3 The traction control system indicator
light flashes when traction control has
engaged. You may notice slight chang-
es in engine and exhaust sounds when
the system has engaged.
When the vehicle is turned on, the trac-
tion control system is turned on and
set to “TCS 1”. The traction control
system modes are as follows.
“TCS 1”
: Default mode
“TCS 2” : Sporty mode
This mode decreases traction control
system assist, allowing the rear wheel
to spin more freely than “TCS 1”.
“TCS OFF” : The traction control sys-
tem is turned off. The system may also
be automatically disabled in some rid-
ing conditions.
TIP
Use the mode “TCS OFF” to help free
the rear wheel if the motorcycle gets
stuck in mud, sand, or other soft sur-
faces.
NOTICE
ECA16801
Use only the specifie d tires. (See
pa ge 6-19.) Usin g different sized
tires will prevent the traction control
system from controllin g tire rotation
accurately.
Settin g the traction control system
WARNING
EWA15441
Be sure to stop the vehicle before
makin g any settin g chan ges to the
traction control system. Chan gin g
settin gs while ri din g can d istract the
operator an d increase the risk of an
acci dent.
The traction control system mode can
be changed only when the vehicle is
stopped.
 Push the “TCS” button to change
between modes “1” and “2”.
 Push the button for two seconds
to select “TCS OFF” and turn the
traction control system off. Push
the button again to return to the
previously selected mode.
Resetting
The traction control system will disable
in the following conditions:  excessive rear wheel spinning
 the front or rear wheel comes off
the ground while riding
 either wheel is rotated with the key
turned to “ON” (such as when per-
forming maintenance)
If the traction control system has been
disabled, both the traction control sys-
tem indicator light and the engine trou-
ble warning light come on.
Should this occur, try restting the sys-
tem as follows. 1. Stop the vehicle and turn the key to “OFF”.
2. Wait a few seconds and then turn the key back to “ON”.
3. The traction control system indi- cator light should turn off and the
system be enabled.
TIP
If the traction control system indicator
light remains on after resetting, the mo-
torcycle may still be ridden. However,
have a Yamaha dealer check the vehi-
cle as soon as possible.

Final gear oil
The final gear case must be checked
for oil leakage before each ride. If any
leakage is found, have a Yamaha deal-
er check and repair the vehicle. In ad-
dition, the final gear oil level must be
checked and the oil changed as fol-
lows at the intervals specified in the
periodic maintenance and lubrication
chart.
WARNING
EWA10371
 Make sure that no forei gn mate-
rial enters the final gear case.
 Make sure that no oil gets on
the tire or wheel.
To check the final g ear oil level
1. Place the vehicle on a level surfa- ce and hold it in an upright posi-
tion.
TIP
Make sure that the vehicle is posi-
tioned straight up when checking the
oil level. A slight tilt to the side can re-
sult in a false reading.
2. Remove the final gear oil filler boltand its gasket, and then check the
oil level in the final gear case.
TIP
The oil level should be at the brim of
the filler hole.
3. If the oil is below the brim of thefiller hole, add sufficient oil of the
recommended type to raise it to
the correct level.
4. Check the gasket for damage, and replace it if necessary.
5. Install the final gear oil filler bolt and its gasket, and then tighten
the bolt to the specified torque.
To chan ge the final g ear oil
1. Place an oil pan under the final gear case to collect the used oil.
2. Remove the final gear oil filler bolt, the final gear oil drain bolt and
their gasket to drain the oil from
the final gear case.
1. Final gear oil filler bolt
2. Gasket
3. Correct oil level

Spoke wheels
To maximize the performance, durabil-
ity, and safe operation of your vehicle,
note the following points regarding the
specified wheels.
 The wheel rims should be
checked for cracks, bends, warp-
age or other damage, and the
spokes for looseness or damage
before each ride. If any damage is
found, have a Yamaha dealer re-
place the wheel. Do not attempt
even the smallest repair to the
wheel. A deformed or cracked
wheel must be replaced.
 The wheel should be balanced
whenever either the tire or wheel
has been changed or replaced. An
unbalanced wheel can result in
poor performance, adverse han-
dling characteristics, and a short-
ened tire life.
EAU42851
Clutch lever
Since this model is equipped with a hy-
draulic clutch, adjusting the clutch le-
ver free play is not needed. However, it
is necessary to check the hydraulic
system for leakage before each ride. If
the clutch lever free play does become
excessive, and shifting becomes rough
or clutch slippage occurs, causing
poor acceleration, there may be air in
the clutch system. If there is air in the
hydraulic system, have a Yamaha deal-
er bleed the system before operating
the motorcycle.
