STARTING AND BREAK-IN
EAS2GC1049FUEL
Always use the recommended fuel as stated
below. Also, be sure to use new gasoline the
day of a race.
ECA
NOTICE
Use only unleaded gasoline. The use of
leaded gasoline will cause severe damage
to the engine internal parts such as valves,
piston rings, and exhaust system, etc.
TIP
Your Yamaha engine has been designed to use
premium unleaded gasoline with a pump oc-
tane number [(R+M)/2] of 91 or higher, or a re-
search octane number of 95 or higher. If
knocking (or pinging) occurs, use a gasoline of
a different brand.
EWA
WARNING
• For refueling, be sure to stop the engine and use enough care not to spill any fuel.
Also be sure to avoid refueling close to a
fire.
• Refuel after the engine, exhaust pipe, etc.
have cooled off.
Gasohol (For USA and Canada)
There are two types of gasohol: gasohol con-
taining ethanol and that containing methanol.
Gasohol containing ethanol can be used if the
ethanol content does not exceed 10%. Gasohol
containing methanol is not recommended by
Yamaha because it can cause damage to the
fuel system or vehicle performance problems.
EAS2GC1050HANDLING NOTEEWA
WARNING
Never start or run the engine in a closed ar-
ea. The exhaust fumes are poisonous; they
can cause loss of consciousness and death
in a very short time. Always operate the ma-
chine in a well-ventilated area.
ECA
NOTICE
• Unlike a two-stroke engine, this engine cannot be kick started when the throttle is
open because the kickstarter may kick
back. Also, if the throttle is open the air/
fuel mixture may be too lean for the engine
to start.
• Before starting the machine, perform the
checks in the pre-operation check list.
EAS2GC1051AIR FILTER MAINTENANCE
According to “CLEANING THE AIR FILTER
ELEMENT” section in the CHAPTER 3, apply
the Yamaha foam air filter oil or other quality
foam air filter oil to the element. (Excess oil in
the element may adversely affect engine start-
ing.)
EAS2GC1052STARTING A COLD ENGINEECA
NOTICE
For maximum engine life, never accelerate
hard when the engine is cold!
In order for the ignition circuit cut-off system to
enable starting, one of the following conditions
must be met:
• The transmission is in the neutral position.
• The transmission is in gear with the clutch le- ver pulled.
1. Pull the starter knob/idle screw “1” to its full length.
TIP
When the ambient temperature is 15°C (59°F)
or below, use the starter knob/idle screw.
2. Completely close the throttle.
3. Start the engine by pushing the start switch.If the engine fails to start when using the
start switch, release it, wait a few seconds,
and then try again.
Each starting attempt should be as short as
possible to preserve the battery. Do not
crank the engine more than 10 seconds on
any one attempt. If the engine does not start
with the starter motor, try using the kickstart-
er.

This section is intended for those who have basic knowledge and skill concerning the servicing of
Yamaha motorcycles (e.g., Yamaha dealers, serv ice engineers, etc.). Those who have little knowl-
edge and skill concerning servicing are requested not to undertake inspection, adjustment, disas-
sembly, or reassembly only by reference to this manual. It may lead to servicing trouble and

EAS2GC1340REMOVING THE FUEL TANK
1. Extract the fuel in the fuel tank through the fuel tank cap with a pump.
2. Remove:
• Fuel hose coupler
EWA
WARNING
Cover the fuel hose connection with a cloth
when disconnecting it. This is because re-
sidual pressure in the fuel hose could cause
fuel to spurt out when the hose is removed.
ECA
NOTICE
Make sure that the fuel hose is disconnect-
ed by hand. Do not forcefully disconnect the
hose with tools.
TIP
• To disconnect the fuel hose from the fuel tank, remove the fuel hose connector holder “a”,
and then slide the fuel hose connector cover.
• To remove the fuel hose from the fuel rail,
slide the fuel hose connector cover “1” on the
end of the hose in the direction of the arrow
shown, press the two buttons “2” on the sides
of the connector, and then remove the hose.
• Before removing the hose, place a few cloths in the area under where it will be removed.
• To prevent sand, dust, and other foreign ma- terials from entering the fuel pump, install the
included fuel hose joint cover 1 “3” and the
fuel hose joint cover 2 “4” onto the disconnect-
ed fuel hose and the fuel pump. 3. Remove:
• Side cover (left/right)
• Seat
• Air scoop (left/right)
• Fuel tank
TIP
Do not set the fuel tank down on the installation
surface of the fuel pump. Be sure to lean the
fuel tank against a wall or the like.
EAS2GC1341REMOVING THE FUEL PUMP
1. Remove:
• Fuel pump
ECA
NOTICE
Do not drop the fuel pump or give it a strong
shock.
EAS2GC1342CHECKING THE FUEL PUMP BODY
1. Check:• Fuel pump bodyObstructions  Clean.
Cracks/damage  Replace the fuel pump
assembly.
EAS2GC1343INSTALLING THE FUEL PUMP
1. Install: • Fuel pump gasket
• Fuel pump
• Fuel pump bracket
TIP
• Take care not to damage the installation sur-faces of the fuel tank.
• Always use a new fuel pump gasket.
• Install the lip on the fuel pump gasket upward.
• Install the fuel pump as shown in the figure.
• Align the projection “a” on the fuel pump with
the slot “b” in the fuel pump bracket.
• Tighten the fuel pump bolts in the proper tight-
ening sequence as shown.
