SAFETY INFORMATION
THIS MACHINE IS DESIGNED STRICTLY FOR COMPETITION USE, ONLY ON A CLOSED
COURSE. It is illegal for this machine to be operat ed on any public street, road, or highway. Off-road
use on public lands may also be illegal. Pl ease check local regulations before riding.
• THIS MACHINE IS TO BE OPERATED BY AN EXPERIENCED RIDER ONLY. Do not attempt to operate this machine at maximum power until you are totally familiar with its char-
acteristics.
• THIS MACHINE IS DESIGNED TO BE RIDDEN BY THE OPERATOR ONLY. Do not carry passengers on this machine.
• ALWAYS WEAR PROTECTIVE APPAREL. When operating this machine, always wear an approved helmet with goggles or a face shield. Also
wear heavy boots, gloves, and protective clothing. Al ways wear proper fitting clothing that will not
be caught in any of the moving parts or controls of the machine.
• ALWAYS MAINTAIN YOUR MACHINE IN PROPER WORKING ORDER. For safety and reliability, the machine must be properly maintained. Always perform the pre-oper-
ation checks indicated in this manual.
Correcting a mechanical problem before you ride may prevent an accident.
• GASOLINE IS HIGHLY FLAMMABLE. Always turn off the engine while refueling. Take care to not spill any gasoline on the engine or ex-
haust system. Never refuel in the vicini ty of an open flame, or while smoking.
• GASOLINE CAN CAUSE INJURY. If you should swallow some gasoline, inhale excess gasoline vapors, or allow any gasoline to get
into your eyes, contact a doctor immediately. If any gasoline spills onto your skin or clothing, imme-
diately wash skin areas with soap and water, and change your clothes.
• ONLY OPERATE THE MACHINE IN AN AREA WITH ADEQUATE VENTILATION.
Never start the engine or let it run for any length of time in an enclosed area. Exhaust fumes are
poisonous. These fumes contain carbon monoxide, whic h by itself is odorless and colorless. Car-
bon monoxide is a dangerous gas which can cause unconsciousness or can be lethal.
• PARK THE MACHINE CAREFULLY; TURN OFF THE ENGINE. Always turn off the engine if you are going to leave the machine. Do not park the machine on a slope
or soft ground as it may fall over.
• THE ENGINE, EXHAUST PIPE AND MUFFLER WILL BE VERY HOT AFTER THE ENGINE HAS BEEN RUN.
Be careful not to touch them or to allow any clothing item to contact them during inspection or repair.
• PROPERLY SECURE THE MACHINE BEFORE TRANSPORTING IT. For safety, drain the gasoline from the fuel tank before transporting the vehicle.

BASIC SERVICE INFORMATION

ECA
NOTICE
Handle electrical components with special
care, and do not subject them to strong
shocks.
ECA
NOTICE
Electrical components are very sensitive to
and can be damaged by static electricity.
Therefore, never touch the terminals and be
sure to keep the contacts clean.
TIP
Push and hold the engine stop switch to turn off
the multi-function display when resetting the
ECU (Electronic Control Unit). Disconnect the
starter motor lead of the starter relay, and then
push the starter switch. Be sure to wait for five
seconds or longer before pushing the start
switch after the multi-function display goes off.Checking the electrical system
TIP
Before checking the electrical system, make
sure that the battery voltage is at least 12 V.
ECA
NOTICE
Never insert the tester probes into the cou-
pler terminal slots. Always insert the probes
from the opposite end “a” of the coupler,
taking care not to loosen or damage the
leads.
ECA
NOTICE
For waterproof couplers, never insert the
tester probes directly into the coupler.
When performing any checks using a water-
proof coupler, use the specified test har-
ness or a suitable commercially available
test harness.

Checking the connections
Check the leads, couplers, and connectors for
stains, rust, moisture, etc.
1. Disconnect:• Lead
• Coupler
• Connector
ECA
NOTICE
• When disconnecting a coupler, release the
coupler lock, hold both sections of the
coupler, and then disconnect the coupler.
• There are many types of coupler locks; therefore, be sure to check the type of cou-
pler lock before disconnecting the cou-
pler.
ECA
NOTICE
When disconnecting a connector, do not
pull the leads. Hold both sections of the
connector, and then disconnect the con-
nector. 2. Check:
• Lead
• Coupler
• ConnectorMoisture  Dry with compressed air.
Rust/stains  Connect and disconnect sev-
eral times.
3. Check: • All connectionsLoose connection  Connect properly.
TIP
• If the pin “1” on the terminal is flattened, bend
it up.
• After disassembling or assembling a coupler,
pull on the leads to make sure that they are in-
stalled securely.

• Connector
TIP
• When connecting a coupler or connector, make sure that both terminals are connected
securely.
• Make sure all connections are tight.
5. Check:• No continuity
TIP
• If there is no continuity, clean the terminals.
• When checking the wire harness, perform
steps (1) to (4).
• As a quick remedy, use a contact revitalizer
available at most part stores. Pocket tester

CONTROL FUNCTIONS
EAS2GC1030INDICATOR LIGHTS AND WARNING
LIGHTS
Fuel level warning light “ ”
This warning light comes on when the fuel level
drops below approximately 1.6 L (0.42 US gal,
0.35 Imp.gal). When this occurs, refuel as soon
as possible.
The electrical circuit of the warning light can be
checked by pushing the start switch. The warn-
ing light should come on for a few seconds, and
then go off.
If the warning light does not come on initially
when the start switch is pushed, or if the warn-
ing light remains on, have a Yamaha dealer
check the electrical circuit.
Engine trouble warning light “ ”
This warning light comes on or flashes if a prob-
lem is detected in the electrical circuit monitor-
ing the engine. If this occurs, have a Yamaha
dealer check the vehicle.
The electrical circuit of the warning light can be
checked by pushing the start switch. The warn-
ing light should come on for a few seconds, and
then go off.
If the warning light does not come on initially
when the start switch is pushed, or if the warn-
ing light remains on, have a Yamaha dealer

EAS2GC1079
PRE-OPERATION INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
Before riding for break-in operation, practice or a race, make sure the machine is in good operating
condition.
Before using this machine, check the following points.
EAS2GC1080GENERAL INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
TIP
Perform usual maintenance enough so that, in the race course, a confirmation of that and simple set-
ting adjustments may only be left, in order to get enough time to use effectively.ITEM inspect Page
Coolant Check that coolant is filled up to the radiator cap.
Check the cooling system for leakage. 3-10 – 12
Fuel Check that a fresh gasoline is filled in the fuel tank.
Check the fuel line for leakage. 1-28
Engine oil Check that the oil level is correct. Check the crank-
case and oil line for leakage. 3-16 – 18
Gear shifter and clutch Check that gears can be shifted correctly in order and
that the clutch operates smoothly. 3-12 – 13
Throttle grip/Housing Check that the throttle grip operation and free play
are correctly adjusted. Lubricate the throttle grip and
housing, if necessary. 3-13 – 14
Brakes Check the play of front brake and effect of front and
rear brake. 3-25 – 31
Drive chain Check drive chain slack and alignment. Check that
the drive chain is lubricated properly. 3-31
5-69 – 70
Wheels Check for excessive wear and tire pressure. Check
for loose spokes and have no excessive play. 3-36 – 37
Steering Check that the handlebar can be turned smoothly and
have no excessive play. 3-37 – 38
Front forks and rear
shock absorber Check that they operate smoothly and there is no oil
leakage.
3-31 – 36
Cables (wires) Check that the clutch and throttle cables move
smoothly. Check that they are not caught when the
handlebars are turned or when the front forks travel
up and down.
—
Exhaust pipe Check that the exhaust pipe is tightly mounted and
has no cracks. 3-15 – 16
Rear wheel sprocket Check that the rear wheel sprocket tightening bolt is
not loose. 5-10 – 11
Lubrication Check for smooth operation. Lubricate if necessary. 3-14
3-38 – 39
Bolts and nuts Check the chassis and engine for loose bolts and
nuts. 1-32 – 33
Lead connectors Check that the AC magneto, ECU and ignition coil are
connected tightly. 1-9 – 12
Settings Is the machine set suitably for the condition of the rac-
ing course and weather or by taking into account the
results of test runs before racing? Are inspection and
maintenance completely done?
