Multi-function meter unit
The multi-function meter unit is
equipped with the following:
speedometer
tachometer
clock
fuel meter
eco indicator
transmission gear display
multi-function display
WARNING
EWA12423
Be sure to stop the vehicle before
making any setting changes to the
multi-function meter unit. Changing
settings while riding can distract the
operator and increase the risk of an
accident.
TIP
Except when accessing the
brightness control mode or when
displaying the clock, the key must
be turned to “ON” before you can
use the left and right set buttons to
adjust the multi-function meter.
For the UK: To switch between ki-
lometers and miles, press the left
set button for three seconds.
Speedometer
The speedometer shows the vehicle’s
traveling speed.

NOTICE
ECA10032
Do not operate the engine in the ta-
chometer red zone.
Red zone: 10000 r/min and above
Clock
The clock uses a 12-hour time system.
When the main switch is not in the
“ON” position, the clock can be viewed
for 10 seconds by pushing the left set
button.
To set the clock
1. Turn the key to “ON”.
2. Push the left set button and right
set button together for two sec-
onds. The hour digits will start
flashing.
3. Use the right set button to set the
hours.
4. Push the left set button, and the
minute digits will start flashing.
5. Use the right set button to set the
minutes.
6. Push the left set button and then
release it to start the clock.Fuel 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.
TIP
The fuel meter is equipped with a self-
diagnosis function. If a problem is de-
tected in the fuel meter electrical cir-
cuit, the fuel meter will flash
repeatedly. If this occurs, have a
Yamaha dealer check the vehicle.

vehicle is being operated in an environ-
mentally friendly, fuel-efficient manner.
The indicator goes off when the vehicle
is stopped.
TIP
Consider 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.

Odometer and tripmeters
The odometer shows the total distance
traveled by the vehicle.
The tripmeters show the distance trav-
eled since they were last reset.
To reset a tripmeter, use the left set
button to display the tripmeter you
want to reset, and then push the right
set button for one second.
TIP
The odometer will lock at 999999.
The tripmeters will lock at 9999.9
but can be manually reset.
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 traveledfrom that point. In this case, push the
left 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 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 F
TIP
Push the right set button to
change the display in the reverse
order.
You can manually reset the fuel re-
serve tripmeter, or after refueling
and traveling 5 km (3 mi), it will re-
set automatically and disappear
from the display.
Instantaneous fuel consumption
This function calculates the fuel con-
sumption under current riding condi-
tions.
The instantaneous fuel consumption
can be set to either “km/L”, “L/100 km”
or “MPG” (for the UK).

necessary to travel 100 km under
the current riding conditions is
shown.
“MPG” (for the UK): The distance
that can be traveled on

rent riding conditions is shown.
To switch the instantaneous fuel con-
sumption settings, push the left set
button for one second.
TIP
If traveling at speeds under 20 km/h

Average fuel consumption
This function calculates the average
fuel consumption since it was last re-
set.
The average fuel consumption can be
set to either “AVE_ _._ km/L”, “AVE_
_._ L/100 km” or “AVE_ _._ MPG” (for
the UK).
“AVE_ _._ km/L”: The average dis-
tance that can be traveled on 1.0 L
of fuel is shown.“AVE_ _._ L/100 km”: The average
amount of fuel necessary to travel
100 km is shown.
“AVE_ _._ MPG” (for the UK): The
average distance that can be trav-
eled on 1.0 Imp.gal of fuel is
shown.
To switch the average fuel consump-
tion settings, push the left set button
for one second.
To reset the average fuel consumption,
push the right set button for at least
one second.
TIP
After resetting the average fuel con-

the vehicle has traveled 1 km (0.6 mi).
Coolant temperature
This shows the coolant temperature
from 40 °C to 116 °C in 1 °C incre-
ments.
If the message “HI” flashes, stop the
vehicle, then stop the engine, and let it
cool. (See page 6-40.)

ABS
The Yamaha ABS (Anti-lock Brake
System) features a dual electronic con-
trol system, which acts on the front and
rear brakes independently.
Operate the brakes with ABS as you
would conventional brakes. If the ABS
is activated, a pulsating sensation may
be felt at the brake lever or brake ped-
al. In this situation, continue to apply
the brakes and let the ABS work; do
not “pump” the brakes as this will re-
duce braking effectiveness.
WARNING
EWA16051
Always keep a sufficient distance
from the vehicle ahead to match the
riding speed even with ABS.
The ABS performs best with
long braking distances.
On certain surfaces, such as
rough or gravel roads, the brak-
ing distance may be longer with
the ABS than without.
The ABS is monitored by an ECU,
which will revert the system to conven-
tional braking if a malfunction occurs.
TIP
The ABS performs a self-diagno-
sis test each time the vehicle first
starts off after the key is turned to
“ON” and the vehicle has traveled
at a speed of 10 km/h (6 mi/h) or
higher. During this test, a “click-
ing” noise can be heard from the
hydraulic control unit, and if the
brake lever or brake pedal is even
slightly applied, a vibration can be
felt at the lever and pedal, but
these do not indicate a malfunc-
tion.This ABS has a test mode which
allows the owner to experience
the pulsation at the brake lever or
brake pedal when the ABS is op-
erating. However, special tools are
required, so please consult your
Yamaha dealer.
NOTICE
ECA20100
Be careful not to damage the wheel
sensor or wheel sensor rotor; other-
wise, improper performance of the
ABS will result.
