1Aftermarket Tires and Rims
The tires and rims that came with your
motorcycle were designed to match
the performance capabilities and to
provide the best combination of han-
dling, braking, and comfort. Other
tires, rims, sizes, and combinations
may not be appropriate. Refer to page
6-17 for tire specifications and more in-
formation on replacing your tires.
Transporting the Motorcycle
Be sure to observe following instruc-
tions before transporting the motorcy-
cle in another vehicle.
Remove all loose items from the
motorcycle.
Check that the fuel cock (if
equipped) is in the “OFF” position
and that there are no fuel leaks.
Point the front wheel straight
ahead on the trailer or in the truck
bed, and choke it in a rail to pre-
vent movement.
Shift the transmission in gear (for
models with a manual transmis-
sion).Secure the motorcycle with tie-
downs or suitable straps that are
attached to solid parts of the mo-
torcycle, such as the frame or up-
per front fork triple clamp (and not,
for example, to rubber-mounted
handlebars or turn signals, or
parts that could break). Choose
the location for the straps carefully
so the straps will not rub against
painted surfaces during transport.
The suspension should be com-
pressed somewhat by the tie-
downs, if possible, so that the mo-
torcycle will not bounce exces-
sively during transport.

3Fuel meter
The fuel meter indicates the amount of
fuel in the fuel tank. The segments of
the fuel meter disappear from “F” (full)
towards “E” (empty) as the fuel level
decreases. When the last segment of
the fuel meter starts flashing, refuel as
soon as possible.
TIPIf a problem is detected in the electrical
circuit, the fuel meter segments will
flash repeatedly. If this occurs, have a
Yamaha dealer check the vehicle.
Eco indicator
This indicator comes on when the vehi-
cle is being operated in an environ-
mentally friendly, fuel-efficient manner.
The indicator goes off when the vehicle
is stopped.TIPConsider the following tips to reduce
fuel consumption:
Avoid high engine speeds during
acceleration.
Travel at a constant speed.
Select the transmission gear that
is appropriate for the vehicle
speed.

The transmission gear display shows
the selected gear. The neutral position
is indicated by “–”.

3The odometer shows the total distance
the vehicle has traveled. The standard
tripmeters show the distance traveled
since they were last reset. The count-
down tripmeter shows the remaining
distance to travel since it was last set.
The fuel reserve tripmeter shows the
distance traveled since the last seg-
ment of the fuel meter began flashing.
TIPThe odometer will lock at 999999
and cannot be reset.
The tripmeter will reset to 0 and
continue counting after 9999.9 is
reached.
The countdown tripmeter does
not automatically reset.Push the top set button to switch the
display in the following order:
ODO → TRIP 1 → TRIP 2 → TRIP CD
→ TRIP F → km/L or L/100 km or MPG
→ AVE_ _._ km/L or AVE_ _._ L/100 km
or AVE_ _._ MPG → _ _ °C → Air_ _ °C
→ ODO
TIPPush the bottom set button to
switch the display in the reverse
order.
The display changes to fuel re-
serve tripmeter “TRIP F” when the
last segment of the fuel meter
starts flashing.
To reset a tripmeter, select it by
pushing the top set button, and
while the digits flash, push the
bottom set button until it is reset.
If you do not reset the fuel reserve
tripmeter manually, it will reset au-
tomatically and disappear from
the display after refueling and
traveling 5 km (3 mi).Fuel reserve tripmeter
When the fuel level becomes low, the
last segment of the fuel meter will start
flashing. The fuel reserve tripmeter
“TRIP F” will automatically appear and
start counting the distance traveled
from that point. In this case, push the
top set button to switch the display in
the following order:TRIP F → km/L or L/100 km → AVE_
_._ km/L or AVE_ _._ L/100 km → _ _
°C → Air_ _ °C → ODO → TRIP 1 →
TRIP 2 → TRIP CD → TRIP F
For the UK:
TRIP F → km/L, L/100 km or MPG →
AVE_ _._ km/L, AVE_ _._ L/100 km or
AVE_ _._ MPG → _ _ °C → Air_ _ °C →
ODO → TRIP 1 → TRIP 2 → TRIP CD
→ TRIP F
TIPPush the bottom set button to
change the display in the reverse
order.

when you first start off. During this
time a clicking noise from the hy-
draulic unit may be audible, and if
the brake lever or brake pedal is
applied a vibration can be felt, but
this is not a malfunction.
The brake system will revert to a
conventional brake system in case
of ABS malfunction.
