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 an d 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 7-19
for tire specifications and for informa-
tion on servicing and replacing your
tires.
Transportin g 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.

YRC (Yamaha Ride Control)Yamaha Ride Control is a system that
incorporates numerous sensors and
controls to support an improved riding
experience. The vehicle senses and
can react to forces along the longitudi-
nal (front-to-back), lateral (left-to-right),
and vertical (up-and-down) axes. Lean
angle and G-force accelerations are
also detected. This information is pro-
cessed multiple times a second and
the related physical systems are auto-
matically adjusted as necessary. The
following functions represent individual
YRC items which can be turned on/off
or adjusted to suit various riders and
riding conditions. For setting details,
see pages 4-11 and 4-16.
WARNING
EWA18221
The Yamaha Ri de Control (YRC) sys-
tem is not a su bstitute for the use of
proper ri din g techniques or the ex-
pertise of the operator. This system
cannot prevent loss of control
caused b y ri der errors such as trav-
elin g faster than warranted b y roa d
an d traffic con ditions, inclu din g loss of traction
due to excessive spee d
when enterin g turns, when acceler-
atin g har d at a sharp lean an gle, or
while brakin g, an d it cannot prevent
front wheel slip or front wheel lift. As
with any motorcycle, always ri de
within in your limits, be aware of sur-
roun din g con ditions, an d ri de ap-
propriately for those con ditions.
Become thorou ghly familiar with the
way the motorcycle han dles with
various YRC settin gs before at-
temptin g more a dvance d maneu-
vers.
PWR
The power delivery mode system con-
sists of four different control maps
which regulate throttle valve opening in
relation to the degree of throttle grip
operation, thus providing you with a
selection of modes to fit your prefer-
ences and the riding environment. TCS
The traction control system helps
maintain traction when accelerating. If
sensors detect that the rear wheel is
starting to slip (uncontrolled spinning),
the traction control system assists by
regulating engine power as needed un-
til traction is restored. The traction con-
trol system indicator/warning light
flashes to let the rider know that trac-
tion control has engaged.

YRC items
MODE/PWR/TCS/SCS/EBM
The current MODE (YRC mode) and its
related PWR, TCS, SCS, and EBM set-
tings are shown here.
The individual settings for YRC items
PWR, TCS, SCS, LCS, QSS, LIF, EBM,
and BC can be organized into four
groups and set independently for each
group. These groups of settings are the
YRC modes MODE-A, MODE-B,
MODE-C, and MODE-D. Use the mode

TIPThe YRC modes come preset from the
factory for different riding conditions.
When using the factory presets, the
suggested YRC modes are as follows.
MODE-A: suitable for track riding
MODE-B: softer track-riding setting
MODE-C: suitable for road use
