Coolant
The coolant level should be checked before each
ride.
Checking the coolant level
1. Place the vehicle on a level surface.
2. Open the hood. (See pages 8-17–8-19 for
hood opening and closing procedures.)
3. Check the coolant level in the coolant reser-
voir when the engine is cold as the coolant
level varies with engine temperature.NOTE:_ The coolant should be between the minimum and
maximum level marks. _4. If the coolant is at or below the minimum level
mark, remove the reservoir cap, add coolant
to the maximum level mark, install the reser-
voir cap, and then close the hood.
Coolant reservoir capacity

CAUTION:_ Mix antifreeze with distilled water only. Howev-
er, if distilled water is not available, soft water
may be used for refilling._Changing the coolant
The coolant must be changed by a Yamaha dealer
at the intervals specified in the periodic mainte-
nance and lubrication chart.NOTE:_

Adding water instead of coolant lowers the an-
tifreeze content of the coolant. If water is used
instead of coolant, have a Yamaha dealer
check the antifreeze content of the coolant as
soon as possible.


The radiator fan is automatically switched on or
off according to the coolant temperature in the
radiator.
_If your vehicle overheats, see page 8-140 for de-
tails.
