Safety information
EAU60750
Be a Responsible Owner
As the vehicle’s owner, you are re-
sponsible for the safe and proper oper-
ation of your vehicle.
This is a leaning multi-wheel vehicle.
The safe use and operation of this ve-
hicle is dependent upon the use of
proper riding techniques as well as the
expertise of the operator. Every opera-
tor should know the following require-
ments before riding this vehicle.
He or she should: Obtain thorough instructions from
a competent source on all aspects
of this vehicle’s operation.
Observe the warnings and mainte-
nance requirements in this Own-
er’s Manual.
Obtain qualified training in safe
and proper riding techniques.
Obtain professional technical ser-
vice as indicated in this Owner’s
Manual and/or when made neces-
sary by mechanical conditions.
Never operate a vehicle without
proper training or instruction. Take
a training course. Beginners
should receive training from a cer-
tified instructor. Contact a
Yamaha dealer to find out about the training courses nearest you.
Safe Ri din g
Perform the pre-operation checks
each time you use the vehicle to make
sure it is in safe operating condition.
Failure to inspect or maintain the vehi-
cle properly increases the possibility of
an accident or equipment damage.
See page 6-1 for a list of pre-operation
checks. This vehicle is designed to carry
the operator and a passenger.
The failure of motorists to detect
and recognize scooters and mo-
torcycles in traffic is the predomi-
nating cause of automobile and
such smaller vehicle accidents.
Many accidents have been
caused by an automobile driver
who did not see the smaller vehi-
cle. Making yourself conspicuous appears to be very effective in re-
ducing the chance of this type of
accident.
Therefore:
• Wear a brightly colored jacket.
• Use extra caution when you are approaching and passing
through intersections, since in-
tersections are the most likely
places for such smaller vehicle
accidents to occur.
• Ride where other motorists can see you. Avoid riding in another
motorist’s blind spot.
• Never maintain a vehicle with- out proper knowledge. Contact
a Yamaha dealer to inform you
on basic vehicle maintenance.
Certain maintenance can only
be carried out by certified staff.
Many accidents involve inexperi-
enced operators. In fact, many op-
erators who have been involved in
accidents do not even have a cur-
rent driver’s license.
• Make sure that you are qualified and that you only lend your ve-
hicle to other qualified opera-
tors.UBX9E0E0.book Page 1 Monday, January 20, 2020 10:54 AM

EAU76861
NOTICE
ECA11401
Use only unlea ded g asoline. The use
of lead ed g asoline will cause severe
d amag e to internal en gine parts,
such as the valves an d piston rin gs,
as well as to the exhaust system.
TIP This mark identifies the recom-
mended fuel for this vehicle as
specified by European regulation
(EN228).
Check that gasoline nozzle has
the same identifier when fueling.Your Yamaha engine has been de-
signed to use regular unleaded gaso-
line with a research octane number of
95 or higher. If knocking (or pinging)
occurs, use a gasoline of a different
brand or premium unleaded fuel. Use
of unleaded fuel will extend spark plug
life and reduce maintenance costs. Gasohol
There are two types of gasohol: gaso-
hol containing ethanol and that con-
taining methanol. Gasohol containing
ethanol can be used if the ethanol con-
tent does not exceed 10% (E10). Gas-
ohol containing methanol is not
recommended by Yamaha because it
can cause damage to the fuel system
or vehicle performance problems.
Recommen
ded fuel:
Regular unleaded gasoline (E10 ac-
ceptable)
Fuel tank capacity:
13 L (3.4 US gal, 2.9 Imp.gal)
Fuel reserve amount: 2.4 L (0.63 US gal, 0.53 Imp.gal)

Fuel tank overflow hoseBefore operating the vehicle:
Check the fuel tank overflow hose
connection.
Check the fuel tank overflow hose
for cracks or damage, and replace
it if necessary.
Make sure that the end of the fuel
tank overflow hose is not blocked,
and clean it if necessary.
Make sure that the end of the fuel
tank overflow hose is positioned
as shown.TIPSee page 8-11 for canister information.
EAU13435
Catalytic converterThe exhaust system contains catalytic
converter(s) to reduce harmful exhaust
emissions.
WARNING
EWA10863
The exhaust system is hot after op-
eration. To prevent a fire hazar d or
b urns:
Do not park the vehicle near
possi ble fire hazar ds such as
g rass or other materials that
easily burn.
Park the vehicle in a place
where pe destrians or chil dren
are not likely to touch the hot
exhaust system.
Make sure that the exhaust sys-
tem has cooled down before
d oin g any maintenance work.
Do not allow the en gine to id le
more than a few minutes. Lon g
i d lin g can cause a buil d-up of
heat.
EAU89051
Stora ge compartmentThe storage compartment is located
under the seat. (See page 3-9.)TIP The seat/storage compartment
can be opened using the smart
key system or the mechanical key.
Some helmets cannot be stored in
the storage compartment be-
cause of their size or shape.To open the seat/storag e compart-
ment via the main switch
Turn the main switch to “OPEN”, and
then push the “SEAT” button.

EAU17246
Periodic inspection, adjustment, and
lubrication will keep your vehicle in the
safest and most efficient condition
possible. Safety is an obligation of the
vehicle owner/operator. The most im-
portant points of vehicle inspection,
adjustment, and lubrication are ex-
plained on the following pages.
The intervals given in the periodic
maintenance charts should be simply
considered as a general guide under
normal riding conditions. However, de-
pending on the weather, terrain, geo-
graphical location, and individual use,
the maintenance intervals may need to
be shortened.
WARNING
EWA10322
Failure to properly maintain the vehi-
cle or performin g maintenance ac-
tivities incorrectly may increase
your risk of injury or death during
service or while usin g the vehicle. If
you are not familiar with vehicle ser-
vice, have a Yamaha d ealer perform
service.
WARNING
EWA15123
Turn off the en gine when performin g
maintenance unless otherwise
specified .
A runnin g en gine has movin g
parts that can catch on b ody
parts or clothin g an d electrical
parts that can cause shocks or
fires.
Runnin g the eng ine while ser-
vicin g can lead to eye injury,
b urns, fire, or car bon monoxi de
poisonin g – possi bly lea din g to
d eath. See pag e 1-2 for more in-
formation a bout car bon monox-

WARNING
EWA15461
Brake discs, calipers, drums, an d
linin gs can b ecome very hot during
use. To avoi d possi ble burns, let
b rake components cool before
touching them.
EAU17303
Emission controls not only function to
ensure cleaner air, but are also vital to
proper engine operation and maximum
performance. In the following periodic
maintenance charts, the services relat-
ed to emissions control are grouped
separately. These services require
specialized data, knowledge, and
equipment. Maintenance, replace-
ment, or repair of the emission control
devices and systems may be per-
formed by any repair establishment or
individual that is certified (if applicable).
Yamaha dealers are trained and
equipped to perform these particular
services.
