Engine oil and oil strainerThe engine oil level should be
checked before each ride. In addition,
the oil must be changed and the oil
strainer cleaned at the intervals speci-
fi ed in the periodic maintenance and
lubrication chart. The engine oil must
also be changed at the initial 1000 km
(600 mi) and when the oil change indi-
cator fl ashes. The oil change tripmeter
must be reset after the initial 1000 km
(600 mi). (See page 3-3 for reset pro-
cedures.)
To check the engine oil level
1. Place the vehicle on the center-
stand. A slight tilt to the side can
result in a false reading.
2. Start the engine, warm it up for
several minutes, and then turn it
off.
3. Wait a few minutes until the oil
settles, remove the oil fi ller cap,
wipe the dipstick clean, insert it
back into the oil fi ller hole (without
screwing it in), and then remove it
again to check the oil level.
TIPThe engine oil should be between the
minimum and maximum level marks.ZAUM00**

1. Maximum level mark
2. Minimum level mark4. If the engine oil is below the mini-
mum level mark, add suffi cient oil
of the recommended type to raise
it to the correct level.
5. Insert the dipstick into the oil fi ller
hole, and then tighten the oil fi ller
cap.
To change the engine oil and clean
the oil strainer
1. Start the engine, warm it up for
several minutes, and then turn it off.
2. Place an oil pan under the engine
to collect the used oil.
3. Remove the engine oil fi ller cap
and drain bolts to drain the oil
from the crankcase.
NOTICE:

When removing the engine oil
drain bolt, the O-ring, spring,
and oil strainer will fall out.
Take care not to lose these
parts.

PERIODIC MAINTENANCE AND ADJUSTMENT
Observe these precautions:● When checking the fl uid level,
make sure that the top of the
master cylinder is level by turning
the handlebars.● Use only the recommended qual-
ity brake fl uid, otherwise the
rubber seals may deteriorate,
causing leakage and poor braking
performance.Recommended brake uid:
DOT 4● Refi ll with the same type of brake
fl uid. Mixing fl uids may result in
a harmful chemical reaction and
lead to poor braking performance.● Be careful that water does not en-
ter the master cylinder when refi ll-
ing. Water will signifi cantly lower
the boiling point of the fl uid and
may result in vapor lock.● Brake fl uid may deteriorate
painted surfaces or plastic parts.
Always clean up spilled fl uid im-
mediately.● As the brake pads wear, it is normal for the brake fl uid level to
gradually go down. However, if
the brake fl uid level goes down
suddenly, have a Yamaha dealer
check the cause.
EAU22721
Changing the brake uidHave a Yamaha dealer change the
brake fl uid at the intervals specifi ed in
the TIP after the periodic maintenance
and lubrication chart. In addition, have
the oil seals of the brake master cyl-
inder and caliper as well as the brake
hose replaced at the intervals listed
below or whenever they are damaged
or leaking.● Oil seals: Replace every two
years.● Brake hose: Replace every four
years.

ing parts:●
Headlight bulb
Do not touch the glass part of the
headlight bulb to keep it free from
oil, otherwise the transparency

versely affected. Thoroughly clean
off any dirt and ngerprints on the
headlight bulb using a cloth moist-
ened with alcohol or thinner.
