EAS2GC1075INTRODUCTION
This chapter includes all information necessary to perform recommended checks and adjustments.
If followed, these preventive maintenance procedures will ensure more reliable vehicle operation, a
longer service life and reduce the need for costly ov erhaul work. This information applies to vehicles
already in service as well as to new vehicles that are being prepared for sale. All service technicians
should be familiar with this entire chapter.

EAS2GC1078MAINTENANCE INTERVALS FOR COMPETITION USE
TIP
• The following schedule is intended as a general guide to maintenance and lubrication. Bear in mind that such factors as weather, terrain, geographical location, and individual usage will alter the re-
quired maintenance and lubrication intervals. If you ar e a doubt as to what intervals to follow in
maintaining and lubricating your ma chine, consult your Yamaha dealer.
• Periodic inspection is essential in making full use of the machine performance. The service life of
the parts varies substantially according to the en vironment in which the machine runs (e.g., rain,
dirt, etc.). Therefore, earlier inspection is required by reference to the list below.

NOTICE
• Since engine oil also lubricates the clutch, the wrong oil types or additives could
cause clutch slippage. Therefore, do not
add any chemical additives.
• Do not allow foreign material to enter the
crankcase.
EAS2GC1097CHANGING THE ENGINE OIL
Stand the vehicle upright on a level surface.
1. Start the engine, warm this up for 3 minutes, and then stop the engine and wait about 5
minutes.
TIP
This model is equipped with an engine auto-
stop system. The engine stops automatically if
left idling for 7 minutes. If the engine stops,
push the start switch or push down the kick-
starter lever to restart the engine.
2. Place an oil pan under the drain bolt.
3. Remove:• Engine guard “1”
• Oil filler cap “2”
• Drain bolt (with gasket) “3” 4. If the oil filter element is also to be replaced,
perform the following procedure.
▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼
a. Remove the oil filter element cover “1” and oil filter element “2”.
b. Replace the O-ring “3”.
c. Install the new oil filter element and the oil fil- ter element cover.

EAS2GC1099ADJUSTING THE VALVE CLEARANCE
TIP
• This section is intended for those who have basic knowledge and skill concerning the ser-
vicing of Yamaha motorcycles (e.g., Yamaha
dealers, service engineers, etc.). Those who
have little knowledge and skill concerning ser-
vicing are requested not to undertake inspec-
tion, adjustment, disassembly, or reassembly
only by reference to this manual. It may lead
to servicing trouble and mechanical damage.
• Make sure that the valve clearance is checked or adjusted while the engine is cold
(at room temperature).
• While the valve clearance is checked or ad- justed, make sure that the piston is positioned
in the top dead center (TDC).
1. Remove: • Seat
• Side cover (left/right)
• Air scoop (left/right)Refer to “GENERAL CHASSIS” on page 5-
1.
• Fuel tank
Refer to “FUEL TANK” on page 8-1.
•ECU
2. Remove:
• Spark plug
• Cylinder head coverRefer to “CAMSHAFT” on page 6-11.
3. Remove: • Timing mark accessing screw “1”
• Crankshaft end accessing screw “2”
• O-ring 4. Check:
• Valve clearanceOut of specification Regulate.
▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼
a. Turn the crankshaft counterclockwise with a
wrench.
b. Align the top dead center (TDC) mark “a” on the rotor with the alignment mark “b” on the
crankcase cover.
TIP
Check that the alignment mark “c” on the cam-
shaft sprocket and the alignment mark “d” on
the intake camshaft sprocket are aligned with
the edge of the cylinder head.
c. Measure the valve clearance “e” using a
thickness gauge “1”.
TIP
Record the measured reading if the clearance
is incorrect.

EAS2GC1127LUBRICATING THE DRIVE CHAIN
The drive chain consists of many interacting
parts. If the drive chain is not maintained prop-
erly, it will wear out quickly. Therefore, the drive
chain should be serviced, especially when the
vehicle is used in dusty areas.
This vehicle has a drive chain with small rubber
O-rings between each side plate. Steam clean-
ing, high-pressure washing, certain solvents,
and the use of a coarse brush can damage
these O-rings. Therefore, use only kerosene to
clean the drive chain. Wipe the drive chain dry
and thoroughly lubricate it with engine oil or
chain lubricant that is suitable for O-ring chains.
Do not use any other lubricants on the drive
chain since they may contain solvents that
could damage the O-rings.
EAS2GC1128LUBRICATING THE SIDESTAND
Lubricate the pivoting point and metal-to-metal
moving parts of the sidestand.
EAS2GC1129CHECKING THE CHASSIS FASTENERS
Make sure that all nuts, bolts, and screws are
properly tightened.
Refer to “CHASSIS TIGHTENING TORQUES”
on page 2-17.Recommended lubricant
Chain lubricant suitable for O-
ring chains
Recommended lubricant Lithium-soap-based grease

ECU detects an abnormal signal from a sensor
If the ECU detects an abnormal signal from a sensor while the vehicle is being driven, the ECU illu-
minates the engine trouble warning light and provides the engine with alternate operating instructions
that are appropriate for the type of malfunction.
When an abnormal signal is received from a sensor, the ECU processes the specified values that are
programmed for each sensor in order to provide the engine with alternate operating instructions that
enable the engine to continue operating or stop operating, depending on the conditions.
EAS2GC1376TROUBLESHOOTING METHOD
The engine operation is not normal and the engine trouble warning light comes on.
1. Check: • Fault code number
▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼
a. Connect the Yamaha diagnostic tool. Refer to “YAMAHA DIAGNOSTIC TOOL” on page 9-32.
b. Check the fault code number disp layed on the Yamaha diagnostic tool.
c. Identify the faulty system with the fault code number.
d. Identify the probable cause of the malfunction.

2. Check and repair the probable cause of the malfunction.
3. Perform the reinstatement action for the fuel injection system. Refer to “Confirmation of service
completion” in the appropriate table in “TROUBLESHOOTING DETAILS” on page 9-35.
4. After pushing the engine stop switch, push the start switch to check whether the fault code no. is
displayed.
TIP
If another fault code number is displayed, repeat steps (1) to (4) until no fault code number is dis-
played.
5. Erase the malfunction history in the diagnostic mode. Refer to “SENSOR OPERATION TABLE”
(Diagnostic code No.62).
TIP
Turning off the meter light will not erase the malfunction history.
The engine operation is not normal, but the engine trouble warning light does not come on.
1. Check the operation of the following sensors an d actuators in the diagnostic mode. Refer to
“TROUBLESHOOTING DETAILS” on page 9-35.
If a malfunction is detected in the sensors or ac tuators, repair or replace all faulty parts.
If no malfunction is detected in the sensors and ac tuators, check and repair the inner parts of the
engine. Fault code No. No fault code No.
Check and repair. Refer to “TROUBLESHOOT-
ING DETAILS” on page 9-35.
Monitor the operation of the sensors and actua-
tors in the diagnostic mode. Refer to “TROU-
BLESHOOTING DETAILS” on page 9-35 and
“LIST OF SELF-DIAGNOSTIC AND FAIL-SAFE
ACTIONS” on page 10-5. Check and repair.
