Loa din g
Adding accessories to your motorcycle
can adversely affect stability and han-
dling if the weight distribution of the
motorcycle is changed. To avoid the
possibility of an accident, use extreme
caution when adding accessories to
your motorcycle. Use extra care when
riding a motorcycle that has added ac-
cessories. Here are some general
guidelines to follow if adding accesso-
ries to your motorcycle:
Operation of an overload ed vehicle
coul d cause an acci dent.
 The weight of the operator must
not exceed 40.0 kg (88 lb).
 Accessory weight should be kept
as low and close to the motorcy-
cle as possible. Securely pack
your heaviest items as close to the
center of the vehicle as possible
and make sure to distribute the weight as evenly as possible on
both sides of the motorcycle to
minimize imbalance or instability.
 Shifting weights can create a sud-
den imbalance. Make sure that
accessories are securely attached
to the motorcycle before riding.
Check accessory mounts fre-
quently.
• Properly adjust the suspension for your load (suspension-ad-
justable models only), and
check the condition and pres-
sure of your tires.
• Never attach any large or heavy items to the handlebar, front
fork, or front fender.
Genuine Yamaha Accessories
Choosing accessories for your vehicle
is an important decision. Genuine
Yamaha accessories, which are avail- able only from a Yamaha dealer, have
been designed, tested, and approved
by Yamaha for use on your vehicle.
Many companies with no connection
to Yamaha manufacture parts and ac-
cessories or offer other modifications
for Yamaha vehicles. Yamaha is not in
a position to test the products that
these aftermarket companies produce.
Therefore, Yamaha can neither en-
dorse nor recommend the use of ac-
cessories not sold by Yamaha or
modifications not specifically recom-
mended by Yamaha, even if sold and
installed by a Yamaha dealer.

quality prod uct.
 Ride conservatively after

Spoke wheels
To maximize the performance, durabil-
ity, and safe operation of the vehicle,
note the following points.
 Check each wheel for cracks, de-
formation and other damage. If
any damage is found, have the
wheel inspected by your Yamaha
dealer. Do not attempt to repair or
straighten a bent or damaged
wheel.
 Check the spokes for looseness. If
any loose spokes are found, have
the wheel adjusted by your
Yamaha dealer. Improperly tight- ened spokes can cause wheel
misalignment.
 Have the wheel balanced whenev-
er the tire or tube has been re-
placed. An unbalanced wheel can
result in adverse handling charac-
teristics and shortened tire life.
