Fuel meter
The fuel meter indicates the amount of
fuel in the fuel tank. The display seg-
ments of the fuel meter disappear to-
wards “E” (Empty) as the fuel level
decreases. When the last segment and
fuel level warning indicator “ ” start
flashing, refuel as soon as possible.
TIPThis fuel meter is equipped with a self-
diagnosis system. If a problem is de-
tected in the electrical circuit, the fol-
lowing cycle is repeated until the
malfunction is corrected: fuel level seg-
ments and fuel level warning
indicator “ ” flash eight times, then go off for approximately 3 seconds. If this
occurs, have a Yamaha dealer check
the electrical circuit.
Eco in
dicator
This indicator comes on when the vehi-
cle is being operated in an environ-
mentally friendly, fuel-efficient manner.
The indicator goes off when the vehicle
is stopped.TIPConsider the following tips to reduce
fuel consumption: Avoid high engine speeds during
acceleration.
Travel at a constant speed.
Select the transmission gear that
is appropriate for the vehicle
speed.
Transmission gear display
This display shows the selected gear.
The neutral position is indicated by “ ”
and by the neutral indicator light.

de display
This display indicates which drive
mode has been selected: “STD”, “A” or
“B”. For more details on the modes
and on how to select them, refer to
pages 3-13 and 3-15. Multi-function
display
The multi-function display is equipped
with the following: an odometer
two tripmeters (which show the
distance traveled since they were
last set to zero)
a fuel reserve tripmeter (which
shows the distance traveled since
the left segment of the fuel meter
started flashing)
an instantaneous fuel consump-
tion display
an average fuel consumption dis-
play
a coolant temperature display
an air intake temperature display
a brightness control mode Push the “SELECT” button to switch
the display between the instantaneous
fuel consumption mode “km/L” or
“L/100 km”, average fuel consumption
mode “AVE_ _._ km/L” or “AVE_ _._
L/100 km”, coolant temperature mode
“°C”, air intake temperature mode “Air_
_ °C”, odometer mode “ODO”, and
tripmeter modes “TRIP 1” and “TRIP 2”
in the following order:
km/L or L/100 km
→ AVE_ _._ km/L or
AVE_ _._ L/100 km → °C → Air_ _ °C →
ODO → TRIP 1 → TRIP 2
For the UK only:
Push the “SELECT” button to switch
the display between the instantaneous
fuel consumption mode “km/L”,
“L/100 km” or “MPG”, average fuel
consumption mode “AVE_ _._ km/L”,
“AVE_ _._ L/100 km” or “AVE_ _._
MPG”, coolant temperature mode
“°C”, air intake temperature mode “Air_
_ °C”, odometer mode “ODO”, and
tripmeter modes “TRIP 1” and “TRIP 2”

TIPPush the “RESET” button to switch the
display in the reverse order.If the fuel level warning indicator “ ”
and left segment of the fuel meter start
flashing, the display automatically
changes to the fuel reserve tripmeter
mode “F-TRIP” and starts counting the
distance traveled from that point. In
that case, push the “SELECT” button
to switch the display between the vari-
ous tripmeter, odometer, instanta-
neous fuel consumption and average
fuel consumption modes in the follow-
ing order:
F-TRIP → km/L or L/100 km → AVE_
_._ km/L or AVE_ _._ L/100 km → °C →

ODO → TRIP 1 → TRIP 2 → F-TRIP
To reset a tripmeter, select it by push-
ing the “SELECT” button, and then
push the “RESET” button for at least
one second.
If you do not reset the fuel reserve trip-
meter manually, it resets itself auto-
matically and the display returns to the
prior mode after refueling and traveling
5 km (3 mi).
Instantaneous fuel consumption
d isplay The instantaneous fuel consumption
display can be set to either “km/L”,
“L/100 km” or “MPG” (for the UK only).
“km/L”: The distance that can be
traveled on 1.0 L of fuel under the
current riding conditions is shown.
“L/100 km”: The amount of fuel
necessary to travel 100 km under
the current riding conditions is
shown.
“MPG” (for the UK only): The dis-
tance that can be traveled on
1.0 Imp.gal of fuel under the cur-
rent riding conditions is shown.
To switch between the instantaneous
fuel consumption displays, push the
“SELECT” button for one second when
one of the displays is shown.
TIPIf traveling at speeds under 20 km/h
(12 mi/h), “_ _._” is displayed.

3Averag
e fuel consumption display
The average fuel consumption display
can be set to either “AVE_ _._ km/L”,
“AVE_ _._ L/100 km” or “AVE_ _._
MPG” (for the UK only).
This display shows the average fuel
consumption since it was last reset. “AVE_ _._ km/L”: The average dis-
tance that can be traveled on 1.0 L
of fuel is shown.
“AVE_ _._ L/100 km”: The average
amount of fuel necessary to travel
100 km is shown.
“AVE_ _._ MPG” (for the UK only):
The average distance that can be
traveled on 1.0 Imp.gal of fuel is
shown. To switch between the average fuel
consumption displays, push the “SE-
LECT” button for one second when
one of the displays is shown.
To reset the average fuel consumption
display, select it by pushing the “SE-
LECT” button, and then push the “RE-
SET” button for at least one second.
TIPAfter resetting an average fuel con-
sumption display, “_ _._” is shown for
that display until the vehicle has trav-
eled 1 km (0.6 mi).Coolant temperature
display This display shows the coolant tem-
perature from 40 °C to 116 °C in 1 °C
increments.
If the message “HI” flashes, stop the
vehicle, then stop the engine, and let
the engine cool. (See page 6-45.)
TIP
When the coolant temperature is
below 40 °C, “LO” will be dis-
played.
The coolant temperature varies
with changes in the weather and
engine load.Air intake temperature display

EAU58280
Recommended shift points
The recommended shift points during
acceleration and deceleration are
shown in the table below.
EAU16811
Tips for re ducin g fuel con-
sumptionFuel consumption depends largely on
your riding style. Consider the follow-
ing tips to reduce fuel consumption:
Shift up swiftly, and avoid high en-
gine speeds during acceleration.
Do not rev the engine while shift-
ing down, and avoid high engine
speeds with no load on the en-
gine.
Turn the engine off instead of let-
ting it idle for an extended length
of time (e.g., in traffic jams, at traf-
fic lights or at railroad crossings).
EAU16842
Engine break-inThere is never a more important period
in the life of your engine than the period
between 0 and 1600 km (1000 mi). For
this reason, you should read the fol-
lowing material carefully.
Since the engine is brand new, do not
put an excessive load on it for the first
1600 km (1000 mi). The various parts in
the engine wear and polish themselves
to the correct operating clearances.
During this period, prolonged full-throt-
tle operation or any condition that
might result in engine overheating
must be avoided.
EAU17094
0–1000 km (0–600 mi)
Avoid prolonged operation above 5600
r/min. NOTICE: After 1000 km (600
mi) of operation, the en gine oil must
b e chan ged an d the oil filter car-
tri dge or element replace d.
[ECA10303]
1000–1600 km (600–1000 mi)
Avoid prolonged operation above 6800
r/min.

2nd → 3rd: 30 km/h (19 mi/h)
3rd → 4th: 40 km/h (25 mi/h)
4th → 5th: 50 km/h (31 mi/h)
