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: 11250 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.
TIPIf a problem is detected in the fuel tank
electrical circuit, the fuel level seg-
ments, frame, and “ ” will flash repeat-
edly. Have a Yamaha dealer check thevehicle.Eco indicator
This indicator comes on when the vehi-
cle is being operated in an environmen-
tally 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 vehiclespeed.

12 The tripmeters “TRIP” show the dis-
tance traveled since they were last re-
set.
To reset a tripmeter, select it by push-
ing the bottom set button. The tripmeter
will flash for a few seconds. While the
tripmeter is flashing, push the top set
button for one second.
TIP
The odometer will lock at 999999.

The tripmeters will reset and con-
tinue counting after 9999.9 isreached.
Changing the display item
Push the bottom set button to switch
the display between odometer “ODO”,
tripmeters “TRIP 1” and “TRIP 2”, in-
stantaneous fuel consumption “km/L”
or “L/100 km”, average fuel consump-
tion “AVE_ _._ km/L” or “AVE_ _._
L/100 km”, coolant temperature “_ _
 C”, ambient temperature “Air_ _ C”,
and clock “_ _:_ _” in the following or-
der:
ODO  TRIP 1  TRIP 2  (TRIP F)
 km/L or L/100 km  AVE_ _._ km/L or AVE_ _._ L/100 km
 _ _ C  Air
_ _ C  Clock _ _ :_ _  ODO
When using miles:
ODO  TRIP 1  TRIP 2  (TRIP F)
 MPG  AVE_ _._ MPG  _ _ C 
Air_ _ C  Clock _ _ :_ _  ODO
TIP
Push the top set button to switch
the display in the reverse order.

The fuel reserve tripmeter “TRIPF” appears only when low on fuel.
When low on fuel, the display automat-
ically changes to “TRIP F” and starts
counting the distance traveled from that
point.
If you do not reset the fuel reserve trip-
meter manually, after refueling and
traveling 5 km (3 mi) it resets automati-
cally and disappears from the display. Instantaneous fuel consumption
The instantaneous fuel consumption
display can be set to either “km/L” or
“L/100 km”; or when using miles, to
“MPG” as well.

“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 conditions.

“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 seconds.

TIPIf traveling at speeds under 20 km/h (12mi/h), “_ _._” is displayed.
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” or
“AVE_ _._ L/100 km”, or when using
miles, to “AVE_ _._ MPG” as well.
“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.
To reset the average fuel consumption,
select it by pushing the bottom set but-
ton. The average fuel consumption dis-
play will flash for a few seconds. While
the display is flashing, push the top set
button for one second.
TIPAfter resetting the average fuel con-
sumption, “_ _._” will be shown until thevehicle has travel ed 1 km (0.6 mi). Coolant temperature
This display shows the coolant temper-
ature from 40 
C to 116 C in 1  C incre-
ments.
If the message “HI” flashes, stop the
vehicle, then stop the engine and let it
cool. (See page 6-39.)
TIP
When the coolant temperature is
below 40 C, “Lo” will be displayed.

The coolant temperature varies
with changes in the weather andengine load.

NOTICE
ECA10261

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.

Always use the clutch while
changing gears to avoid damag-
ing the engine, transmission,
and drive train, which are not
designed to withstand theshock of forced shifting.
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
