Cleaning and l ubricating the
drive chainThe drive chain must be cleaned and
lubricated at the intervals specified in
the periodic maintenance and lubrica-
tion chart, otherwise it will quickly wear
out, especially when riding in dusty or
wet areas. Service the drive chain as
follows.NOTICE
ECA10584
The drive chain must be lubricated
after washing the motorcycle, ridingin the rain or riding in wet areas.
1. Clean the drive chain with a drive chain cleaner and a small soft
brush. NOTICE: To prevent dam-
aging the O-rings, do not clean
the drive chain with steam
cleaners, high-pressure wash-
ers or inappropriate sol-
vents.
[ECA11122]
2. Wipe the drive chain dry.
3. Thoroughly lubricate the drive chain with a special O-ring chain
lubricant. NOTICE: Do not use
engine oil or any other lubri- cants for the drive chain, as they
may contain substances that
could damage the O-rings.
[ECA11112]
EAU23098
Checking and lubricating the
cablesThe operation of all control cables and
the condition of the cables should be
checked before each ride, and the ca-
bles and cable ends should be lubricat-
ed if necessary. If a cable is damaged
or does not move smoothly, have a
Yamaha dealer check or replace it.
WARNING! Damage to the outer
housing of cables may result in in-
ternal rusting and cause interfer-
ence with cable movement. Replace
damaged cables as soon as possi-
ble to prevent unsafe condi-
tions.
[EWA10712]
Recommended lubricant:
Yamaha cable lubricant or other suit-
able cable lubricant

Before washing 1. Park the vehicle out of direct sun- light and allow it to cool. This will
help avoid water spots.
2. Make sure all caps, covers, electri- cal couplers and connectors are
tightly installed.
3. Cover the muffler end with a plas- tic bag and a strong rubber band.
4. Pre-soak stubborn stains like in- sects or bird droppings with a wet
towel for a few minutes.
5. Remove road grime and oil stains with a quality degreasing agent
and a plastic-bristle brush or
sponge. NOTICE: Do not use de-
greasing agent on areas requir-
ing lubrication such as seals,
gaskets, and wheel axles. Fol-
low product instructions.
[ECA26290]
Washing 1. Rinse off any degreaser and spray down the vehicle with a garden
hose. Use only enough pressure to do the job. Avoid spraying water
directly into the muffler, instrument
panel, air inlet, or other inner areas
such as underseat storage com-
partments.
2. Wash the vehicle with a quality au- tomotive-type detergent mixed
with cool water and a soft, clean
towel or sponge. Use an old tooth-
brush or plastic-bristle brush for
hard-to-reach places. NOTICE:
Use cold water if the vehicle has
been exposed to salt. Warm wa-
ter will increase salt’s corrosive
properties.
[ECA26301]
3. For windshield-equipped vehicles: Clean the windshield with a soft
towel or sponge dampened with
water and a pH neutral detergent.
If necessary, use a high-quality
windshield cleaner or polish for
motorcycles. NOTICE: Never use
any strong chemicals to clean
the windshield. Additionally,
some cleaning compounds for
plastic may scratch the wind-
shield, so be sure to test all
cleaning products before gener-
al application.
[ECA26310]
4. Rinse off thoroughly with clean wa- ter. Be sure to remove all deter-
gent residues, as they can be
harmful to plastic parts.
After washing 1. Dry the vehicle with a chamois or
absorbent towel, preferably micro-
fiber terrycloth.
2. For drive chain-equipped models: Dry and then lubricate the drive
chain to prevent rust.
3. Use a chrome polish to shine chrome, aluminum, and stainless
steel parts. Often the thermally in-
duced discoloring of stainless steel
exhaust systems can be removed
through polishing.
4. Apply a corrosion protection spray on all metal parts including chrome
or nickel-plated surfaces.
WARNING! Do not apply
silicone or oil spray to seats,
hand grips, rubber foot pegs or
tire treads. Otherwise these
parts will become slippery,
which could cause loss of con-
trol. Thoroughly clean the sur-
faces of these parts before
