clutch may stay engaged, so a shuddering
sensation may be felt when you come to a
stop. Stop the vehicle on level ground safely
off the main trail, and have the YCC-S system
serviced by a Yamaha dealer before further
operation.TIPIf shifting into neutral is impossible using the
shift paddles and drive select lever, proceed
as follows if it is necessary to move the vehi-
cle after it has stopped. 1. Turn the key to “ ” (off).
2. Remove panel B (page 8-10).
3. While rocking the vehicle back and forth, push the shift rod and shift arm pivot
downward (or upward if the transmission

TIPSpring tension helps return the lever to the
released position.
 If you drive the vehicle with the parking
brake engaged, a buzzer will sound. EBU36632YCC-S systemThis vehicle is equipped with the Yamaha
Chip Controlled-Shift system (YCC-S) with
AUTO DOWNSHIFT. YCC-S allows the driver to operate the man-
ual transmission without having to operate
the clutch. AUTO DOWNSHIFT automatically
shifts the transmission into first gear when
coming to a stop under normal conditions.
The transmission is operated using the drive
select lever and the shift paddles. The drive
select lever is used to shift the transmission
into forward drive (first gear), neutral, and re-
verse gear. The shift paddles are used to shift
through the forward gears.
When the drive select lever or shift paddles
are moved, a signal is sent to the MCU (motor
control unit) which disengages the clutch, the
ECU (engine control unit) adjusts ignition tim-
ing, the gear shift is made, and then the clutch
is re-engaged once the engine is running at
proper speed. Clutch engagement is con-
trolled by the MCU according to engine
speed and other driving conditions.1. Release button
