8. If the chain drive oil is not between
the tip of the dipstick and the max-
imum level mark, add sufficient oil
of the recommended type to raise
it to the correct level.
9. Insert the dipstick into the oil filler
hole, and then tighten the oil filler
cap.
NOTICE
ECA15010
Make sure that no foreign mate-
rial enters the chain drive case.
Make sure that no oil gets on the
tire or wheel.
10. Check the chain drive case for oil
leakage. If leakage is found, checkfor the cause.
11. Install the panel.
EAU20070
Coolant
The coolant level should be checked
before each ride. In addition, the cool-
ant must be changed at the intervals
specified in the periodic maintenance
and lubrication chart.
EAU46331
To check the coolant level
1. Place the vehicle on the center-
stand.
TIP
The coolant level must be checked
on a cold engine since the level
varies with engine temperature.
Make sure that the vehicle is posi-
tioned straight up when checking
the coolant level. A slight tilt to the
side can result in a false reading.
2. Check the coolant level through
the check window.
TIP
The coolant should be between the
minimum and maximum level marks.
1. Maximum level mark
2. Tip of the chain drive oil dipstick

3. If the coolant is at or below the
minimum level mark, lift up the
right floorboard mat as shown.
4. Remove the coolant reservoir cov-er by removing the screw.
5. Open the coolant reservoir cap,
add coolant to the maximum level
mark, and then close the reservoir
cap.
WARNING! Remove only
the coolant reservoir cap. Never
attempt to remove the radiator
cap when the engine is
hot.
[EWA15161]
NOTICE:
If coolant is
not available, use distilled water
or soft tap water instead. Do not
use hard water or salt water
since it is harmful to the engine.
If water has been used instead
of coolant, replace it with cool-
ant as soon as possible, other-wise the cooling system will not
be protected against frost and
corrosion. If water has been
added to the coolant, have a
Yamaha dealer check the anti-
freeze content of the coolant as
soon as possible, otherwise the
effectiveness of the coolant will
be reduced.
[ECA10472]
6. Install the coolant reservoir cover
by installing the screw.
7. Place the right floorboard mat in
the original position.

9Engine overheating
WARNING
EWAT1040
Do not remove the radiator cap when the engine and radiator are hot. Scalding hot fluid and steam may be
blown out under pressure, which could cause serious injury. Be sure to wait until the engine has cooled.
Place a thick rag, like a towel, over the radiator cap, and then slowly rotate the cap counterclockwise to the de-
tent to allow any residual pressure to escape. When the hissing sound has stopped, press down on the cap
while turning it counterclockwise, and then remove the cap.
TIP
If coolant is not available, tap water can be temporarily used instead, provided that it is changed to the recommended coolant
as soon as possible.
Wait until the
engine has cooled.
Check the coolant level in the
reservoir and radiator.
The coolant level
is OK.The coolant level is low.
Check the cooling system
for leakage.
Have a Yamaha dealer checkand repair the cooling system.Add coolant. (See TIP.)
Start the engine. If the engine overheats again,
have a
Yamaha dealer check
and repair the cooling system.
There is
leakage.
There is
no leakage.
