SAFETY INFORMATION
1-5
1
Check that the fuel cock (if
equipped) is in the “OFF” position
and that there are no fuel leaks.
Point the front wheel straight
ahead on the trailer or in the truck
bed, and choke it in a rail to pre-
vent movement.
Shift the transmission in gear (for
models with a manual transmis-
sion).
Secure the motorcycle with tie-
downs or suitable straps that are
attached to solid parts of the mo-
torcycle, such as the frame or up-
per front fork triple clamp (and not,
for example, to rubber-mounted
handlebars or turn signals, or parts
that could break). Choose the lo-
cation for the straps carefully so
the straps will not rub against
painted surfaces during transport.
The suspension should be com-
pressed somewhat by the tie-
downs, if possible, so that the mo-
torcycle will not bounce excessive-
ly during transport.

Try to reset the traction control system
and the lights by following the proce-
dures under “Resetting ” on page 3-22.
EAU38624
Immobilizer system indicator light
The electrical circuit of the indicator
light can be checked by turning the key
to “ON ”. The indicator light should
come on for a few seconds, and then
go off.
If the indicator light does not come on
initially when the key is turned to “ON ”,
or if the indicator light remains on, have
a Yamaha dealer check the electrical
circuit. When the key is turned to
“OFF ” and 30
seconds have passed, the indicator
light will start flashing indicating the im-
mobilizer system is enabled. After 24
hours have passed, the indicator light
will stop flashing, however the immobi-
lizer system is still enabled.
The self-diagnosis device also detects
problems in the immobilizer system cir-
cuits. (See page 3-14 for an explana-
tion of the self-diagnosis device.)

3settings while riding can distract the
operator and increase the risk of an
accident.
The multi-function meter unit is
equipped with the following:
a speedometer
a tachometer
an odometer
two tripmeters (which show the
distance traveled since they were
last set to zero)
a fuel reserve tripmeter (which
shows the distance traveled since
the last segment of the fuel meter
started flashing)
a clock
a fuel meter
an air intake temperature display
a coolant temperature display
a fuel consumption display (instan-
taneous and average consumption
functions)
a drive mode display (which shows
the selected drive mode)
a traction control system mode dis-
play (which shows the selected
traction control system mode)
a self-diagnosis device
an LCD and tachometer bright-
ness control mode
The left and right set buttons, located
under the display, allow you to control
or change the settings in the multi-func-
tion meter unit.
TIP
To use the left and right buttons,
the key must be turned to “ ON”,
except for the brightness mode.
For the U.K. only: To switch the
speedometer and odometer/trip-
meter/fuel consumption displays
between kilometers and miles,
press the left button for at least two
seconds.
Tachometer
The electric tachometer allows the rider
to monitor the engine speed and keep it
within the ideal power range.
When the key is turned to “ON ”, the ta-
chometer needle sweeps once across
the r/min range and then returns to zero
r/min in order to test the electrical cir-
cuit.NOTICE
ECA10031
Do not operate the engine in the ta-
chometer red zone.

Odometer and tripmeter modes
Pushing the left button switches the dis-
play between the odometer mode
“
ODO ” and the tripmeter modes “TRIP
1 ” and “TRIP 2 ” in the following order:
ODO → TRIP 1 → TRIP 2 → ODO
TIPWhen selecting “TRIP 1 ” or “TRIP 2 ”,
the display flashes for five seconds.When approximately 3.9 L (1.03 US
gal, 0.86 Imp.gal) of fuel remains in the
fuel tank, the display automatically
changes to the fuel reserve tripmeter
mode “TRIP F ” and starts counting the
distance traveled from that point. In that
case, pushing the left button switches the display between the various tripme-
ter and odometer modes in the follow-
ing order:
TRIP F
→ ODO → TRIP 1 → TRIP 2 →
TRIP F
TIPWhen selecting “TRIP 1 ”, “TRIP 2 ” or
“ TRIP F ”, the display flashes for five
seconds.To reset a tripmeter, select it by push-
ing the left button, and then push this
button for at least one second while the
display is flashing. If you do not reset
the fuel reserve tripmeter manually, it
resets itself automatically and the dis-
play returns to the prior mode after re-
fueling and traveling 5 km (3 mi). Clock
The clock displays when the key is
turned to “
ON”. In addition, the clock
can be displayed for 10 seconds by
pushing the left button when the main
switch is in the “ OFF”, “LOCK ” or “”
position.
To set the clock
1. Push the left button and right but- ton together for at least three sec-
onds.
2. When the hour digits start flashing, push the right button to set the
hours.

Fuel meter
The fuel meter indicates the amount of
fuel in the fuel tank. The display seg-
ments of the fuel meter disappear to-
wards “E ” (Empty) as the fuel level
decreases. When the last segment
starts flashing, refuel as soon as possi-
ble.
When the key is turned to “ON ”, all dis-
play segments come on once in order
to test the electrical circuit.
TIPThis fuel meter is equipped with a self-
diagnosis system. If a problem is de-
tected in the electrical circuit, all display
segments start flashing. If this occurs,
have a Yamaha dealer check the elec-
trical circuit.Air intake temperature, coolant tem-
perature, instantaneous fuel con-
sumption and average fuel
consumption modes Push the right button to switch the dis-
play between the air intake tempera-
ture mode, the coolant temperature
mode, the instantaneous fuel con-
sumption mode
“km/L ” or “ L/100 km ”,
and the average fuel consumption
mode “AVE_ _._ km/L ” or “ AVE_ _._
L/100 km ” in the following order:
air intake temperature → coolant tem-
perature → km/L or L/100 km → AVE_
_._ km/L or AVE_ _._ L/100 km → air
intake temperature
For the UK only:
Push the right button to switch the dis-
play between the air intake tempera-
ture mode, the coolant temperature
mode, the instantaneous fuel con-
sumption mode “km/L ”, “L/100 km ” or
“ MPG ”, and the average fuel consump-
tion mode “ AVE_ _._ km/L ”, “AVE_ _._
L/100 km ” or “ AVE_ _._ MPG ” in the fol-
lowing order:

ture mode is selected, in the case
of engine overheating, the coolant
temperature mode appears, the
coolant temperature warning light
comes on, and “HI” flashes in the
display.

Do not continue to operate the en-
gine if it is overheating.
Instantaneous fuel consumption modeThe instantaneous fuel consumption
display modes “km/L”, “L/100 km” or
“MPG” (for the UK only) show the fuel
consumption under the current riding
conditions.●
The “km/L” display shows the dis-
tance that can be traveled on 1.0 L
of fuel.
●
The “L/100 km” display shows the
amount of fuel necessary to travel
100 km.
●

MPG ” display shows the average
distance that can be traveled on
1.0 Imp.gal of fuel.
To switch between the average fuel
consumption displays, push the right
button when one of the displays is
shown.
To reset the average fuel consumption
display, select it by pushing the right
button, and then push the right button
for at least one second while the dis-
play is flashing.

Resetting
The traction control system will be dis-
abled in the following conditions:
The rear wheel is rotated with the
centerstand down and the key in
the “ ON” position.
Either the front wheel or rear wheel
comes off the ground while riding.
Excessive rear wheel spinning
If the traction control system has been
disabled, both the traction control sys-
tem indicator/warning light and the en-
gine trouble warning light come on. To reset the traction control system:
Turn the key to “
OFF”. Wait at least one
second, then turn the key back to “ON ”.
The traction control system indica-
tor/warning light should go off and the
system will be enabled. The engine
trouble warning light should go off after
the motorcycle reaches at least 20
km/h (12 mi/h). If the traction control
system indicator light/warning light
and/or engine trouble warning light still
remain on after resetting, the motorcy-
cle may still be ridden; however, have a
Yamaha dealer check the motorcycle
as soon as possible.
