WARNING
Improper maintenance can result in loss of
braking ability. Observe these precau-
tions:●
Insufficient brake fluid may allow air
to enter the brake system, reducing
braking performance.
●
Clean the filler cap before removing.
Use only DOT 4 brake fluid from a
sealed container.
●
Use only the specified brake fluid;
otherwise, the rubber seals may dete-
riorate, causing leakage.
●
Refill with the same type of brake flu-
id. Adding a brake fluid other than
DOT 4 may result in a harmful chemi-
cal reaction.
●
Be careful that water does not enter
the brake fluid reservoir when refill-
ing. Water will significantly lower the
boiling point of the fluid and may re-
sult in vapor lock.
NOTICEBrake fluid may damage painted surfaces
or plastic parts. Always clean up spilled
fluid immediately.As the brake pads wear, it is normal for the
brake fluid level to gradually go down. A low
brake fluid level may indicate worn brake
pads and/or brake system leakage; therefore,
be sure to check the brake pads for wear and
the brake system for leakage. If the brake fluid
level goes down suddenly, have a Yamaha
dealer check the cause before further riding.EVU00860Brake fluid replacementComplete fluid replacement should be done
only by trained Yamaha service personnel.
Have a Yamaha dealer replace the following
components during periodic maintenance or
when they are damaged or leaking.●
Replace the oil seals every two years.
●
Replace the brake hoses every four years.

2. Remove the spark plug, pour about one tablespoon of SAE 10W-40 or 20W-50
motor oil in the spark plug hole and install
the spark plug. Ground the spark plug
wire and turn the engine over several
times to coat the cylinder wall with oil.
3. Lubricate all control cables.
4. Block up the frame to raise all wheels off the ground.
5. Tie a plastic bag over the exhaust pipe outlet to prevent moisture from entering.
6. If storing in a humid or salt-air atmo-
sphere, coat all exposed metal surfaces
with a light film of oil. Do not apply oil to
any rubber parts or the seat covers. 7. Remove the battery and charge it. Store
it in a dry place and recharge it once a
month. Do not store the battery in an ex-
cessively warm or cold place [less than
0 °C (30 °F) or more than 30 °C (90 °F)].
Use of fuel stabilizer and conditioner elimi-
nates the need to drain the fuel system. Con-
sult a Yamaha dealer if the fuel system needs
to be drained.1XP7B_EE.book Page 3 Tuesday, February 4, 2014 3:40 PM
