EAU55393Suspension system warnin g
li g ht “ ”
This warning light comes on if a prob-
lem is detected in the electronically ad-
justable suspension system.
TIP
When the vehicle is turned on, the light
should come on for a few seconds and
then go off. If the light does not come
on, or if the light remains on, have a
Yamaha dealer check the vehicle.
EAU55431Shift down in dicator li ght “ ”
This indicator light flashes when the
transmission gear is too high for the
vehicle speed.
To avoid damaging the YCC-S clutch,
the shift down indicator light flashes
when it is necessary to downshift. If
this occurs, downshift until the indica-
tor light stops flashing.
EAU55442YCC-S system warnin g lig ht “ ”
If this warning light comes on while rid-
ing, the YCC-S system may not work
correctly. If this occurs: It may be impossible to shift out of
the gear you are in.
The clutch may stay engaged, so
a shuddering sensation may be
felt as you come to a stop.
Stop the vehicle when it is safe to do
so, and park it away from traffic. Have
a Yamaha dealer check the YCC-S
system.
TIP
In order to be able to move the vehicle
after it has stopped, if shifting is impos-
sible using the hand shift lever and shift
pedal, proceed as follows: Place the vehicle on the centerstand,
then while rotating the rear wheel, push
the shift pedal rod and shift pedal rod
pivot forward until the transmission is
in the neutral position.
The electrical circuit of the warning
light can be checked by turning the key
to “ON”. The warning light should
come on for a few seconds, and then
go off.
If the warning light does not come on
initially when the key is turned to “ON”,
or if the warning light remains on, have
a Yamaha dealer check the electrical
circuit.
EAU55452Stop mo
de in dicator li ght “ ”
This indicator light comes on when the
stop mode function is activated.
If the stop mode function fails to shift
down, the indicator light will flash.
See page 3-23 for an explanation of
the stop mode function.

level decreases. When the last seg-
ment starts flashing, refuel as soon as
possible.
When the key is turned to “ON”, all dis-
play segments come on once in order
to test the electrical circuit.
TIP
If a problem is detected in the fuel me-
ter electrical circuit, the fuel meter dis-
play segments will flash repeatedly.
Have a Yamaha dealer check the vehi-
cle.
Eco in
dicator
This indicator comes on when the vehi-
cle is being operated in an environ-
mentally friendly, fuel-efficient manner.
The indicator goes off when the vehicle
is stopped.
TIP
Consider 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.
Transmission gear display
This display shows the selected gear.
The neutral position is indicated
by “ ” and by the neutral indicator
light “ ”.
To avoid damaging the YCC-S clutch,
the shift down indicator light flashes
when it is necessary to downshift. If
this occurs, downshift until the display
stops flashing.

This display indicates which drive
mode has been selected: Touring

3 Using this switch changes the drive
mode to touring mode “T” or sports
mode “S”.
The throttle grip must be completely
closed in order to change the drive mo-
de.
The selected mode is shown on the
drive mode display. (See page 3-11.)
The drive mode cannot be changed
while the cruise control system is oper-
ating.
EAU55492
YCC-S system
The Yamaha Chip Controlled-Shift
(YCC-S) system allows you to shift
gears without a clutch lever. Further-
more, a shift lever is equipped on the
handlebar, allowing you to shift gears
with either the foot-operated shift ped-
al or the hand-operated shift lever.
When the engine is running and the
shift pedal or the shift lever is moved,
an electronic signal is sent to the MCU
which disengages the clutch, the ECU
adjusts the throttle valve, the gear shift
is made, and then the clutch is re-en-
gaged.
This is not an automatic transmission,
only the clutch system is automatic.
Gear shifts must still be made by the
rider.
TIP
Optimal clutch engagement is cal-
culated by the MCU according to
engine speed, vehicle speed, and
other factors.
See also Stop mode switch (page
3-23) and Shifting (page 5-4) for
more information.

Startin g the en gine
The ignition circuit cut-off system will
enable starting when:
the transmission is in the neutral
position or
the transmission is in gear, the
sidestand is up, and the clutch le-
ver is pulled.
To start the engine
1. Turn the main switch on and set the engine stop switch to the run
position.
2. Confirm the indicator and warning light(s) come on for a few sec-
onds, and the go off. (See page
3-3.)
TIP
Do not start the engine if the en-
gine trouble warning light or the oil
level warning light remains on.
The ABS warning light should
come on and stay on until the ve-
hicle reaches a speed of 10 km/h
(6 mi/h).
NOTICE
ECA24110
If a warnin g or in dicator li ght does
not work as d escribed a bove, have a
Yamaha dealer check the vehicle.
3. Shift the transmission into the
neutral position.
4. Start the engine by pushing the start switch.
5. Release the start switch when the engine starts, or after 5 seconds.
Wait 10 seconds before pressing
the switch again to allow battery
voltage to restore.

EAU55482
Shiftin g
Shifting gears lets you control the
amount of engine power available for
starting off, accelerating, climbing hills,
etc.
The gears can be shifted using either
the shift pedal or the hand shift lever.
Refer to page 3-24 for an explanation
of the YCC-S system, to page 3-25 for
the shift pedal operation, and to page
3-26 for the hand shift lever operation.
The gear positions are shown in the il-
lustration.
TIP
To shift the transmission into the
neutral position, press the shift
pedal down repeatedly, or push the “ ” side of the hand shift lever
repeatedly until the neutral indica-
tor light comes on.
When shifting from neutral to 1st
gear, the engine speed must be
lower than approximately 1300
r/min and the sidestand must be
up.
Shifting up is impossible if the en-
gine speed is too low.
Shifting down is impossible if the
engine speed is too high.
To avoid damaging the YCC-S
clutch, the shift down indicator
light flashes when it is necessary
to downshift. If this occurs, down-
shift until the indicator light stops
flashing.
When the stop mode function is
activated, the transmission auto-
matically shifts down when com-
ing to a stop.
NOTICE
ECA17951
Even with the transmission in the
neutral position, d o not coast for
lon g period s of time with the eng ine
off, an d d o not tow the vehicle for
lon g d istances. The transmission is
properly lu bricated only when the
en gine is runnin g. Ina dequate lu bri-
cation may d amage the transmis-
sion.
