
Tachometer
The tachometer allows the rider to
monitor the engine speed and keep it
within the ideal power range.NOTICE
ECA10032
Do not operate the engine in the ta-
chometer red zone.Red zone: 10000 r/min and above
Fuel meter
The fuel meter indicates the amount of
fuel in the fuel tank. The display seg-
ments of the fuel meter disappear from
“F” (full tank) towards “E” (empty tank)
as the fuel level decreases. When the
last segment and frame start flashing,
refuel as soon as possible.TIPThis fuel meter is equipped with a self-
diagnosis system. If a problem is de-
tected in the fuel tank electrical circuit,

cle is being operated in an environ-
mentally friendly, fuel-efficient manner.
The indicator goes off when the vehicle
is stopped.TIPConsider the following tips to reduce
fuel consumption:
Avoid high engine speeds during
acceleration.
Travel at a constant speed.Select the transmission gear that
is appropriate for the vehicle
speed.

TIPThe odometer will lock at 999999
and cannot be reset.
The tripmeter will reset to 0 and
continue counting after 9999.9 is
reached.Push the bottom set button to switch
the display between odometer “ODO”,

The fuel reserve tripmeter and er-
ror code displays come on auto-
matically, while the brightness
control mode is accessed sepa-
rately.If the lower segment and frame of the
fuel meter start flashing, the display
automatically changes to fuel reserve
tripmeter “TRIP F” and starts counting
the distance traveled from that point. In
this case, push the bottom set buttonto switch the display between the vari-
ous tripmeter, odometer, and fuel con-
sumption modes in the following order:
TRIP F → km/L or L/100 km → AVE_
_._ km/L or AVE_ _._ L/100 km → _ _

To reset a tripmeter, select it by push-
ing the bottom set button, and then
push the top set button for one sec-
ond.
If you do not reset the fuel reserve trip-
meter manually, after refueling and
traveling 5km (3mi) it resets automati-

3Instantaneous fuel consumption
The instantaneous fuel consumption
display can be set to either “km/L” or
“L/100 km”; or for the UK, “MPG” or
“km/L” or “L/100 km”.
“km/L”: The distance that can be
traveled on 1.0 L of fuel under cur-
rent riding conditions.
“L/100 km”: The amount of fuel
necessary to travel 100 km under
current riding.
“MPG” : The distance that can be
traveled on 1.0 Imp.gal of fuel un-
der current riding conditions.
To switch the instantaneous fuel con-
sumption display settings, push the
bottom set button for two second.
TIPIf traveling at speeds under 20 km/h
Average fuel consumption
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” (for the UK).
“AVE_ _._ km/L”: The average dis-
tance that can be traveled on 1.0 L
of fuel.
“AVE_ _._ L/100 km”: The average
amount of fuel necessary to travel
100 km.“AVE_ _._ MPG” : The average
distance that can be traveled on
1.0 Imp.gal of fuel.
To switch the average fuel consump-
tion display settings, push the bottom
set button for two seconds.
