The electrical circuit of the warning light
can be checked by turning the key to
“ON”.
If the warning light does not come on
for a few seconds, then go off, have a
Yamaha dealer check the electrical cir-
cuit.NOTE:Even if the oil level is sufficient, the
warning light may flicker when riding on
a slope or during sudden acceleration
or deceleration, but this is not a mal-function.
EAU11530
Engine trouble warning light“”
This warning light comes on or flashes
when an electrical circuit monitoring the
engine is defective. When this occurs,have a Yamaha dealer check the self-
diagnosis system. (See page 3-6 for an
explanation of the self-diagnosis de-
vice.)
The electrical circuit of the warning light

ments of the fuel meter disappear to-
wards “E” (Empty) as the fuel level
decreases. When the fuel level warning
indicator“” starts flashing, refuel as
soon as possible.
NOTE:This fuel meter is equipped with a self-
diagnosis system. If the electrical circuit
is defective, the following cycle will be
repeated until the malfunction is cor-
rected: All the display segments and
symbol“” will flash eight times, thengo off for approximately 3 seconds. If
this occurs, have a Yamaha dealer
check the electrical circuit.

3If any of the immobilizer system circuits
are defective, the immobilizer system
indicator light will flash, and then the
display will indicate a two-digit error
code.
NOTE:If the display indicates error code 52,
this could be caused by transponder in-
terference. If this error code appears,try the following.
1. Use the code re-registering key to
start the engine.NOTE:Make sure there are no other immobi-
lizer keys close to the main switch, and
do not keep more than one immobilizer
key on the same key ring! Immobilizer
system keys may cause signal interfer-
ence, which may prevent the enginefrom starting.
2. If the engine starts, turn it off and
try starting the engine with the
standard keys.
3. If one or both of the standard keys
do not start the engine, take the
vehicle, the code re-registeringkey and both standard keys to a
Yamaha dealer and have the stan-
dard keys re-registered.
If the display indicates any error codes,
note the code number, and then have a
Yamaha dealer check the vehicle.
CAUTION:

EAU15950
WARNING
EWA10270
Become thoroughly familiar
with all operating controls and
their functions before riding.
Consult a Yamaha dealer re-
garding any control or function
that you do not thoroughly un-
derstand.
Never start the engine or oper-
ate it in a closed area for any
length of time. Exhaust fumes
are poisonous, and inhaling
them can cause loss of con-
sciousness and death within a
short time. Always make sure
that there is adequate ventila-
tion.
Before starting out, make sure
that the sidestand is up. If the
sidestand is not raised com-
pletely, it could contact the
ground and distract the opera-
tor, resulting in a possible lossof control.
EAU45310
NOTE:This model is equipped with a lean an-
gle sensor to stop the engine in case of
a turnover. To start the engine after a
turnover, be sure to turn the main
switch to “OFF” and then to “ON”. Fail-
ing to do so will prevent the engine from
starting even though the engine willcrank when pushing the start switch.
EAU32952
Starting the engine 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 lever pulled and the sid-
estand up.WARNING
EWA10290
Before starting the engine,
check the function of the igni-
tion circuit cut-off system ac-
cording to the procedure
described on page 3-22.
Never ride with the sidestanddown.
1. Turn the key to “ON” and make
sure that the engine stop switch is
set to“”.
CAUTION:

If a warning or indicator light does
not go off, see page 3-4 for the corre-
sponding warning and indicator
light circuit check.
2. Shift the transmission into the neu-
tral position.NOTE:When the transmission is in the neutral
position, the neutral indicator light
should be on, otherwise have a
Yamaha dealer check the electrical cir-cuit.
3. Start the engine by pushing the
start switch.NOTE:If the engine fails to start, release the
start switch, wait a few seconds, and
then try again. Each starting attempt
should be as short as possible to pre-
serve the battery. Do not crank the en-
gine more than 10 seconds on any oneattempt.
CAUTION:
ECA11040
For maximum engine life, never ac-
celerate hard when the engine iscold!
EAU16671
Shifting Shifting gears lets you control the
amount of engine power available for
starting off, accelerating, climbing hills,
etc.
The gear positions are shown in the il-
lustration.NOTE:To shift the transmission into the neu-
tral position, press the shift pedal down
repeatedly until it reaches the end of itstravel, and then slightly raise it.1. Shift pedal

Panel C
To remove the panelRemove the bolts, and then take the
panel off.
To install the panelPlace the panel in the original position,
and then install the bolts.
EAU19544
Checking the spark plugs The spark plugs are important engine
components, which are easy to check.
Since heat and deposits will cause any
spark plug to slowly erode, the spark
plugs should be removed and checked
in accordance with the periodic mainte-
nance and lubrication chart. In addition,
the condition of the spark plugs can re-
veal the condition of the engine.
To remove a spark plug
1. Remove the spark plug cap.
2. Remove the spark plug as shown,
with the spark plug wrench includ-
ed in the owner’s tool kit.To check the spark plugs
1. Check that the porcelain insulator
around the center electrode on
each spark plug is a medium-to-
light tan (the ideal color when the
vehicle is ridden normally).
2. Check that all spark plugs installed
in the engine have the same color.
NOTE:If any spark plug shows a distinctly dif-
ferent color, the engine could be oper-
ating improperly. Do not attempt to
diagnose such problems yourself. In-
stead, have a Yamaha dealer checkthe vehicle.

63. Check each spark plug for elec-
trode erosion and excessive car-
bon or other deposits, and replace
it if necessary.
To install a spark plug
1. Measure the spark plug gap with a
wire thickness gauge and, if nec-
essary, adjust the gap to specifica-
tion.2. Clean the surface of the spark plug
gasket and its mating surface, and
then wipe off any grime from the
spark plug threads.
3. Install the spark plug with the
spark plug wrench, and then tight-
en it to the specified torque.
NOTE:
If a torque wrench is not available when
installing a spark plug, a good estimate
of the correct torque is 1/4–1/2 turn
past finger tight. However, the spark
plug should be tightened to the speci-fied torque as soon as possible.
4. Install the spark plug cap.
EAU19695
Engine oil and oil filter ele-
ment The engine oil level should be checked
before each ride. In addition, the oil
must be changed and the oil filter ele-
ment replaced at the intervals specified
in the periodic maintenance and lubri-
cation chart.
To check the engine oil level
1. Place the vehicle on the center-
stand.NOTE:
Make sure that the vehicle is positioned
straight up when checking the oil level.
A slight tilt to the side can result in afalse reading.
2. Start the engine, warm it up for
several minutes, and then turn it
off.
3. Wait a few minutes until the oil set-
tles, and then check the oil level
through the check window located
at the bottom-right side of the
crankcase.

for several minutes while checking
it for oil leakage. If oil is leaking, im-
mediately turn the engine off and
check for the cause.
NOTE:After the engine is started, the engine
oil level warning light should go off if theoil level is sufficient.CAUTION:
ECA10400
If the oil level warning light flickers
or remains on, immediately turn the
engine off and have a Yamaha dealercheck the vehicle.15. Turn the engine off, and then
check the oil level and correct it if
necessary.
EAU43450
Replacing the air filter element
and cleaning the check hose The air filter element should be re-
placed at the intervals specified in the
periodic maintenance and lubrication
chart. Replace the air filter element
more frequently if you are riding in un-
usually wet or dusty areas. In addition,
the air filter check hose must be fre-
quently checked and cleaned if neces-
sary.
To replace the air filter element
1. Remove panel A. (See page 6-6.)
2. Remove the air filter case cover by
removing the screws.
