Coolant
The coolant level should be checked before each
ride.
Checking the coolant level
1. Park 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. 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, reinstall the res-
ervoir cap.
5. Close the hood.Coolant reservoir capacity
(up to the maximum level mark):
0.34 L (0.36 US qt, 0.30 Imp.qt)

15. Insert the projections on the air filter case
cover into the holders on the air filter case,
and then install the air filter case cover by
hooking the holders onto the cover.
16. Close the hood.
The air filter element should be cleaned every 20–
40 hours. It should be cleaned and lubricated
more often if the vehicle is operated in dusty areas.
Each time air filter element maintenance is per-
formed, check the air inlet to the air filter case for
obstructions. Check the air filter element rubber
joint to the throttle body and manifold fittings for an
airtight seal. Tighten all fittings securely to avoid
the possibility of unfiltered air entering the engine.NOTICENever operate the engine with the air filter ele-
ment removed. This will allow unfiltered air to
enter, causing rapid engine wear and possible
engine damage. Additionally, operation with-
out the air filter element will affect the fuel in-
jection system with subsequent poor
performance and possible engine overheating.

Engine overheating
Wait for the engine to cool before removing the radiator cap. WARNING! If the engine is not cool when
removing the radiator cap, hot fluid and steam could blow out under pressure and burn you. Place
a thick rag over the cap and remove the cap slowly to allow any remaining pressure to escape.
If it is difficult to get the recommended coolant, tap water can be used temporarily, provided that it is
changed to the recommended coolant as soon as possible.Wait until the
engine has cooled.
Check the coolant level in the
coolant reservoir and/or radiator.
Level is OK.Level is low, check the
cooling system for leakage.
No
leakage.Leakage.
Ask a Yamaha dealer to inspect
and repair the cooling system.Add coolant. (See the text below.)
Restart the engine. If the engine overheats again, ask a
Yamaha dealer to inspect and/or repair the cooling system.
