1 tor and may limit control ability,
therefore, such accessories are
not recommended.
Use caution when adding electri-
cal accessories. If electrical acces-
sories exceed the capacity of the
motorcycle’s electrical system, an
electric failure could result, which
could cause a dangerous loss of
lights or engine power.
Gasoline and exhaust gas
GASOLINE IS HIGHLY FLAMMA-
BLE:
Always turn the engine off when
refueling.
Take care not to spill any gaso-
line on the engine or exhaust
system when refueling.
Never refuel while smoking or in
the vicinity of an open flame.
Never start the engine or let it run
for any length of time in a closed
area. The exhaust fumes are poi-
sonous and may cause loss of
consciousness and death within a
short time. Always operate your
motorcycle in an area that has ad-
equate ventilation.
Always turn the engine off before
leaving the motorcycle unattended
and remove the key from the main
switch. When parking the motor-
cycle, note the following:
The engine and exhaust system
may be hot, therefore, park the
motorcycle in a place where pe-
destrians or children are not like-
ly to touch these hot areas.
Do not park the motorcycle on a
slope or soft ground, otherwise it
may fall over.
Do not park the motorcycle near
a flammable source (e.g. a kero-
sene heater, or near an open
flame), otherwise it could catch
fire.
When transporting the motorcycle
in another vehicle, make sure that
it is kept upright and that the fuel
cock is turned to “ON” or “RES” (for
vacuum type) / “OFF” (for manual
type). If it should lean over, gaso-
line may leak out of the carburetor
or fuel tank.
If you should swallow any gaso-
line, inhale a lot of gasoline vapor,
or allow gasoline to get into youreyes, see your doctor immediately.
If any gasoline spills on your skin
or clothing, immediately wash the
affected area with soap and water
and change your clothes.

Immobilizer system This vehicle is equipped with an immo-
bilizer system to help prevent theft by
re-registering codes in the standard
keys. This system consists of the fol-
lowing.
a code re-registering key (with a
red bow)
two standard keys (with a black
bow) that can be re-registered with
new codes
a transponder (which is installed in
the code re-registering key)
an immobilizer unit
the ignitor unit
an immobilizer system indicator
light (See page 3-3.)
The key with the red bow is used to reg-
ister codes in each standard key. Since
re-registering is a difficult process, take
the vehicle along with all three keys to
a Yamaha dealer to have them re-reg-
istered. Do not use the key with the red
bow for driving. It should only be used
for re-registering the standard keys. Al-
ways use a standard key for driving.
CAUTION:
ECA11820
DO NOT LOSE THE CODE RE-
REGISTERING KEY! CONTACT
YOUR DEALER IMMEDIATELY
IF IT IS LOST! If the code re-reg-
istering key is lost, registering
new codes in the standard keys
is impossible. The standard
keys can still be used to start
the vehicle, however if code re-
registering is required (i.e., if a
new standard key is made or all
keys are lost) the entire immobi-
lizer system must be replaced.
Therefore, it is highly recom-mended to use either standard
key and keep the code re-regis-
tering key in a safe place.
Do not submerse any key in wa-
ter.
Do not expose any key to exces-
sively high temperatures.
Do not place any key close to
magnets (this includes, but not
limited to, products such as
speakers, etc.).
Do not place heavy items on any
key.
Do not grind any key or alter its
shape.
Do not disassemble the plastic
part of any key.
Do not put two keys of any im-
mobilizer system on the same
key ring.
Keep the standard keys as well
as keys of other immobilizer
systems away from this vehi-
cle’s code re-registering key.
Keep other immobilizer system
keys away from the main switch
as they may cause signal inter-ference.

bow) for regular use of the vehicle. To
minimize the risk of losing the code re-
registering key (red bow), keep it in a
safe place and only use it for code re-registering.

Oil level warning light “”
This warning light comes on when the
engine oil level is low.
The electrical circuit of the warning light
can be checked by turning the key to
“ON”.
If the warning light does not come on
for a few seconds, then go off, have a
Yamaha dealer check the electrical cir-
cuit.NOTE:Even if the oil level is sufficient, the
warning light may flicker when riding on
a slope or during sudden acceleration
or deceleration, but this is not a mal-function.
EAU11500
Engine trouble warning light “”
This warning light comes on or flashes
when an electrical circuit monitoring the
engine is defective. When this occurs,
have a Yamaha dealer check the self-
diagnosis system.
The electrical circuit of the warning light
can be checked by turning the key to
“ON”. If the warning light does not come
on for a few seconds, then go off, have
a Yamaha dealer check the electrical
circuit.
EAU27020
Immobilizer system indicator light
“”
The electrical circuit of the indicator
light can be checked by turning the key
to “ON”.
If the indicator light does not come on
for a few seconds, then go off, have a
Yamaha dealer check the electrical cir-
cuit.
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 24hours have passed, the indicator light
will stop flashing, however the immobi-
lizer system is still enabled.
NOTE:This model is also equipped with a self-
diagnosis device for the immobilizer
system. If the immobilizer system is de-
fective, the indicator light will start flash-
ing a pattern when the key is turned to
“ON”. When this occurs, have a
Yamaha dealer check the self-diagno-
sis system. However, if the indicator
light slowly flashes five times, and then
quickly flashes two times repeatedly,
this error could be caused by signal in-
terference. If this occurs, try the follow-ing.
1. Use the code re-registering key to
start the engine.NOTE:Make sure there are no other immobi-
lizer keys close to the main switch, and
do not keep more than one immobilizer
key on the same key ring! Immobilizer
system keys may cause signal interfer-
ence, which may prevent the enginefrom starting.

try starting the engine with the
standard keys.
3. If one or both of the standard keys
do not start the engine, take the
vehicle, the code re-registering
key and both standard keys to a
Yamaha dealer and have the stan-
dard keys re-registered.
EAU11731
Speedometer unit The speedometer unit is equipped with
a digital odometer and a tripmeter. The
speedometer shows riding speed. The
odometer shows the total distance trav-
eled. The tripmeter shows the distance
traveled since it was last set to zero.
Pushing the “TRIP” button switches the
display between the odometer mode
“ODO” and the tripmeter mode “TRIP”.
To reset the tripmeter, select it by push-
ing the “TRIP” button, and then push
the “TRIP” button again and hold it
down for at least one second. The trip-
meter can be used to estimate the dis-tance that can be traveled with a full
tank of fuel. This information will enable
you to plan future fuel stops.
NOTE:This model is not equipped with a ta-
chometer; however, it has a built-in
speed limiter, which prevents the en-
gine speed from exceeding approxi-
mately 6800 r/min and the vehicle
speed from exceeding approximately175 km/h (110 mi/h).
