Do not operate at speeds too fast for your
skills or the conditions.Speed limiters
For riders less experienced with this model, the
throttle lever housing is equipped with a vehicle
speed limiter. This speed limiter keeps the throttle
from fully opening, even when the throttle lever is
pushed to the maximum. Turning in the adjusting
screw limits the maximum engine power available
and decreases the maximum speed of the ATV.
Turning in the adjusting screw decreases top speed,
and turning it out increases top speed.
(See pages 4-3 and 4-4.)

This model also has an engine speed limiter plate
to limit the amount of engine power available.
WARNING
Always use the size and type tires specified in
the Owner’s Manual for this ATV on page 5-4.
Always maintain proper tire pressure as de-
scribed in the Owner’s Manual on page 5-5.
Use of improper tires on this ATV, or operation
of this ATV with improper or uneven tire pres-
sure, may cause loss of control, increasingyour risk of an accident.
WARNING
Always go at a speed that is proper for the ter-
rain, visibility and operating conditions, and
your experience. Operating this ATV at speeds
too fast for your skills or the conditions in-
creases your chances of losing control of theATV, which can result in an accident.
Yamaha recommends that all beginning riders start
off with the vehicle speed limiter turned in and the
engine speed limiter plate installed to limit the amount
of speed available while they learn. The vehicle speed
limiter may be gradually adjusted to increase maximum
speed as the beginner becomes more familiar with
operating the ATV. Parents should decide when to
adjust the ATV for more power as their youngster’s
riding skills improve. Once the ATV rider can operate
with skill at the top speed permitted by adjusting the
vehicle speed limiter alone, the engine speed limiter
plate can be removed. Since removal of this plate will
