Fuel tank overflow hose
The overflow hose drains excess gaso-
line and directs it safely away from the
vehicle.
Before operating the vehicle:
Check the fuel tank overflow hose
connection.
Check the fuel tank overflow hose
for cracks or damage, and replace
it if necessary.
Make sure that the fuel tank over-
flow hose is not blocked, and
clean it if necessary.
Make sure that the fuel tank over-
flow hose is positioned as shown.
TIP
See page 6-11 for canister information.
EAU13435
Catalytic converter
The exhaust system contains catalytic
converter(s) to reduce harmful exhaust
emissions.
WARNING
EWA10863
The exhaust system is hot after op-
eration. To prevent a fire hazard or
burns:
Do not park the vehicle near
possible fire hazards such as
grass or other materials that
easily burn.
Park the vehicle in a place
where pedestrians or children
are not likely to touch the hot
exhaust system.
Make sure that the exhaust sys-
tem has cooled down before
doing any maintenance work.
Do not allow the engine to idle
more than a few minutes. Long
idling can cause a build-up of
heat.

Sidestand
The sidestand is located on the left
side of the frame. Raise the sidestand
or lower it with your foot while holding
the vehicle upright.
TIP
The built-in sidestand switch is part of
the ignition circuit cut-off system,
which cuts the ignition in certain situa-
tions. (See the following section for an
explanation of the ignition circuit cut-
off system.)
WARNING
EWA10242
The vehicle must not be ridden with
the sidestand down, or if the side-
stand cannot be properly moved up
(or does not stay up), otherwise the
sidestand could contact the ground
and distract the operator, resulting
in a possible loss of control.
Yamaha’s ignition circuit cut-off
system has been designed to assist
the operator in fulfilling the respon-
sibility of raising the sidestand be-
fore starting off. Therefore, check
this system regularly and have a
Yamaha dealer repair it if it does not
function properly.
EAU63432
Ignition circuit cut-off system
This system prevents in-gear engine
starts unless the clutch lever is pulled
and the sidestand is up. Also, it will
stop the running engine should the
sidestand be lowered while the trans-
mission is in gear.
Periodically check the system via the
following procedure.
TIP
This check is most reliable if per-
formed with a warmed-up engine.
See pages 3-2 and 3-22 for switch
operation information.
