mation before handling the shock
absorber. The manufacturer cannot
be held responsible for property
damage or personal injury that may
result from improper handling.l
Do not tamper with or attempt to
open the cylinder assembly.
l
Do not subject the shock ab-
sorber to an open flame or other
high heat source. This may

SidestandThis model is equipped with an ignition
circuit cut-off system. The motorcycle
must not be ridden when the sidestand
is down. The sidestand is located on
the left side of the frame. (Refer to
page 5-1 for an explanation of this sys-
tem.)
EW000044
WARNING
@ This motorcycle must not be operat-
ed with the sidestand in the down
position. If the stand is not properly
retracted, it could contact the
ground and distract the operator, re-
sulting in a possible loss of control.
Yamaha has designed into this
motorcycle a lockout system to as-
sist the operator in fulfilling the re-
sponsibility of retracting the
sidestand. Please check carefully
the operating instructions listed be-
low and if there is any indication of a
malfunction, return the motorcycle
to a Yamaha dealer immediately for
repair. @

6-PERIODIC MAINTENANCE AND MINOR REPAIR
EAU00464
Periodic inspection, adjustment and lu-
brication will keep your motorcycle in
the safest and most efficient condition
possible. Safety is an obligation of the
motorcycle owner. The maintenance
and lubrication schedule chart should
be considered strictly as a guide to
general maintenance and lubrication
intervals. YOU MUST TAKE INTO
CONSIDERATION THAT WEATHER,
TERRAIN, GEOGRAPHICAL LOCA-
TIONS, AND A VARIETY OF INDIVID-
UAL USES ALL TEND TO DEMAND
THAT EACH OWNER ALTER THIS
TIME SCHEDULE TO SHORTER IN-
TERVALS TO MATCH THE ENVI-RONMENT. The most important points
of motorcycle inspection, adjustment,
and lubrication are explained in the fol-
lowing pages.

WARNING
@ If you are not familiar with motor-
cycle service, this work should be
done by a Yamaha dealer. @

Carburetor adjustmentThe carburetor is a vital part of the en-
gine and requires very sophisticated
adjustment. Most adjustments should
be left to a Yamaha dealer who has the
professional knowledge and experi-
ence to do so. However, the following
may be serviced by the owner as part
of routine maintenance.
EC000094
CAUTION:@ The carburetor was set at the
Yamaha factory after many tests. If
the settings are changed, poor en-
gine performance and damage may
result. @

Idle speed adjustmentNOTE:@ A diagnostic tachometer must be used
for this procedure. @1. Attach the tachometer. Start the
engine and warm it up for a few
minutes at approximately 1,000 to
2,000 r/min. Occasionally rev the
engine to 4,000 to 4,400 r/min.
The engine is warm when it quick-
ly responds to the throttle.

speed by adjusting the throttle
stop screw. Turn the screw in di-
rection

speed and in direction
b to de-
crease engine speed.
NOTE:@ If the specified idle speed cannot be
obtained by performing the above ad-
justment, consult a Yamaha dealer. @

Throttle cable free play
inspectionThere should be a free play of 4 ~
6 mm at the throttle grip. If the free play
is incorrect, ask a Yamaha dealer to
make this adjustment.
EAU00637
Valve clearance adjustmentThe correct valve clearance changes
with use, resulting in improper fuel/air
supply or engine noise. To prevent this,
the valve clearance must be adjusted
regularly. This adjustment however,
should be left to a professional
Yamaha service technician.

TiresTo ensure maximum performance,
long service, and safe operation, note
the following:
Tire air pressure
Always check and adjust the tire pres-
sure before operating the motorcycle.
EWA00011
WARNING
@ Tire inflation pressure should be
checked and adjusted when the
temperature of the tire equals the
ambient air temperature. Tire infla-
tion pressure must be adjusted ac-
cording to total weight of cargo,
rider, passenger, and accessories
(windshield, saddlebags, etc. if ap-
proved for this model). @CE-40EEWA00012
WARNING
@ Proper loading of your motorcycle
is important for several characteris-
tics of your motorcycle, such as
handling, braking, performance and
safety. Do not carry loosely packed
items that can shift. Securely pack
your heaviest items close to the
center of the motorcycle, and dis-
tribute the weight evenly from side
to side. Properly adjust the suspen-
sion for your load, and check the
condition and pressure of your tires.
NEVER OVERLOAD YOUR MOTOR-
CYCLE. Make sure the total weight
of the cargo, rider, passenger, and
accessories (windshield, saddle-
bags, etc. if approved for this model)
does not exceed the maximum load
of the motorcycle. Operation of an
overloaded motorcycle could cause
tire damage, an accident, or even in-
jury. @

6 Tire inspection
Always check the tires before operating
the motorcycle. If center tread depth
reaches the limit as shown, if the tire
has a nail or glass fragments in it, or if
the side wall is cracked, contact a
Yamaha dealer immediately and have
the tire replaced.
CE-10E
CE-11ENOTE:@ These limits may be different by regula-
tion from country to country. If so, con-
form to the limits specified by the
regulations of your own country. @
EAU00681
WARNING
@ l
Operating the motorcycle with
excessively worn tires decrease
riding stability and can lead to
loss of control. Have excessive-
ly worn tires replaced by a
Yamaha dealer immediately.
Brakes, tires, and related wheel
parts replacement should be
left to a Yamaha Service Techni-
cian.
l
Patching a punctured tube is
not recommended. If it is abso-
lutely necessary to do so, use
great care and replace the tube
as soon as possible with a good
quality replacement.

WheelsTo ensure maximum performance,
long service, and safe operation, note
the following:l
Always inspect the wheels before
a ride. Check for cracks, bends or
warpage of the wheel. Be sure the
spokes are tight and undamaged.
If any abnormal condition exists in
a wheel, consult a Yamaha dealer.
Do not attempt even small repairs
to the wheel. If a wheel is de-
formed or cracked, it must be re-
placed.
l
Tires and wheels should be bal-
anced whenever either one is
changed or replaced. Failure to
have a wheel balanced can result
in poor performance, adverse han-
dling characteristics, and short-
ened tire life.
l
Ride at moderate speeds after
changing a tire since the tire sur-
face must first be broken in for it to
develop its optimal characteristics.

Clutch lever free play
adjustmentThe clutch lever free play should be ad-
justed to 10 ~ 15 mm.
