brakes to stop the motorcycle.
3. Shift the transmission into the neu- tral position when the motorcycle
is almost completely stopped. The neutral indicator light should come
on.

recommended engine oil, and then
install and tighten the oil filler cap.
TIP
Be sure to wipe off spilled oil on any
parts after the engine and exhaust sys-
tem have cooled down.
NOTICE
ECA11621
In order to prevent clutch slip-
page (since the engine oil also
lubricates the clutch), do not
mix any chemical additives. Do
not use oils with a diesel speci-
fication of “CD” or oils of a high-
er quality than specified. In
addition, do not use oils labeled
“ENERGY CONSERVING II” or
higher.
Make sure that no foreign mate-
rial enters the crankcase.
13. Start the engine, and then let it idle for several minutes while checking
it for oil leakage. If oil is leaking, im-
mediately turn the engine off and
check for the cause.
14. Turn the engine off, and then check the oil level and correct it if necessary.
NOTICE
ECA11232
After changing the engine oil, make
sure to check the oil pressure as de-
scribed below.
Loosen the bleed bolt.
Start the engine and keep it
idling until oil flows out. If no oil
comes out after one minute,
turn the engine off immediately
so it will not seize. If this occurs,
have a Yamaha dealer repair the
vehicle.
After checking the oil pressure,
tighten the bleed bolt to the
specified torque.
Tightening torques:
Engine oil drain bolt (crankcase):
30 Nm (3.0 m·kgf, 22 ft·lbf)
Engine oil drain bolt (oil tank): 16 Nm (1.6 m·kgf, 12 ft·lbf)
Recommended engine oil: See page 8-1.
Oil quantity:
Oil change:2.00 L (2.11 US qt, 1.76 Imp.qt)
With oil filter removal:
2.10 L (2.22 US qt, 1.85 Imp.qt)

Adjusting the clutch lever free
play
Measure the clutch lever free play as
shown.
Periodically check the clutch lever free
play and, if necessary, adjust it as fol-
lows. 1. Slide the rubber cover back at the clutch lever.
2. Loosen the locknut.
3. To increase the clutch lever free play, turn the clutch lever free play
adjusting bolt in direction (a). To
decrease the clutch lever free play,
turn the adjusting bolt in direction
(b).
4. Tighten the locknut and then slide the rubber cover to its original po-
sition.
TIP
If the specified free play cannot be ob-
tained as described above or if the
clutch does not operate correctly, have
a Yamaha dealer check the internal
clutch mechanism.
