Drive chain slack check NOTE:
Spin the wheel several times and find the tightest position
of the chain. Check and/or adjust the chain slack while it is
in this tightest position.
To check the chain slack the motorcycle must be held
straight up with both wheels on the ground and without rider.
Check the slack at the position shown in the illustration.
Normal slack is approximately 20 ~ 30 mm ( 0.8 ~ 1.2 in). If
the slack exceeds 30 mm ( 1.2 in), adjust.

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:
15 N.m (1.5 Kgf.m, 11 lbf.ft)

6-21 Drive chain lubrication
The chain consists of many parts which work with each
other. If the chain is not maintained properly, it will wear out
quickly. Therefore, the chain must be serviced regularly.
This service is especially necessary when riding in dusty
areas.
1. Use Yamaha Chain and Cable Lube or any
brands of spray-type chain lubricant. First,
remove all dirt and mud from the chain with a
brush or cloth, then spray lubricant between both
rows of side plates and on all center rollers. The
chain should be lubricated every 500 km (300 mi).
2. To clean the chain, remove it from the machine,
dip it in solvent, and clean out as much dirt as
possible. Take the chain out of the solvent and
dry it. Immediately lubricate the chain to prevent
it from rusting.Cable inspection and lubrication
Damage to the outer housing of cables may allow
internal rusting and cause interfere with cable
movement. Replace damaged cables as soon as
possible to prevent unsafe conditions.
Lubricate the inner cable and the cable end. If it does not
operate smoothly, ask a Yamaha dealer to replace them.
RECOMMENDED LUBRICANT:
Engine oil SAE 20W50

BATTERY BREATHER HOSE ROUTING
YAMAHA Battery
Check the level of the battery electrolyte and make sure
that the terminals are tight. Add distilled water if the
electrolyte level is low.
1. When inspecting the battery, make sure that the
battery breather pipe routing is correct. If the
breather pipe touches painted parts, or if its end is
in such a position that may cause gas or electrolyte
leakage, it may cause structural or esthetic
damages to the motorcycle.
2. Take care not to spill battery fluid on the chain.
Battery fluid may weaken the chain causing shorter
chain life and possibly result in an accident.

7-1 CLEANING AND STORAGE
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.
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.

7-2 B. STORAGE
Long term storage (30 days or more) of your machine will
require some preventive procedures to guard against
deterioration. After thoroughly cleaning the machine,
prepare for storage as follows:
1. Drain the fuel tank, fuel lines, and carburetor float
bowl(s).
2. Remove the spark plug(s), pour about one tablespoon
of SAE 20W50 motor oil in the spark plug hole(s) and
reinstall the spark plug(s).
Kick the engine over several times (with the
ignition off) to coat the cylinder walls with oil.
3. Remove the drive chain. Clean it thoroughly with
solvent and lubricate it.
Reinstall the chain or store it in a plastic bag
(tied to frame for safe-keeping).
4. Lubricate all control cables.
5. Block up the frame to raise both wheels off the
ground.
6. Tie a plastic bag over the exhaust pipe outlet to
prevent moisture from entering.7. If storing in a humid or salt-air atmosphere, coat
all exposed metal surfaces with a light film of
oil. Do not apply oil to any rubber parts or the
seat cover.
8. Remove the battery and charge it. Store it in a dry place
and recharge it once a month. Do not store the battery
in an excessively warm or cold place (less than 0∫C
(30∫F) or more than 30∫C (90∫F).
NOTE:
Make any necessary repairs before storing the machine.
