4. If the engine oil is below the mini-
mum level mark, add sufficient oil
of the recommended type to raise
it to the correct level.
5. Insert the dipstick into the oil filler
hole, and then tighten the oil filler
cap.
To change the engine oil
1. Start the engine, warm it up for
several minutes, and then turn it
off.2. Place an oil pan under the engine
to collect the used oil.
3. Remove the engine oil filler cap
and the engine oil drain bolt to
drain the oil from the crankcase.
4. Check the washer for damage and
replace it if necessary.5. Install the washer and the engine
oil drain bolt, and then tighten the
drain bolt to the specified torque.
NOTE:
Make sure that the washer is properlyseated.
6. Add the specified amount of the
recommended engine oil, and then
install and tighten the oil filler cap.CAUTION:
ECA11670
Do not use oils with a diesel
specification of “CD” or oils of a
higher quality than specified. In
addition, do not use oils labeled
“ENERGY CONSERVING II” or
higher.

with the mesh sheet, clean it with
solvent, and then squeeze the re-
maining solvent out.
4. Check the sponge material for
damage and replace it if neces-
sary.
5. Allow the sponge material to dry.
6. Apply oil of the recommended type
to the entire surface of the sponge
material, and then squeeze the ex-
cess oil out.
NOTE:The sponge material should be wet butnot dripping.
7. Insert the sponge material into the
air filter case.

6Before riding, check that the brake fluid
is above the minimum level mark and
replenish if necessary. A low brake fluid
level may indicate worn brake pads
and/or brake system leakage. If the
brake fluid level is low, be sure to check
the brake pads for wear and the brake
system for leakage.
Observe these precautions:
When checking the fluid level,
make sure that the top of the brake
fluid reservoir is level.
Use only the recommended quality
brake fluid, otherwise the rubber
seals may deteriorate, causing
leakage and poor braking perfor-
mance.
Refill with the same type of brake
fluid. Mixing fluids may result in a
harmful chemical reaction and
lead to poor braking performance.
Be careful that water does not en-
ter the brake fluid reservoir when
refilling. Water will significantly
lower the boiling point of the fluid
and may result in vapor lock.
Brake fluid may deteriorate paint-
ed surfaces or plastic parts. Al-
ways clean up spilled fluid
immediately.
As the brake pads wear, it is nor-
mal for the brake fluid level to grad-
ually go down. However, if the
brake fluid level goes down sud-
denly, have a Yamaha dealer
check the cause.
EAUM1360
Changing the brake fluid Have a Yamaha dealer change the
brake fluid at the intervals specified in
the periodic maintenance and lubrica-
tion chart. In addition, have the brake
hose replaced every four years or
whenever it is damaged or leaking.
Recommended brake fluid:
