Valve clearance adjustment
The 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.
EBU00304
Cam chain adjustment
The cam chain becomes loose with use, result-
ing in improper valve timing and engine noise.
To prevent this, the cam chain tensioner must
be adjusted regularly. This adjustment should be
left to a Yamaha service technician.

Troubleshooting
Although Yamaha machines receive a rigid
inspection before shipment from the factory,
trouble may occur during operation.
Any problem in the fuel, compression, or ignition
systems can cause poor starting and loss of
power. The troubleshooting chart describes a
quick, easy procedure for making checks. If
your machine requires any repair, take it to a
Yamaha dealer.
The skilled technicians at a Yamaha dealership
have the tools, experience, and know-how to
properly service your machine. Use only gen-
uine Yamaha parts on your machine. Imitation
parts may look like Yamaha parts, but they are
often inferior. Consequently, they have a short-
er service life and can lead to expensive repair
bills.

Do not smoke when checking the fuel sys-
tem. Fuel can ignite or explode, causing
severe injury or property damage. Make sure
there are no open flames or sparks in the
area, including pilot lights from water
heaters or furnaces.

B. STORAGE
Long term storage (60 days or more) of your
machine will require some preventive proce-
dures to guard against deterioration. After thor-
oughly cleaning the machine, prepare for stor-
age as follows:
1. Fill the fuel tank with fresh fuel and add
fuel stabilizer (if available).
NOTE:
Use of fuel stabilizer eliminates the need to
drain the fuel system. Consult a Yamaha dealer
if the fuel system is to be drained instead.
2. Remove the spark plug, pour about one
tablespoon of SAE 10W30 or 20W40
motor oil in the spark plug hole and rein-
stall the spark plug. Ground the spark plug
wire and turn the engine over several times
to coat the cylinder wall with oil.
3. Lubricate all control cables.
