This shock absorber contains highly pressurized
nitrogen gas. Read and understand the following
information before handling the shock absorber. The
manufacturer cannot be held responsible for property
damage or personal injury that may result from improper
handling.
1. Do not tamper with or attempt to open the cylinderassembly.
2. Do not subject the shock absorber to an open flame or other high heat source. This may cause the unit
to explode due to excessive gas pressure.
3. Do not deform or damage the cylinder in any way. Cylinder damage will result in poor damping
performance.
4. Take your shock absorber to a Yamaha dealer for any service.
Rear shock absorber adjustment
The spring prelod of the rear shock absorber can be adjusted
to suit rider’s preference, weight and course condition.
Turn the adjusting ring in direction a to increase spring
preload and in direction b to decrease spring preload. Make
sure that the appropriate notch in the adjusting ring is aligned
with the position indicator on the rear shock absorber.

7-1 A. Cleaning
Frequent, thorough cleaning of your motorcycle will not only
enhance its appearance but will improve its general
performance and extend the useful life of many components.
1. Before cleaning the motorcycle:
a. Block off the end of the exhaust pipe to prevent water
entry; a plastic bag and strong rubber band may be
used.
b. Make sure the spark plug and all filler caps are properly
installed.
2. If the engine case is excessively greasy, apply
degreaser with a paint brush. Do not apply degreaser
to the chain, sprockets, or wheel axles.
3. Rinse the dirt and degreaser off with a garden hose,
Use only enough pressure to do the job.
CAUTION:
Excessive hose pressure may cause water seepage and
deterioration of wheel bearings, front fork, brakes,
transmission seals and electrical parts.
Many expensive repair bills have resulted from
improper high pressure detergent applications such as
those available in coin-operated car washers.
4. Once the majority of the dirt has been hosed off, wash
all surfaces with warm water and mild, detergent-type
soap. An old toothbrush or bottle brush is handy for
hard-to-get-at places.
5. Rinse the motorcycle off immediately with clean water
and dry all surfaces with a chamois, clean towel, or
soft absorbent cloth.
6. Dry the chain and lubricate it to prevent rust.
7. Clean the seat with a vinyl upholstery cleaner to keep
the cover pliable and glossy.
8. Automotive-type wax may be applied to all painted and
chrome-plated surfaces. Avoid combination cleaner-
waxes. Many contain abrasives which may mar the paint
or protective finish. When finished, start the engine and
let it idle for several minutes.
