stand. Warm up the engine for several
minutes.EUU03901NOTE:
Be sure the motorcycle is positioned
straight up when checking the oil level. A
slight tilt toward the side can result in false

clean rag and insert it in the filler hole
without screwing it in.

level gauge hole.EUU47700cC9Do not put in any chemical additives or
use oils with a grade of “CD (for Diesel

the clutch and additives could cause
clutch slippage.

crankcase.f. Start the engine and warm up for a
few minutes. While warming up check
for oil leakage. If oil leakage is found,
stop the engine immediately, and ask
a Yamaha dealer to check the cause.
