While warming up, check for oil leakage. If oil
leakage is found, stop the engine immediately, and
check for the cause.
g. Stop the engine and check the oil level.
After replacing the engine oil, be sure to check the oil
pressure.

1. Remove the check bolt 1 in the cylinder head.
2. Start the engine and keep it idling until oil flows out
of the bleed hole. If no oil comes out after one
minute, turn off the engine immediately so it will
not seize. In such a case go to the nearest Yamaha
dealer or other qualified mechanic for repairs.
3. After checking, tighten the check bolt to the
specified torque.

NOTE:
Before checking the throttle cable free play, the engine
idling speed should be adjusted.
The throttle cable should have an specified free play in the
turning direction at the grip flange. If the free play is incorrect,
follow the instructions below.
1. Loosen the locknut.
2. Turning the adjuster to:
Direction A : increase free play
Direction B: reduces free play
3. Tighten the locknut.

1. Loosen the rear brake pedal free play adjusting nut.
2. Loosen the axle nut.
3. Loosen the chain adjusting locknuts on each chain
puller. To tighten the chain, turn the chain adjusting nuts
in direction a .To loosen the chain turn the chain
adjusting nuts in direction b and push the wheel
forward. Turn each chain adjusting nut exactly the same
amount to maintain correct axle alignment. There are
marks on each chain puller. Use these marks to align
the rear wheel.Too little chain slack will overload the engine and other vital
parts. Keep the slack within the specified limits.
To maintain correct axle alignment, Ensure the notch on
the adjuster is on the same mark on left and right side
4. After adjusting, be sure to tighten each chain adjusting
locknut. The tighten the axle nut to the specified torque
Axle nut torque:
91 N.m (9.1 Kgf.m, 66 lbf.ft)
Locknut torque:

Throttle cable and grip lubrication
The throttle twist grip assembly should be greased at the
time the cable is lubricated, since the grip must be removed
to get at the end of the throttle cable.
After removing the screws, hold the end of the cable up in
the air and put in several drops of lubricant. With the throttle
grip disassembled, coat the metal surface of the grip
assembly with a suitable all-purpose grease.Brake and shift pedals
Lubricate the pivoting parts.
RECOMMENDED LUBRICANT:
Engine oil SAE 20W50
Brake and clutch levers
Lubricate the pivoting parts.
RECOMMENDED LUBRICANT:
Engine oil SAE 20W50
Sidestand
Lubricate the pivoting parts. Check to see that the sidestand
moves up and down smoothly.
RECOMMENDED LUBRICANT:
Engine oil SAE 20W50
WARNING:
If the sidestand does not move smoothly, consult a
Yamaha dealer.
