Brake lever The brake lever is located on the right
side of the handlebar. To apply the front
brake, pull the lever toward the throttle
grip.
The brake lever is equipped with a
brake lever position adjusting dial. To
adjust the distance between the brake
lever and the throttle grip, turn the ad-
justing dial while holding the lever
pushed away from the throttle grip.
Make sure that the appropriate setting
on the adjusting dial is aligned with
the “ ” mark on the brake lever.
EAU39540
Brake pedal The brake pedal is on the right side of
the vehicle.
This model is equipped with a unified
brake system.
When pressing down on the brake ped-
al, the rear brake and a portion of the
front brake are applied. For full braking
performance, apply both the brake le-
ver and the brake pedal simultaneous-
ly.
EAU54530
ABS The Yamaha ABS (Anti-lock Brake
System) features a dual electronic con-
trol system, which acts on the front and
rear brakes independently.
Operate the brakes with ABS as you
would conventional brakes. If the ABS
is activated, a pulsating sensation may
be felt at the brake lever or brake pedal.
In this situation, continue to apply the
brakes and let the ABS work; do not
“pump” the brakes as this will reduce
braking effectiveness.
WARNING
EWA16050
Always keep a sufficient distance
from the vehicle ahead to match the
riding speed even with ABS.●
The ABS performs best with
long braking distances.
●
On certain surfaces, such as
rough or gravel roads, the brak-
ing distance may be longer with
the ABS than without.
The ABS is monitored by an ECU,
which will revert the system to conven-
tional braking if a malfunction occurs.

TIP●
The ABS performs a self-diagno-
sis test each time the vehicle first
starts off after the key is turned to
“ON” and the vehicle has traveled
at a speed of 10 km/h (6 mi/h) or
higher. During this test, a “clicking”
noise can be heard from under the
seat, and if the brake lever or
brake pedal is even slightly ap-
plied, a vibration can be felt at the
lever and pedal, but these do not
indicate a malfunction.
●
This ABS has a test mode which
allows the owner to experience the
pulsation at the brake lever or
brake pedal when the ABS is oper-
ating. However, special tools are
required, so please consult your
Yamaha dealer when performing
this test.
NOTICE
ECA16830
Keep any type of magnets (including
magnetic pick-up tools, magnetic
screwdrivers, etc.) away from the
front and rear wheel hubs; other-
wise, the magnetic rotors equippedin the wheel hubs may be damaged,
resulting in improper performance
of the ABS and the unified brake
system.
EAU54270
Traction control system The traction control system helps main-
tain traction when accelerating on slip-
pery surfaces, such as unpaved or wet
roads. If sensors detect that the rear
wheel is starting to slip (uncontrolled
spinning), the traction control system
assists by regulating engine power as
needed until traction is restored. The
“TCS” indicator/warning light flashes to
let the rider know that traction control
has engaged.TIPThe rider may also notice slight chang-
es in engine and exhaust sounds when
the traction control system is engaged.
WARNING
EWA15431
The traction control system is not a
substitute for riding appropriately
for the conditions. Traction control
cannot prevent loss of traction due
to excessive speed when entering
turns, when accelerating hard at a
sharp lean angle, or while braking,
and cannot prevent front wheel slip-
ping. As with any motorcycle, ap-

proach surfaces that may be
slippery with caution and avoid es-
pecially slippery surfaces.
When the key is turned to “ON”, the
traction control system automatically
turns on.
The traction control system can be
turned on or off manually only when the
key is in the “ON” position and the mo-
torcycle is stopped.TIPTurn the traction control system off to
help free the rear wheel if the motorcy-
cle gets stuck in mud, sand, or other
soft surfaces.NOTICE
ECA16800
Use only the specified tires. (See
page 6-19.) Using different sized
tires will prevent the traction control
system from controlling tire rotation
accurately.
Turning on/off the traction control
system
WARNING
EWA15440
Be sure to stop the vehicle before
making any setting changes to the
traction control system. Changing
settings while riding can distract the
operator and increase the risk of an
accident.To turn off the traction control system,
push the “TCS” button on the multi-
function meter unit for at least 2 sec-
onds. The “TCS” indicator/warning light
will come on.
To turn on the traction control system,
push the “TCS” button again. The
“TCS” indicator/warning light will go off.
Resetting
The traction control system will be dis-
abled in the following conditions:
●
The rear wheel is rotated with the
centerstand down and the key in
the “ON” position.
●
Either the front wheel or rear wheel
comes off the ground while riding.
●
Excessive rear wheel spinning.
If the traction control system has been
disabled, both the “TCS” indica-
tor/warning light and the engine trouble
warning light come on.

should go off and the system will be en-
abled. The engine trouble warning light
should go off after the motorcycle
reaches at least 20 km/h (12 mi/h). If
the “TCS” indicator/warning light and/or
engine trouble warning light still remain
on after resetting, the motorcycle may
still be ridden; however, have a
Yamaha dealer check the motorcycle as soon as possible.

Fuel Make sure there is sufficient gasoline in
the tank.
WARNING
EWA10881
Gasoline and gasoline vapors are
extremely flammable. To avoid fires
and explosions and to reduce the
risk of injury when refueling, follow
these instructions.1. Before refueling, turn off the en-gine and be sure that no one is sit-
ting on the vehicle. Never refuel
while smoking, or while in the vi-
cinity of sparks, open flames, or
other sources of ignition such as
the pilot lights of water heaters and
clothes dryers.
2. Do not overfill the fuel tank. When refueling, be sure to insert the
pump nozzle into the fuel tank filler
hole. Stop filling when the fuel
reaches the bottom of the filler
tube. Because fuel expands when
it heats up, heat from the engine or
the sun can cause fuel to spill out
of the fuel tank. 3. Wipe up any spilled fuel immedi-
ately. NOTICE: Immediately wipe
off spilled fuel with a clean, dry,
soft cloth, since fuel may deteri-
orate painted surfaces or plastic
parts.
[ECA10071]
4. Be sure to securely close the fuel tank cap.
WARNING
EWA15151
Gasoline is poisonous and can
cause injury or death. Handle gaso-
line with care. Never siphon gaso-
line by mouth. If you should swallow
some gasoline or inhale a lot of gas-
oline vapor, or get some gasoline in
your eyes, see your doctor immedi- ately. If gasoline spills on your skin,
wash with soap and water. If gaso-
line spills on your clothing, change
your clothes.
