Adjusting the front fork
WARNING
EWA14671
Always adjust the spring preload on
both fork legs equally, otherwise
poor handling and loss of stabilitymay result.
Each front fork leg is equipped with a
spring preload adjusting bolt, the right
front fork leg is equipped with a re-
bound damping force adjusting screw
and the left front fork leg with a com-
pression damping force adjusting
screw.NOTICE
ECA10102
To avoid damaging the mechanism,
do not attempt to turn beyond themaximum or minimum settings.
Spring preload
Turn the adjusting bolt in direction (a) to
increase the spring preload.
Turn the adjusting bolt in direction (b) to
decrease the spring preload. The spring preload setting is deter-
mined by measuring distance A, shown
in the illustration. The shorter distance
A is, the higher the spring preload; the
longer distance A is, the lower the
spring preload.

Rebound damping force
The rebound damping force is adjusted
on the right fork leg only.
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 direction
(b).
TIPBe sure to perform this adjustment onthe right fork leg.
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 specifications,
however such adjustments are in-
effective and may damage the
suspension.
Compression damping force
The compression damping force is ad-
justed on the left fork leg only.
Turn the adjusting screw in direction (a)
to increase the compression damping
force.
Turn the adjusting screw in direction (b)
to decrease the compression damping
force.
To set the compression damping force,
turn the adjuster in direction (a) until it
stops, and then count the clicks in di-
rection (b).
TIPBe sure to perform this adjustment onthe left fork leg.
Spring preload setting: Minimum (soft): Distance A = 19.0 mm (0.75 in)

lowing information before handling
the shock absorber assembly.
Do not tamper with or attempt to
open the cylinder assembly.
Do not subject the shock ab-
sorber assembly to an open
flame or other high heat source.
This may cause the unit to ex-
plode due to excessive gas
pressure.
Do not deform or damage the
cylinder in any way. Cylinder
damage will result in poor
damping performance.
Do not dispose of a damaged or
worn-out shock absorber as-
sembly yourself. Take the shock
absorber assembly to a Yamahadealer for any service.

SidestandThe sidestand is located on the left side
of the frame. Raise the sidestand or
lower it with your foot while holding the
vehicle upright.TIPThe built-in sidestand switch is part of
the ignition circuit cu
t-off system, which
cuts the ignition in certain situations.
(See the following section for an expla-
nation of the ignition circuit cut-off sys-tem.)
WARNING
EWA10242
The vehicle must not be ridden with
the sidestand down, or if the sides-
tand 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

Ignition circuit cut-off systemThis 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 sides-
tand be lowered while the transmission
is in gear.
Periodically check this system via the
following procedure.TIP
This check is most reliable if per-
formed with a warmed-up engine.
