Each full-throttle acceleration sequence
should be followed with a substantial rest pe-
riod for the engine, by cruising at lower r/min
so the engine can rid itself of the temporary
build-up of heat. If any abnormality is noticed
during this period, consult a Yamaha dealer.
0–10 hours:
Avoid continuous operation above 1/2-throt-
tle. Allow a cooling-off period of 5 to 10 min-
utes after every hour of operation. Vary the
speed of the vehicle from time to time. Do not
operate it at one set throttle position.
10–20 hours:
Avoid prolonged operation above three-quar-
ter throttle.
After break-in:
The vehicle may now be operated normally.

Engine overheating
Wait for the engine to cool before removing the radiator cap. WARNING! If the engine is not
cool when removing the radiator cap, hot fluid and steam could blow out under pressure
and burn you. Place a thick rag over the cap and remove the cap slowly to allow any remaining
pressure to escape.TIPIf it is difficult to get the recommended coolant , tap water can be used temporarily, provided that
it is changed to the recommended coolant as soon as possible.Wait until the
engine has cooled.
Check the coolant level in the
coolant reservoir and/or radiator.
Level is OK.Level is low, check the
cooling system for leakage.
No
leakage.Leakage.
Ask a Yamaha dealer to inspect
and repair the cooling system.Add coolant. (See TIP.)
