NOTE:
Pre-operation checks should be made each time the motorcycle is used. Such an inspection
can be thoroughly accomplished in a very short time; and the added safety it assures is
more than worth the time involved.
w
If any item in the Pre-Operation Check is not working properly, have it inspected and re-
paired before operating the motorcycle.

Tires
To ensure maximum performance, long
service, and safe operation, note the fol-
lowing:
1. Tire air pressure
Always check and adjust the tire pres-
sure before operating the motorcycle.
EUU67500
w
Tire inflation pressure should be checked
and adjusted when the temperature of the
tire equals the ambient air temperature.
Tire inflation pressure must be adjusted
according to total weight of cargo, rider,
and passenger.

2. Tire inspection
Always check the tires before operat-
ing the motorcycle. If center tread
depth reaches the limit as shown, if
the tire has a nail or glass fragments
in it, or if the side wall is cracked, con-
tact a Yamaha dealer immediately and
have the tire replaced.
w
It is dangerous to ride with a worn-out
tire. When a tire tread begins to show
lines, have a Yamaha dealer replace the
tire immediately. Brakes, tires, and related
wheel parts replacement should be left to
a Yamaha Service Technician.
