TIPThe fuel tank cap cannot be installed
unless the key is in the lock. In addi-
tion, the key cannot be removed if the
cap is not properly installed and
locked.3. Close the lock cover.
WARNING
EWA11142
Make sure that the fuel tank cap is
properly installed before riding.
Leaking fuel is a fire hazard.
EAU13222
FuelMake sure there is sufficient gasoline in
the tank.
WARNING
EWA10882
Gasoline and gasoline vapors are
extremely flammable. To avoid fires
and explosions and to reduce the
risk of injury when refueling, follow
these instructions.1. Before refueling, turn off the en-
gine and be sure that no one is sit-
ting on the vehicle. Never refuel
while smoking, or while in the vi-
cinity of sparks, open flames, or
other sources of ignition such as
the pilot lights of water heaters
and clothes dryers.
2. Do not overfill the fuel tank. When
refueling, be sure to insert the
pump nozzle into the fuel tank filler
hole. Stop filling when the fuel
reaches the bottom of the filler
tube. Because fuel expands when
it heats up, heat from the engine or
the sun can cause fuel to spill out
of the fuel tank.3. Wipe up any spilled fuel immedi-
ately. NOTICE: Immediately
wipe off spilled fuel with a clean,
dry, soft cloth, since fuel may
deteriorate painted surfaces or
plastic parts.
[ECA10072]
4. Be sure to securely close the fuel
tank cap.
WARNING
EWA15152
Gasoline is poisonous and can
cause injury or death. Handle gaso-
line with care. Never siphon gasoline
by mouth. If you should swallow
some gasoline or inhale a lot of gas-
oline vapor, or get some gasoline in
your eyes, see your doctor immedi-1. Fuel tank filler tube

Adjusting the headlight beamsThe headlight beam adjusting knobs
are used to raise or lower the height of
the headlight beams. It may be neces-
sary to adjust the headlight beams to
increase visibility and help prevent
blinding oncoming drivers when carry-
ing more or less load than usual. Obey
local laws and regulations when ad-
justing the headlights.
To raise the headlight beams, turn the
knobs in direction (a). To lower the
headlight beams, turn the knobs in di-
rection (b).
EAU45205
Adjusting the front fork
WARNING
EWA10181
Always adjust both fork legs equally,
otherwise poor handling and loss of
stability may result.This front fork is equipped with re-
bound damping force adjusting screws
and compression damping force ad-
justing screws.NOTICE
ECA10102
To avoid damaging the mechanism,
do not attempt to turn beyond the
maximum or minimum settings.Rebound damping force
Turn the adjusting screw in direction (a)
to increase the rebound damping
force.
Turn the adjusting screw in direction (b)
to decrease the rebound damping
force.
To set the rebound damping force, turn
the adjuster in direction (a) until it
stops, and then count the clicks in di-
rection (b).
TIPWhen turning the damping force
adjuster in direction (a), the 0 click
position and the 1 click position
may be the same.
When turning the damping force
adjuster in direction (b), it may
click beyond the stated specifica-

Operation and important riding points

5 The neutral indicator light should
come on and then the clutch lever
can be released.
WARNING
EWA17380
Improper braking can cause
loss of control or traction. Al-
ways use both brakes and apply
them smoothly.
Make sure that the motorcycle
and the engine have sufficiently
slowed before shifting to a low-
er gear. Engaging a lower gear
when the vehicle or engine
speed is too high could make
the rear wheel lose traction or
the engine to over-rev. This
could cause loss of control, an
accident and injury. It could also
cause engine or drive train dam-
age.
EAU16811
Tips for reducing fuel con-
sumptionFuel consumption depends largely on
your riding style. Consider the follow-
ing tips to reduce fuel consumption:
Shift up swiftly, and avoid high en-
gine speeds during acceleration.
Do not rev the engine while shift-
ing down, and avoid high engine
speeds with no load on the en-
gine.
Turn the engine off instead of let-
ting it idle for an extended length
of time (e.g., in traffic jams, at traf-
fic lights or at railroad crossings).
EAU17214
ParkingWhen parking, stop the engine, and
then remove the key from the main
switch.
WARNING
EWA10312
Since the engine and exhaust
system can become very hot,
park in a place where pedestri-
ans or children are not likely to
touch them and be burned.
Do not park on a slope or on soft
ground, otherwise the vehicle
may overturn, increasing the
risk of a fuel leak and fire.
Do not park near grass or other
flammable materials which
might catch fire.

by the frame sub-members.

3. Confirm that the vehicle is in a sta-
ble and level position before start-
ing any maintenance.
EAU25872
TroubleshootingAlthough Yamaha motorcycles receive
a thorough inspection before shipment
from the factory, trouble may occur
during operation. Any problem in the
fuel, compression, or ignition systems,
for example, can cause poor starting
and loss of power.
The following troubleshooting charts
represent quick and easy procedures
for checking these vital systems your-
self. However, should your motorcycle
require any repair, take it to a Yamaha
dealer, whose skilled technicians have
the necessary tools, experience, and
know-how to service the motorcycle
properly.
Use only genuine Yamaha replace-
ment parts. Imitation parts may look
like Yamaha parts, but they are often
inferior, have a shorter service life and
can lead to expensive repair bills.
WARNING
EWA15142
When checking the fuel system, do
not smoke, and make sure there are
no open flames or sparks in the ar-
ea, including pilot lights from waterheaters or furnaces. Gasoline or
gasoline vapors can ignite or ex-
plode, causing severe injury or prop-
erty damage.
