Cast wheelsTo maximize the performance, durabil-
ity, and safe operation of your vehicle,
note the following points regarding the
specified wheels.
The wheel rims should be checked
for cracks, bends, warpage or oth-
er damage before each ride. If any
damage is found, have a Yamaha
dealer replace the wheel. Do not
attempt even the smallest repair to
the wheel. A deformed or cracked
wheel must be replaced.

The wheel should be balanced
whenever either the tire or wheel
has been changed or replaced. An
unbalanced wheel can result in
poor performance, adverse han-
dling characteristics, and a short-
ened tire life.

After repairing or replacing the
front tire, tighten the valve stem nut
and locknut to the specified
torques.

have a Yamaha dealer inspect the

WARNING
EWA14212
A soft or spongy feeling in the brake
lever can indicate the presence of air
in the hydraulic system. If there is air
in the hydraulic system, have a
Yamaha dealer bleed the system be-
fore operating the vehicle. Air in the
hydraulic system will diminish the
braking performance, which may re-
sult in loss of control and an acci-dent.
EAU53032
Adjusting the rear brake lock
cableRear brake lock cable adjustment may
be required if the rear brake lock lever
does not hold properly. When the rear
brake lock lever is not in use, the rear
brake lock cable length should mea-
sure 43–45 mm (1.69–1.77 in) at the
rear brake caliper.
Periodically check the rear brake lock
cable length and, if necessary, adjust it
as follows.
To increase the rear brake lock cable
length, turn the adjusting nut at the rear
brake caliper in direction (a). To de- crease the rear brake lock cable length,
turn the adjusting nut in direction (b).
WARNING! If proper adjustment
cannot be obtained as described,
have a Yamaha dealer make this ad-
justment.
[EWA16151]
Check that the rear brake lock is re-
leased, and then make sure that the
rear wheel could rotate smoothly.

Checking the rear brake lockThe rear brake lock must be checked at
the intervals specified in the periodic
maintenance and lubrication chart. 1. Adjust the rear brake lock cable.
2. Apply the rear brake lock, and then try to push the vehicle to confirm
that the rear brake lock functions
properly.
3. The rear brake lock caliper is pro- vided with a wear indicator, which
allows you to check the rear brake
lock pads. To check the rear brake
lock pads, check the position of the
indicator when the rear brake lock
lever is applied. If the indicator has
passed the wear indicator groove,
have a Yamaha dealer check the
rear brake lock.
4. Make sure that there are no tears or cracks on the rubber boot.

may deteriorate, causing leak-
age.

Refill with the same type of
brake fluid. Adding a brake fluid
other than DOT 4 may result in a
harmful chemical reaction.

Be careful that water does not
enter the brake fluid reservoir
when refilling. Water will signifi-
cantly lower the boiling point of
the fluid and may result in vaporlock.
NOTICE
ECA17641
Brake fluid may damage painted sur-
faces or plastic parts. Always cleanup spilled fluid immediately.
As the brake pads wear, it is normal for
the brake fluid level to gradually go
down. A low brake fluid level may indi-
cate worn brake pads and/or brake sys-
tem leakage; therefore, be sure to
check the brake pads for wear and the
brake system for leakage. If the brake
fluid level goes down suddenly, have a
Yamaha dealer check the cause before
further riding.
EAU22733
Changing the brake fluidHave a Yamaha dealer change the
brake fluid at the intervals specified in
the periodic maintenance and lubrica-
tion chart. In addition, have the oil seals
of the master cylinders and calipers as
well as the brake hoses replaced at the
intervals listed below or whenever they
are damaged or leaking.
Oil seals: Replace every two
years.

Brake hoses: Replace every four
years.

Drive belt slackThe drive belt slack should be checked
and adjusted by a Yamaha dealer at
the intervals specified in the periodic
maintenance and lubrication chart.


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 capwhile turning it counterclockwise, and then remove the cap.
TIPIf coolant is not available, tap water can be temporarily us
ed instead, provided that it is changed to the recommended coolantas 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.

Emergency modeWhen the smart key is lost, damaged,
or its battery has discharged, the vehi-
cle can still be turned on and the engine
started. You will need a mechanical key
and the smart key system identification
number. (See page 3-3.) To operate
the vehicle in emergency mode, carry
out the following steps.TIPEmergency mode operation will be
cancelled if the respective steps are not
carried out within the time set for each
operation or if the “OFF/LOCK” switchis pushed. 1. Stop the vehicle in a safe place.
2. Unlock the seat by inserting the mechanical key into the lock inside
the front storage compartment and
turn it clockwise. 3. Open the seat and check that the
trunk light comes on.
4. Push the “ON/ ” switch once.
5. Without completely shutting the seat, raise and lower it three times
within 10 seconds.
TIPUse the rear storage compartment light
as a guide when raising and loweringthe seat.

is done by counting the number of
flashes of the smart key system in-
dicator light.
For example, if the identification
number is 123456:
Push and hold the “SEAT OPEN/ ” switch.

The smart key system indicator
light will start to flash.

 Release the “SEAT OPEN/ ”
switch after the smart key system
indicator light flashes twice.

The second digit has been set as
“2”.

Repeat the above procedure until
all digits of the
identification num-
ber have been set. The smart key
system indicator light will flash for
10 seconds if the correct identifica-
tion number was entered.
TIPEmergency mode will be terminated
when either one of the following situa-
tions apply. In this case, start over
again from step 4.
When there are no “SEAT OPEN/ ” switch operations for 10 sec-
onds during the identification num-
ber input process.

When the smart key system indi- cator light is allowed to flash 10 or
more times.
8. Press the “ON/ ” switch while the smart key system indicator light is
flashing to turn on the power to the
vehicle. The engine can now be
started.
TIP
If the identification number is not
correctly entered, the smart key
system indicator light will flash rap-
idly for 3 seconds and emergency
mode is terminated. In this case,
start over again from step 4.
