Information
display
There are 3 information displays. Push
the select switch “ / ” to change
the selected information display.
The following items are shown in the
information displays: odometer
two tripmeters
fuel reserve tripmeter
elapsed time
air temperature
coolant temperature
average fuel consumption
instantaneous fuel consumption
TIPYou can select which items are shown
in each information display. See Set-
ting mode on page 3-13.Odometer an d tripmeters
The odometer shows the total distance
traveled by the vehicle.
The tripmeters “TRIP-1” and “TRIP-2”
show the distance traveled since they
were last set.
To reset a tripmeter, use the select
switch to display the tripmeter you
want to reset. Then push the “RESET” button briefly so that the tripmeter
flashes, and then push the “RESET”
button again for two seconds.
TIP
The odometer will lock at 999999.
The tripmeters will reset and con-
tinue counting after 9999.9 is
reached.Fuel reserve tripmeter
When approximately 2.6 L (0.69 US
gal, 0.57 Imp.gal) of fuel remains in the
fuel tank, the last segment of the fuel
meter starts flashing. The display will
change to the fuel reserve tripmeter
mode “TRIP-F” and start counting the
distance traveled from that point.

switch the display in the following or-
der:
TRIP-F
→ Display–1 → Display–2 →
Display–3 → TRIP-F
After refueling, you can manually reset
the fuel reserve tripmeter immediately,
or allow it to reset automatically after
traveling 5 km (3 mi). When the fuel re-
serve tripmeter is reset, it will disap-
pear from the display.
Elapsed time
This timer shows the time that has
elapsed since the key was turned to
“ON”. The timer automatically resets
when the key is turned to “OFF”.
TIPThere are also “TIME–2” and “TIME–3”
elapsed time displays, but they cannot
be set to the information display. See
Setting mode on page 3-13 for more
information.Air temperature
This shows the air temperature from –9
°C to 93 °C in 1 °C increments. The
temperature displayed may vary from
the ambient temperature.TIP –9 °C will be displayed even if the
ambient temperature falls below
–9 °C.
The accuracy of the temperature
reading may be affected when rid-
ing slowly (under 20 km/h [13
mi/h]) or when stopped at traffic
signals, railroad crossings, etc.
Coolant temperature
This shows the temperature of the
coolant. The coolant temperature var-
ies with changes in the weather and
engine load.
If the message “Hi” flashes, stop the
vehicle then stop the engine and let it
cool. (See page 6-38.)TIPThe selected information display can-
not be switched while the message
“Hi” is flashing.

and maintenance procedures and schedules described in the Owner’s Manual.
WARNING
EWA11152
Failure to inspect or maintain the vehicle properly increases the possibility of an acci dent or equipment damag e.
Do not operate the vehicle if you fin d any pro blem. If a pro blem cannot be corrected b y the proce dures provi ded in
this manual, have the vehicle inspecte d b y a Yamaha dealer.Before using this vehicle, check the following points:
ITEM CHECKS PAGE
Fuel • Check fuel level in fuel tank.
• Refuel if necessary.
• Check fuel line for leakage.
• Check fuel tank overflow hose for obstructions, cracks or damage, and check
hose connection. 3-25, 3-27
En gine oil • Check oil level in engine.
• If necessary, add recommended oil to specified level.
• Check vehicle for oil leakage. 6-11
Coolant • Check coolant level in reservoir.
• If necessary, add recommended coolant to specified level.
• Check cooling system for leakage. 6-13
Front brake • Check operation.
• If soft or spongy, have Yamaha dealer bleed hydraulic system.
• Check brake pads for wear.
• Replace if necessary.
• Check fluid level in reservoir.
• If necessary, add specified brake fluid to specified level.
• Check hydraulic system for leakage. 6-20, 6-21

7. Install the engine oil drain bolt witha new gasket, and then tighten the
bolt to the specified torque.
8. Pour the specified amount of the recommended oil into the crank-
case.
TIPUsing a funnel is recommended.
9. After checking the engine oil fillercap O-ring, install the filler cap.TIPWipe off any spilled oil before starting
the engine.10. Start the engine and let it idle for several minutes while checking for
oil leaks. If any leakage is found,
immediately stop the engine and
check for the cause.NOTICE
ECA10402
If the oil level warnin g lig ht flickers
or remains on even if the oil level is
correct, immed iately turn the en gine
off an d have a Yamaha d ealer check
the vehicle.11. Turn the engine off, wait a few minutes until the oil settles, and
then check the oil level one last
time.
EAUS1203
CoolantThe coolant level should be checked
regularly. In addition, the coolant must
be changed at the intervals specified in
the periodic maintenance chart.TIPIf genuine Yamaha coolant is not avail-
able, use an ethylene glycol antifreeze
containing corrosion inhibitors for alu-
minum engines and mix with distilled
water at a 1:1 ratio.
EAU20097
To check the coolant level
Since the coolant level varies with en-
gine temperature, check when the en-
gine is cold.1. Park the vehicle on a level surface.

2. With the vehicle in an upright posi-
tion, look at the coolant level in the
reservoir.
3. If the coolant is at or below the minimum level mark, remove the
coolant reservoir cap. WARNING!
Remove only the coolant reser-
voir cap. Never attempt to re-
move the ra diator cap when the
en gine is hot.
[EWA15162]
4. Add coolant to the maximum level
mark. NOTICE: If coolant is not
availa ble, use distille d water or
soft tap water instea d. Do not
use har d water or salt water
since it is harmful to the en gine.
If water has been used instead
of coolant, replace it with cool-
ant as soon as possi ble, other-
wise the coolin g system will not
b e protecte d a gainst frost an d
corrosion. If water has b een
a dd ed to the coolant, have a
Yamaha dealer check the anti-
freeze content of the coolant as
soon as possi ble, otherwise the
effectiveness of the coolant will
b e red uced.
[ECA10473]
5. Install the coolant reservoir cap.
EAU33032
Chan gin g the coolant
The coolant must be changed at the in-
tervals specified in the periodic main-
tenance and lubrication chart. Have a
Yamaha dealer change the coolant.
WARNING! Never attempt to remove
the ra diator cap when the en gine is
hot.

WARNING
EWA10401
Do not remove the ra diator cap when the en gine an d ra diator are hot. Scal din g hot flui d an d steam may be
b lown out un der pressure, which coul d cause serious injury. Be sure to wait until the en gine has coole d.
After removin g the ra diator cap retainin g b olt, place a thick ra g, like a towel, over the ra diator cap, an d then
slowly rotate the cap counterclockwise to the detent to allow any resi dual pressure to escape. When the hiss-
in g soun d has stoppe d, press down on the cap while turnin g it counterclockwise, an d then remove the cap.TIPIf coolant is not available, tap water can be temporarily used instead, provided that it is changed to the recommended cool-
ant 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.
