NOTE:

The engine oil should be between the
minimum and maximum level marks.
CAUTION:

ECA10010
Do not operate the vehicle until you
know that the engine oil level is suf-
ficient.
WARNING

EWA10360
Never remove the engine oil tank
cap after high-speed operation, oth-
erwise hot engine oil could spout
out and cause damage or injury. Al-
ways let the engine oil cool down
sufficiently before removing the oil
tank cap.
4. If the engine oil is below the mini-
mum level mark, add sufficient oil
of the recommended type to raise
it to the correct level.
5. Install the oil filler cap.
NOTE:


The engine oil tank is located be-
hind the cylinders.

The engine oil should be between
the minimum and maximum level
marks.
To change the engine oil (with or
without oil filter element replace-
ment)
1. Start the engine, warm it up for
several minutes, and then turn it
off.
2. Place an oil pan under the engine
to collect the used oil.
3. Remove the engine oil filler cap
and drain bolts to drain the oil from
the crankcase.

Checking the brake fluid level
Front brake
Rear brake
Insufficient brake fluid may allow air to
enter the brake system, possibly caus-ing it to become ineffective.
Before riding, check that the brake fluid
is above the minimum level mark and
replenish if necessary. A low brake fluid
level may indicate worn brake pads
and/or brake system leakage. If the
brake fluid level is low, be sure to check
the brake pads for wear and the brake
system for leakage.
NOTE:

The rear brake fluid reservoir is located
under the seat. (See page 3-14.)
Observe these precautions:

When checking the fluid level,
make sure that the top of the brake
fluid reservoir is level.

Use only the recommended quality
brake fluid, otherwise the rubber
seals may deteriorate, causing
leakage and poor braking perfor-
mance.

Refill with the same type of brake
fluid. Mixing fluids may result in a
harmful chemical reaction andlead to poor braking performance.

Be careful that water or dust does
not enter the brake fluid reservoir
when refilling. Water will signifi-
cantly lower the boiling point of the
fluid and may result in vapor lock,
and dirt may clog the ABS hydrau-
lic unit valves.

Brake fluid may deteriorate paint-
ed surfaces or plastic parts. Al-
ways clean up spilled fluid
immediately.

As the brake pads wear, it is nor-
mal for the brake fluid level to grad-
ually go down. However, if the
brake fluid level goes down sud-
denly, have a Yamaha dealer
check the cause.

WARNING

EWA10790
Headlight bulbs get very hot. There-
fore, keep flammable products away
from a lit headlight bulb, and do not
touch the bulb until it has cooled
down.
3. Place a new bulb into position, and
then secure it with the bulb holder.
CAUTION:

ECA10650
Take care not to damage the follow-
ing parts:

Headlight bulb
Do not touch the glass part of the
headlight bulb to keep it free from
oil, otherwise the transparency ofthe glass, the luminosity of the bulb,
and the bulb life will be adversely af-
fected. Thoroughly clean off any dirt
and fingerprints on the headlight
bulb using a cloth moistened with al-
cohol or thinner.

Headlight lens

Do not affix any type of tinted
film or stickers to the head-
light lens.

Do not use a headlight bulb of
a wattage higher than speci-
fied.
4. Install the bulb cover, and then
connect the coupler.
5. Have a Yamaha dealer adjust the
headlight beam if necessary.
EAU24080
Replacing the tail/brake light

clockwise.
3. Remove the defective bulb by
pushing it in and turning it counter-
clockwise.
4. Insert a new bulb into the socket,
push it in, and then turn it clock-
wise until it stops.
