operator and may limit control
ability, therefore, such accesso-
ries are not recommended.
 Use caution when adding electri-
cal accessories. If electrical ac-
cessories exceed the capacity of
the motorcycle’s electrical sys-
tem, an electric failure could re-
sult, which could cause a
dangerous loss of lights or engine
power.
Aftermarket Tires an d Rims
The tires and rims that came with your
motorcycle were designed to match
the performance capabilities and to
provide the best combination of han-
dling, braking, and comfort. Other
tires, rims, sizes, and combinations
may not be appropriate. See page 6-20
for tire specifications and for informa-
tion on servicing and replacing your
tires.
Transportin g the Motorcycle
Be sure to observe following instruc-
tions before transporting the motorcy-
cle in another vehicle.  Remove all loose items from the
motorcycle.
 Check that the fuel cock (if
equipped) is in the off position and
that there are no fuel leaks.
 Shift the transmission into gear
(for models with a manual trans-
mission).
 Secure the motorcycle with tie-
downs or suitable straps that are
attached to solid parts of the mo-
torcycle, such as the frame or up-
per front fork triple clamp (and not,
for example, to rubber-mounted handlebars or turn signals, or
parts that could break). Choose
the location for the straps carefully
so the straps will not rub against
painted surfaces during transport.
 The suspension should be com-
pressed somewhat by the tie-
downs, if possible, so that the mo-
torcycle will not bounce exces-
sively during transport.

This warning light comes on if a prob-
lem is detected in the electronically ad-
justable suspension system.
TIP
When the vehicle is turned on, the light
should come on for a few seconds and
then go off. If the light does not come
on, or if the light remains on, have a
Yamaha dealer check the vehicle.
EAU55431Shift down in dicator li ght “ ”
This indicator light flashes when the
transmission gear is too high for the
vehicle speed.
To avoid damaging the YCC-S clutch,
the shift down indicator light flashes
when it is necessary to downshift. If
this occurs, downshift until the indica-
tor light stops flashing.
EAU55442YCC-S system warnin g lig ht “ ”
If this warning light comes on while rid-
ing, the YCC-S system may not work
correctly. If this occurs:  It may be impossible to shift out of
the gear you are in.
 The clutch may stay engaged, so
a shuddering sensation may be
felt as you come to a stop.
Stop the vehicle when it is safe to do
so, and park it away from traffic. Have
a Yamaha dealer check the YCC-S
system.
TIP
In order to be able to move the vehicle
after it has stopped, if shifting is impos-
sible using the hand shift lever and shift
pedal, proceed as follows: Place the vehicle on the centerstand,
then while rotating the rear wheel, push
the shift pedal rod and shift pedal rod
pivot forward until the transmission is
in the neutral position.
The electrical circuit of the warning
light can be checked by turning the key
to “ON”. The warning light should
come on for a few seconds, and then
go off.
If the warning light does not come on
initially when the key is turned to “ON”,
or if the warning light remains on, have
a Yamaha dealer check the electrical
circuit.

Si destan d
The sidestand is located on the left
side of the frame. Raise the sidestand
or lower it with your foot while holding
the vehicle upright.
TIP
The built-in sidestand switch is
part of the ignition circuit cut-off
system, which cuts the ignition in
certain situations. (See the follow-
ing section for an explanation of
the ignition circuit cut-off system.)
 The sidestand switch is also part
of the YCC-S system. Shifting out
of neutral is impossible when the
sidestand is down.
WARNING
EWA10242
The vehicle must not be ri dden with
the si destan d d own, or if the si de-
stan d cannot b e properly move d up
(or does not stay up), otherwise the
si destan d coul d contact the g round
an d d istract the operator, resultin g
in a possib le loss of control.
Yamaha’s ig nition circuit cut-off
system has been desi gne d to assist
the operator in fulfillin g the respon-
si bility of raising the sidestan d b e-
fore startin g off. Therefore, check
this system re gularly an d have a
Yamaha dealer repair it if it does not
function properly.
EAU68773
I g nition circuit cut-off system
This system prevents engine starts un-
less the sidestand is up and the brakes
are applied. Also, it will stop the run-
ning engine should the sidestand be
lowered.
Periodically check the system via the
following procedure.
TIP
 This check is most reliable if per-
formed with a warmed-up engine.
 See pages 3-2 and 3-22 for switch
operation information.
