Matte color cautionNOTICE
ECA15193
Some models are equipped with
matte colored finished parts. Be
sure to consult a Yamaha dealer for
advice on what products to use be-
fore cleaning the vehicle. Using a
brush, harsh chemical products or
cleaning compounds when cleaning
these parts will scratch or damage
their surface. Wax also should not
be applied to any matte colored fin-ished parts.
EAU83443
CareFrequent, thorough cleaning of the ve-
hicle will not only enhance its appear-
ance but also will improve its general
performance and extend the useful life
of many components. Washing, clean-
ing, and polishing will also give you a
chance to inspect the condition of the
vehicle more frequently. Be sure to
wash the vehicle after riding in the rain
or near the sea, because salt is corro-
sive to metals.TIP
The roads of heavy snowfall areas
may be sprayed with salt as a
de-icing method. This salt can stay
on the roads well into spring, so be
sure to wash the underside and
chassis parts after riding in such
areas.

Genuine Yamaha care and main-
tenance products are sold under
the YAMALUBE brand in many
markets worldwide.

See your Yamaha dealer for addi-tional cleaning tips.
NOTICE
ECA26280
Improper cleaning can cause cos-
metic and mechanical damage. Do
not use:
high-pressure washers or
steam-jet cleaners. Excessive
water pressure may cause water
seepage and deterioration of
wheel bearings, brakes, trans-
mission seals and electrical de-
vices. Avoid high-pressure
detergent applications such as
those available in coin-operated
car washers.

harsh chemicals, including
strong acidic wheel cleaners,
especially on spoke or magne-
sium wheels.

harsh chemicals, abrasive
cleaning compounds, or wax on
matte-finished parts. Brushes
can scratch and damage the
matte-finish, use soft sponge or
towel only.

towels, sponges, or brushes
contaminated with abrasive
cleaning products or strong
chemicals such as, solvents,

fluid, or antifreeze, etc.
Before washing 1. Park the vehicle out of direct sun- light and allow it to cool. This will
help avoid water spots.
2. Make sure all caps, covers, electri- cal couplers and connectors are
tightly installed.
3. Cover the muffler end with a plas- tic bag and a strong rubber band.
4. Pre-soak stubborn stains like in- sects or bird droppings with a wet
towel for a few minutes.
5. Remove road grime and oil stains with a quality degreasing agent
and a plastic-bristle brush or
sponge. NOTICE: Do not use de-
greasing agent on areas requir-
ing lubrication such as seals,
gaskets, and wheel axles. Fol-
low product instructions.
[ECA26290]
Washing 1. Rinse off any degreaser and spray down the vehicle with a garden
hose. Use only enough pressure to do the job. Avoid spraying water
directly into the muffler, instrument
panel, air inlet, or other inner areas
such as underseat storage com-
partments.
2. Wash the vehicle with a quality au- tomotive-type detergent mixed
with cool water and a soft, clean
towel or sponge. Use an old tooth-
brush or plastic-bristle brush for
hard-to-reach places. NOTICE:
Use cold water if the vehicle has
been exposed to salt. Warm wa-
ter will increase salt’s corrosive
properties.
[ECA26301]
3. For windshield-equipped vehicles: Clean the windshield with a soft
towel or sponge dampened with
water and a pH neutral detergent.
If necessary, use a high-quality
windshield cleaner or polish for
motorcycles. NOTICE: Never use
any strong chemicals to clean
the windshield. Additionally,
some cleaning compounds for
plastic may scratch the wind-
shield, so be sure to test all
cleaning products before gener-
al application.
[ECA26310]
4. Rinse off thoroughly with clean wa- ter. Be sure to remove all deter-
gent residues, as they can be
harmful to plastic parts.
After washing 1. Dry the vehicle with a chamois or
absorbent towel, preferably micro-
fiber terrycloth.
2. For drive chain-equipped models: Dry and then lubricate the drive
chain to prevent rust.
3. Use a chrome polish to shine chrome, aluminum, and stainless
steel parts. Often the thermally in-
duced discoloring of stainless steel
exhaust systems can be removed
through polishing.
4. Apply a corrosion protection spray on all metal parts including chrome
or nickel-plated surfaces.
WARNING! Do not apply
silicone or oil spray to seats,
hand grips, rubber foot pegs or
tire treads. Otherwise these
parts will become slippery,
which could cause loss of con-
trol. Thoroughly clean the sur-
faces of these parts before

operating the vehicle.
[EWA20650]
5. Treat rubber, vinyl, and unpainted
plastic parts with a suitable care
product.
6. Touch up minor paint damage caused by stones, etc.
7. Wax all painted surfaces using a non-abrasive wax or use a detail
spray for motorcycles.
8. When finished cleaning, start the engine and let it idle for several
minutes to help dry any remaining
moisture.
9. If the headlight lens has fogged up, start the engine and turn on the
headlight to help remove the mois-
ture.
10. Let the vehicle dry completely be- fore storing or covering it.NOTICE
ECA26320

Do not apply wax to rubber or
unpainted plastic parts.

Do not use abrasive polishing
compounds as they will wear
away the paint.

Apply sprays and wax sparing-ly. Wipe off excess afterwards.
WARNING
EWA20660
Contaminants left on the brakes or
tires can cause loss of control.
Make sure there is no lubricant
or wax on the brakes or tires.

If necessary, wash the tires with
warm water and a mild deter-
gent.

If necessary, clean the brake
discs and pads with brake
cleaner or acetone.

Before riding at higher speeds,
test the vehicle’s braking perfor-mance and cornering behavior.
EAU83472
StorageAlways store the vehicle in a cool, dry
place. If necessary, protect it against
dust with a porous cover. Be sure the
engine and the exhaust system are
cool before covering the vehicle. If the
vehicle often sits for weeks at a time
between uses, the use of a quality fuel
stabilizer is recommended after each
fill-up.NOTICE
ECA21170

Storing the vehicle in a poorly
ventilated room or covering it
with a tarp, while it is still wet,
will allow water and humidity to
seep in and cause rust.

To prevent corrosion, avoid
damp cellars, stables (because
of the presence of ammonia)
and areas where strong chemi-cals are stored.
Long term storage
Before storing the vehicle long term (60
days or more): 1. Make all necessary repairs and

13 perform any outstanding mainte-
nance.
2. Follow all instructions in the Care section of this chapter.
3. Fill up the fuel tank, adding fuel stabilizer according to product in-
structions. Run the engine for 5
minutes to distribute treated fuel
through the fuel system.
4. For vehicles equipped with a fuel cock: Turn the fuel cock lever to
the off position.
5. For vehicles with a carburetor: To prevent fuel deposits from building
up, drain the fuel in the carburetor
float chamber into a clean contain-
er. Retighten the drain bolt and
pour the fuel back into the fuel
tank.
6. Use a quality engine fogging oil ac- cording to product instructions to
protect internal engine compo-
nents from corrosion. If engine fog-
ging oil is not available, perform
the following steps for each cylin-
der:
a. Remove the spark plug cap and spark plug.
b. Pour a teaspoonful of engine oil into the spark plug bore.
c. Install the spark plug cap onto the spark plug, and then place
the spark plug on the cylinder
head so that the electrodes are
grounded. (This will limit spark-
ing during the next step.)
d. Turn the engine over several times with the starter. (This will
coat the cylinder wall with oil.)
WARNING! To prevent dam-
age or injury from sparking,
make sure to ground the
spark plug electrodes while
turning the engine
over.
[EWA10952]
e. Remove the spark plug capfrom the spark plug, and then
install the spark plug and the
spark plug cap.
7. Lubricate all control cables, pivots, levers and pedals, as well as the
sidestand and centerstand (if
equipped).
8. Check and correct the tire air pres- sure, and then lift the vehicle so
that all wheels are off the ground.
Otherwise, turn the wheels a little
once a month in order to prevent the tires from becoming degraded
in one spot.
9. Cover the muffler outlet with a plastic bag to prevent moisture
from entering it.
10. Remove the battery and fully charge it, or attach a maintenance
charger to keep the battery opti-
mally charged. NOTICE: Confirm
that the battery and its charger
are compatible. Do not charge a
VRLA battery with a convention-
al charger.
[ECA26330]
TIP
If the battery will be removed,
charge it once a month and store it
in a temperate location between
0-30 C (32-90 F).

See page 7-29 for more informa-
tion on charging and storing thebattery.
