CHASFRONT BRAKE AND REAR BRAKE
2. Install:
lBrake hose holder 1
lScrew (brake hose holder) 2
CAUTION:
After installing the brake hose holders,
make sure the brake hose does not contact
the spring (rear shock absorber). If it does,
correct its twist.
Brake fluid
1. Fill:
lBrake fluid
Until the fluid level reaches “LOWER”
level line a.
WARNING
lUse only the designated quality brake
fluid:
otherwise, the rubber seals may deterio-
rate, causing leakage and poor brake per-
formance.
lRefill with the same type of brake fluid;
mixing fluids may result in a harmful chem-
ical reaction and lead to poor performance.
lBe careful that water does not enter the
master cylinder when refilling. Water will
significantly lower the boiling point of the
fluid and may result in vapor lock.
CAUTION:
Brake fluid may erode painted surfaces or
plastic parts. Always clean up spilled fluid
immediately.

CHASFRONT FORK
EC556000
HANDLING NOTE
NOTE:
The front fork requires careful attention. So it is
recommended that the front fork be main-
tained at the dealers.
CAUTION:
To prevent an accidental explosion of air,
the following instructions should be
observed:
lThe front fork with a built-in piston rod
has a very sophisticated internal con-
struction and is particularly sensitive to
foreign material.
Use enough care not to allow any foreign
material to come in when the oil is
replaced or when the front fork is disas-
sembled and reassembled.
lBefore removing the cap bolts or front
forks, be sure to extract the air from the
air chamber completely.

REMOVAL POINTS
Front fork cap bolt
1. Remove:
lFront fork cap bolt 1
From the outer tube.
NOTE:
Before removing the front fork from the
machine, loosen the front fork cap bolt.
2. Remove:
lFront fork cap bolt 1
NOTE:
lWhile compressing the fork spring, set the
thin type spanners 2 between the spacer 3
and spring guide 4.
lHold the locknut 5 and remove the front fork
cap bolt.

CHAS
HANDLING NOTE
WARNING
This rear shock absorber is provided with a
separate type tank filled with high-pressure
nitrogen gas. To prevent the danger of
explosion, read and understand the follow-
ing information before handling the shock
absorber.
The manufacturer can not be held respon-
sible for property damage or personal
injury that may result from improper han-
dling.
1. Never tamper or attempt to disassem-
ble the cylinder or the tank.
2. Never throw the rear shock absorber
into an open flame or other high heat.
The rear shock absorber may explode
as a result of nitrogen gas expansion
and/or damage to the hose.
3. Be careful not to damage any part of
the gas tank. A damaged gas tank will
impair the damping performance or
cause a malfunction.
4. Take care not to scratch the contact
surface of the piston rod with the cylin-
der; or oil could leak out.
5. Never attempt to remove the plug at
the bottom of the nitrogen gas tank. It
is very dangerous to remove the plug.
6. When scrapping the rear shock
absorber, follow the instructions on
disposal.
NOTES ON DISPOSAL (YAMAHA DEALERS
ONLY)
Before disposing the rear shock absorber, be
sure to extract the nitrogen gas from valve 1.
Wear eye protection to prevent eye damage
from escaping gas and/or metal chips.
WARNING
To dispose of a damaged or worn-out rear
shock absorber, take the unit to your
Yamaha dealer for this disposal procedure.

THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR
REPLACEMENT AND ADJUSTMENT
1. Remove:
lThrottle position sensor coupler
lScrew (throttle position sensor) 1
lWasher 2
lThrottle position sensor 3
NOTE:
Loosen the screws (throttle position sensor)
using the T20 bit (tamper resistant fastener
type).
2. Replace:
lThrottle position sensor
3. Install:
lThrottle position sensor 1
lWasher 2
lScrew (throttle position sensor) 3
NOTE:
lAlign the slot a in the throttle position sen-
sor with the projection b on the carburetor.
lTemporarily tighten the screws (throttle posi-
tion sensor).
4. Adjust:
lEngine idling speed
Refer to “ENGINE IDLE SPEED
ADJUSTMENT” section in the CHAP-
TER 3.
5. Calculate:
lThrottle position sensor coil resistance
at idle speed

If the throttle position sensor coil resistance is
5 kW, then the throttle position sensor coil
resistance at idle speed is:
5 kW ´ (0.13 ~ 0.15) = 650 ~ 750 W
Refer to “THROTTLE POSITION SEN-
SOR COIL INSPECTION” section
about the throttle position sensor coil
resistance. Throttle position sensor coil resistance
at idle speed:
Throttle position sensor coil resis-
tance ´ (0.13 ~ 0.15)
