leakage is found, have a Yamaha deal-
er check and repair the vehicle. In ad-
dition, the final gear oil level must be
checked and the oil changed as fol-

Coolant
The coolant level should be checked
before each ride. In addition, the cool-
ant must be changed at the intervals
specified in the periodic maintenance
and lubrication chart.
EAU54163To check the coolant level
1. Place the vehicle on the center- stand.
TIP
The coolant level must be
checked on a cold engine since
the level varies with engine tem-
perature.
 Make sure that the vehicle is posi-
tioned straight up when checking
the coolant level. A slight tilt to the
side can result in a false reading.
2. Remove the left cowling vent pan-
el. (See page 3-38.)
3. Check the coolant level in the coolant reservoir.
TIP
The coolant should be between the mi-
nimum and maximum level marks.
4. If the coolant is at or below the mi-nimum level mark, remove the
coolant reservoir cap. WARNING!
Remove only the coolant reser-
voir cap. Never attempt to re-
move the ra diator cap when the
en gine is hot.
[EWA15162]
5. Add coolant or distilled water to
raise the coolant to the maximum
level mark, and install the coolant
reservoir cap. NOTICE: If coolant
is not availab le, use distille d wa-
ter or soft tap water instea d. Do
not use har d water or salt water
since it is harmful to the en gine.
If water has been used instead
of coolant, replace it with cool-
ant as soon as possi ble, other-
wise the coolin g system will not
b e protecte d a gainst frost an d
corrosion. If water has b een
a dde d to the coolant, have a
Yamaha dealer check the anti-
freeze content of the coolant as
soon as possi ble, otherwise the
effectiveness of the coolant will
b e red uced.
