Safety information
EAU1028C
Be a Responsible Owner
As the vehicle’s owner, you are respon-
sible for the safe and proper operation
of your motorcycle.
Motorcycles are single-track vehicles.
Their safe use and operation are de-
pendent upon the use of proper riding
techniques as well as the expertise of
the operator. Every operator should
know the following requirements before
riding this motorcycle.
He or she should:
Obtain thorough instructions from
a competent source on all aspects
of motorcycle operation.
Observe the warnings and mainte-
nance requirements in this Own-
er’s Manual.
Obtain qualified training in safe
and proper riding techniques.
Obtain professional technical ser-
vice as indicated in this Owner’s
Manual and/or when made neces-
sary by mechanical conditions.
Never operate a motorcycle with-
out proper training or instruction. Take a training course. Beginners
should receive training from a cer-
tified instructor. Contact an autho-
rized motorcycle dealer to find out
about the training courses nearest
you.
Safe Riding
Perform the pre-operation checks each
time you use the vehicle to make sure it
is in safe operating condition. Failure to
inspect or maintain the vehicle properly
increases the possibility of an accident
or equipment damage. See page 5-1
for a list of pre-operation checks.
This motorcycle is designed to car-
ry the operator and a passenger.
The failure of motorists to detect
and recognize motorcycles in traf-
fic is the predominating cause of
automobile/motorcycle accidents.
Many accidents have been caused
by an automobile driver who did
not see the motorcycle. Making
yourself conspicuous appears to
be very effective in reducing the
chance of this type of accident.
Therefore:
Wear a brightly colored jacket. Use extra caution when you are
approaching and passing
through intersections, since in-
tersections are the most likely
places for motorcycle accidents
to occur.
Ride where other motorists can see you. Avoid riding in another
motorist’s blind spot.
Never maintain a motorcycle without proper knowledge. Con-
tact an authorized motorcycle
dealer to inform you on basic
motorcycle maintenance. Cer-
tain maintenance can only be
carried out by certified staff.
Many accidents involve inexperi-
enced operators. In fact, many op-
erators who have been involved in
accidents do not even have a cur-
rent motorcycle license.
Make sure that you are qualifiedand that you only lend your mo-
torcycle to other qualified opera-
tors.
Know your skills and limits. Staying within your limits may
help you to avoid an accident.
We recommend that you prac-

YRC (Yamaha Ride Control)Yamaha Ride Control is a system that
incorporates numerous sensors and
controls to support an improved riding
experience. The vehicle senses and
can react to forces along the longitudi-
nal (front-to-back), lateral (left-to-right),
and vertical (up-and-down) axes. Lean
angle and G-force accelerations are
also detected. This information is pro-
cessed multiple times a second and the
related physical systems are automati-
cally adjusted as necessary. The func-
tions listed below represent individual
YRC items which can be turned on/off
or adjusted to suit various riders and
riding conditions. For setting details see
“MENU screen” on page 4-15.
WARNING
EWA18220
The Yamaha Ride Control (YRC) sys-
tem is not a substitute for the use of
proper riding techniques or the ex-
pertise of the operator. This system
cannot prevent loss of control
caused by rider errors such as trav-
eling faster than warranted by road
and traffic condition s, including lossof traction due to excessive speed
when entering turns, when acceler-
ating hard at a sharp lean angle, or
while braking, and it cannot prevent
front wheel slipping or lift (“wheel-
ies”). As with any motorcycle, al-
ways ride within in your limits, be
aware of surrounding conditions,
and ride appropriately for those con-
ditions. Become thoroughly familiar
with the way the motorcycle handles
with various YRC settings before at-
tempting more advanced maneu-
vers.
PWR
The power delivery mode system con-
sists of four different control maps
which regulate throttle valve opening in
relation to the degree of throttle grip op-
eration, thus providing you with a selec-
tion of modes to fit your preferences
and the riding environment.
TCS
The traction control system helps main-
tain traction when accelerating. If sen-
sors detect that the rear wheel is
starting to slip (uncontrolled spinning),
the traction control system assists by
regulating engine power as needed un-
til traction is restored. The traction con-
trol system indicator/warning light
flashes to let the rider know that traction
control has engaged.
This traction control system automati-

cally adjusts accordin
g to the vehicle’s
lean angle. To maximize acceleration,
when the vehicle is upright a less
amount of traction control is applied.
When cornering, a greater amount of
traction control is applied.
TIP
The traction control system may
engage when the vehicle travels
over a bump.
You may notice slight changes in
engine and exhaust sounds when
the traction control or other YRC
systems engage.
When TCS is turned off, SCS,
LCS, and LIF are also turned offautomatically.
WARNING
EWA15432
The traction control system is not a
substitute for riding appropriately
for the conditions. Traction control
cannot prevent loss of traction due
to excessive speed when entering
turns, when accelerating hard at a
sharp lean angle, or while braking,
and cannot prevent front wheel slip-
ping. As with any motorcycle, ap-
proach surfaces that may be
slippery with caution and avoid es-pecially slippery surfaces.
When the key is turned to “ON”, the
traction control system automatically
turns on. The traction control system
can be turned on or off manually only
when the key is in the “ON” position and
the motorcycle is stopped.TIPTurn the traction control system off to
help free the rear wheel if the motorcy-
cle gets stuck in mud, sand, or othersoft surfaces.
NOTICE
ECA16801
Use only the specified tires. (See
page 7-20.) Using different sized
tires will prevent the traction control
system from controlling tire rotationaccurately.
SCS
The slide control system regulates en-
gine power output when a sideward
slide is detected in the rear wheel. It ad-
justs power output based on data from
the IMU. This system supports the TCS
to contribute to a smoother ride.
LCS
The launch control system helps the
rider achieve smooth and swift
launches from the starting grid. It
keeps engine speed from rising above
10,000 r/min even when the throttle
grip is fully turned. The LCS regulates
engine power output in conjunction
with the TCS and LIF systems for op-
timal traction and reduced wheel lift.
