NOTE:
The air filter needs more frequent service if you are riding in unusually wet or dusty areas.
Hydraulic brake service
• Regularly check and, if necessary, correct the brake fluid level.
• Every two years change the brake fluid.
• Replace the brake hoses every four years and if cracked or damaged.

Engine oil
The engine oil level should be chec-
ked before each ride. In addition, the
oil must be changed at the intervals
specified in the periodic maintenance
and lubrication chart
and when the oil change indicator
display comes on.
To check the engine oil level
1. Place the scooter on the centers-
tand.
NOTE:
Make sure that the scooter is positio-
ned straight up when checking the oil
level. 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.
1. Engine oil filler cap
3. Wait a few minutes until the oil
settles, remove the oil filler cap,
wipe the dipstick clean, insert it
back into the oil filler hole (wit-
hout screwing it in), and then
remove it again to check the oil
level.
1. Engine oil filler cap
2. Dipstick
3. Maximum level mark
4. Minimum level mark
NOTE:
The engine oil should be between the
minimum and maximum level marks.
4. If the engine oil is below the mini-
mum level mark, add sufficient oil
of the recommended type to rai-
se it to the correct level.
5. Insert the dipstick into the oil filler
hole, and then tighten the oil filler
cap.
To change the engine oil
1. Start the engine, warm it up for
several minutes, and then turn it
off.

recommended final transmission
oil, and then install and tighten
the oil filler cap.

WARNING
Make sure that no foreign
material enters the final trans-
mission case.
Make sure that no oil gets on
the tire or wheel.
7. Check the final transmission case
for oil leakage. If oil is leaking,
check for the cause.
EAU20070
Coolant
The coolant level should be checked
before each ride. In addition, the coo-
lant must be changed at the intervals
specified in the periodic maintenance
and lubrication chart.
EAU20101
To check the coolant level
1. Place the vehicle on the centers-
tand.
NOTE:
The coolant level must be chec-
ked on a cold engine since the
level varies with engine tempera-
ture.
Make sure that the vehicle is
positioned straight up when
checking the coolant level. A
slight tilt to the side can result in
a false reading.
1. Maximum level mark
2. Minimum level mark
2. Check the coolant level in the
coolant reservoir.
NOTE:
The coolant should be between the
minimum and maximum level marks.
Recommended final transmission
oil:
See page 8-1.
Oil quantity:
0.15 L (0.16 US qt) (0.88 Imp.qt)
Tightening torque:
Final transmission oil drain bolt:
22 Nm (2.2 m•kgf, 15.9 ft•lbf)

when refilling. Water will signifi-
cantly lower the boiling point of
the fluid and may result in vapor
lock.
Brake fluid may deteriorate pain-
ted surfaces or plastic parts.
Always clean up spilled fluid
immediately.
As the brake pads wear, it is nor-
mal for the brake fluid level to
gradually go down. However, if
the brake fluid level goes down
suddenly, have a Yamaha dealer
check the cause.
EAU22720
Changing the brake fluid
Have a Yamaha dealer change the
brake fluid at the intervals specified in
the NOTE after the periodic mainte-
nance and lubrication chart. In addi-
tion, have the oil seals of the brake
master cylinder and caliper as well as
the brake hose replaced at the inter-
vals listed below or whenever they are
damaged or leaking.
Oil seals: Replace every two
years.
Brake hose: Replace every four
years.
EAU23100
Checking and lubricating the
cables
The operation of all control cables
and the condition of the cables
should be checked before each ride,
and the cables and cable ends should
be lubricated if necessary. If a cable is
damaged or does not move smoothly,
have a Yamaha dealer check or repla-
ce it.
EWA10720

WARNING
Damage to the outer sheath may
interfere with proper cable opera-
tion and will cause the inner cable
to rust. Replace a damaged cable
as soon as possible to prevent
unsafe conditions.

Checking the front fork
The condition and operation of the
front fork must be checked as follows
at the intervals specified in the perio-
dic maintenance and lubrication
chart.
To check the condition
EWA10750
s s
WARNING
Securely support the motorcycle so
that there is no danger of it falling
over.
Check the inner tubes for scratches,
damage and excessive oil leakage.
To check the operation
1. Place the motorcycle on a level
surface and hold it in an upright
position.2. While applying the front brake,
push down hard on the handle-
bars several times to check if the
front fork compresses and
rebounds smoothly.
ECA10590
CAUTION:
If any damage is found or the front
fork does not operate smoothly,
have a Yamaha dealer check or
repair it.
EAU23280
Checking the steering
Worn or loose steering bearings may
cause danger. Therefore, the opera-
tion of the steering must be checked
as follows at the intervals specified in
the periodic maintenance and lubrica-
tion chart.
1. Place a stand under the engine to
raise the front wheel off the
ground.

WARNING
Securely support the motorcycle so
that there is no danger of it falling
over.
