cC8Be sure to use motor oils that do not con-
tain anti-friction modifiers. Passenger car
motor oils (often labeled “Energy Conserv-
ing”) contain anti-friction additives which
will cause clutch and/or starter clutch slip-
page, resulting in reduced component life
and poor engine performance.
8Be sure no foreign material enters the
crankcase.
Recommended oil: See page 10-2.

7. Start the engine and warm up for a few
minutes. While warming up, check for oil
leakage. If oil leakage is found, stop the
engine immediately, and check for the
cause.
8. Check the oil level.EBU00764*Cooling system
1. Check the coolant level in the coolant
reservoir when the engine is cold as the
coolant level will vary with engine temper-
ature. The coolant level should be
between the maximum and minimum
marks.

6. Inspect the element. If damaged, replace
it.
7. Apply SAE10W30 motor oil to the element.

3. Refill with the same type of brake fluid.
Mixing fluids may result in a harmful chem-
ical reaction and lead to poor brake perfor-
mance.
4. Be careful that water does not enter the
master cylinder when refilling. Water will
significantly lower the boiling point of the
fluid and may result in vapor lock.
5. Brake fluid may deteriorate painted sur-
faces or plastic parts. Always clean up
spilled fluid immediately.
6. Have a Yamaha dealer check the cause if
the brake fluid level goes down.

EBU00570Cable inspection and lubricationwInspect cables frequently and replace if dam-
aged. Corrosion can result when the outer
covering of control cables becomes dam-
aged. Cables can also become frayed or
kinked. Operation of controls could be
restricted, which could cause an accident or
injury.Lubricate the inner cables and the cable ends. If
the cables do not operate smoothly, ask a
Yamaha dealer to replace them.
Recommended lubricant:
Engine oil

EBU00529B. STORAGE
Long term storage (60 days or more) of your
machine will require some preventive proce-
dures to guard against deterioration. After thor-
oughly cleaning the machine, prepare for stor-
age as follows:
1. Drain the fuel tank, fuel lines and carbure-
tor float bowls.
2. Remove the spark plugs, pour about one
tablespoon of SAE 10W30 or 20W40
motor oil in the spark plug holes and rein-
stall the spark plugs. Ground the spark
plug wires and turn the engine over several
times to coat the cylinder walls with oil.
3. Clean the drive chain thoroughly and lubri-
cate it. (See page 8-95 for details.)
Reinstall the chain or store it in a plastic
bag tied to frame for safekeeping.
4. Lubricate all control cables.

5. Block up the frame to raise all wheels off
the ground.
6. Tie a plastic bag over the exhaust pipe out-
let to prevent moisture from entering.
7. If storing in a humid or salt-air atmosphere,
coat all exposed metal surfaces with a light
film of oil. Do not apply oil to any rubber
parts or the seat cover.NOTE:
Make any necessary repairs before storing the
machine.
