speed.
NOTICE
ECA10032
Do not operate the en
gine in the ta-
chometer red zone.

Fuel meter
The fuel meter indicates the amount of
fuel in the fuel tank. The segments of
the fuel meter disappear from “F” (full)
towards “E” (empty) as the fuel level
decreases. When the last segment of
the fuel meter starts flashing, refuel as
soon as possible.TIPIf a problem is detected in the electrical
circuit, the fuel meter segments will
flash repeatedly. If this occurs, have a
Yamaha dealer check the vehicle.
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.

gear display
The transmission gear display shows
the selected gear. The neutral position
is indicated by “–”.
Clock
The clock uses a 12-hour time system. To set the clock
1. Set the multi-function display to
“ODO”
2. Push the “TRIP” switch until the hour digits start flashing.
3. Push the “TRIP” switch to set the hours.
4. Push the “INFO” switch and the minute digits will start flashing.
5. Push the “TRIP” switch to set the minutes.
6. Push the “INFO” switch to confirm settings and start the clock.TIPWhen setting the hours and minutes,
push the “TRIP” switch briefly to in-
crease the increment value one by one,
or push and hold the switch to increase
the increment value continuously.
Multi-function display
The multi-function display can show:  an odometer
 two tripmeters
 a fuel reserve tripmeter
 an instantaneous fuel consump-
tion display
 an average fuel consumption dis-
play
 a coolant temperature display
 an air temperature display
 a brightness control mode
The odometer shows the total distance
the vehicle has traveled. The standard
tripmeters show the distance traveled
since they were last reset. The fuel re-

3 serve tripmeter shows the distance
traveled since the last segment of the
fuel meter began flashing.
TIP
The odometer will lock at 999999
and cannot be reset.
 The tripmeter will reset to 0 and
continue counting after 9999.9 is
reached.Push the “TRIP” switch briefly to
switch the display in the following or-
der:
ODO → TRIP 1 → TRIP 2 → TRIP F →
km/L or L/100 km or MPG → AVE_ _._
km/L or AVE_ _._ L/100 km or AVE_ _._
MPG → _ _ °C → Air_ _ °C → ODOTIP Push the “INFO” switch briefly to
switch the display in the reverse
order.
 The display changes to fuel re-
serve tripmeter “TRIP F” when the
last segment of the fuel meter
starts flashing. 
To reset a tripmeter, select it by
pushing the “TRIP” switch or the
“INFO” switch, and while the dig-
its are flashing, push the “INFO”
switch until it is reset.
 If you do not reset the fuel reserve
tripmeter manually, it will reset au-
tomatically and disappear from
the display after refueling and
traveling 5 km (3 mi).
Fuel reserve tripmeter
When the fuel level becomes low, the
last segment of the fuel meter will start
flashing. The fuel reserve tripmeter
“TRIP F” will automatically appear and
start counting the distance traveled
from that point. In this case, push the
“TRIP” switch to switch the display in
the following order:
TRIP F → km/L or L/100 km → AVE_
_._ km/L or AVE_ _._ L/100 km → _ _
°C → Air_ _ °C → ODO → TRIP 1 →
TRIP 2 → TRIP F For the UK:
TRIP F
→ MPG → AVE_ _._ MPG → _
_ °C → Air_ _ °C → ODO → TRIP 1 →
TRIP 2 → TRIP F
TIPPush the “INFO” switch to change
the display in the reverse order.
 You can manually reset the fuel re-
serve tripmeter, or after refueling
and traveling 5 km (3 mi) it will re-
set automatically and disappear
from the display.Instantaneous fuel consumption

sumption under current riding condi-
tions.1. Instantaneous fuel consumption display

The instantaneous fuel consumption
display can be set to either “km/L”,
“L/100 km” when using kilometers.
To switch the the fuel consumption
units, push the “TRIP” switch until the
measurement units change. When us-
ing miles, the fuel consumption unit is
“MPG”.
 “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”: The distance that can be
traveled on 1.0 Imp.gal of fuel un-
der the current riding conditions is
shown.
To switch the instantaneous fuel con-
sumption settings, push and hold
“TRIP” switch until the display chang-
es.
TIPIf traveling at speeds under 20 km/h
(12 mi/h), “_ _._” is displayed.
Avera ge fuel consumption
This display shows the average fuel
consumption since it was last reset.
The average fuel consumption can be
set to either “AVE_ _._ km/L”, “AVE_
_._ L/100 km” when using kilometers.
To switch the fuel consumption units,
when the display is steady, push the
“TRIP” switch until the measurement
units change. When using miles, the
fuel consumption is “AVE_ _._ MPG”.  “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”: The average dis-
tance that can be traveled on
1.0 Imp.gal of fuel is shown.
To reset the average fuel consumption,
select it and while the digits are flash-
ing push the “TRIP” switch until it is re-
set.
TIPAfter resetting the average fuel con-
sumption, “_ _._” will be shown until
the vehicle has traveled 1 km (0.6 mi).Coolant temperature
This display shows the coolant tem-
perature from 40 °C to 116 °C in 1 °C
increments.

WARNING
EWA17380

Improper brakin g can cause
loss of control or traction. Al-
ways use b oth brakes an d apply
them smoothly.
 Make sure that the motorcycle
and the en gine have sufficiently
slowe d b efore shiftin g to a low-
er gear. En gag in g a lower gear
when the vehicle or en gine
speed is too hi gh coul d make
the rear wheel lose traction or
the en gine to over-rev. This
coul d cause loss of control, an
acci dent an d injury. It coul d also
cause en gine or drive train dam-
a g e.
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).
EAU17214
Parkin gWhen parking, stop the engine, and
then remove the key from the main
switch.
WARNING
EWA10312
Since the en gine an d exhaust
system can become very hot,
park in a place where pe destri-
ans or chil dren are not likely to
touch them an d b e burne d.
 Do not park on a slope or on soft
groun d, otherwise the vehicle
may overturn, increasin g the
risk of a fuel leak an d fire.
 Do not park near grass or other
flammab le materials which
mi ght catch fire.
