Tips for re ducin g fuel con-
sumption
Fuel consumption depends largely on
your riding style. Consider the follow-
ing tips to reduce fuel consumption:
Shift up swiftly, and avoid high en-
gine speeds during acceleration.
Do not rev the engine while shift-
ing down, and avoid high engine
speeds with no load on the en-
gine.
Turn the engine off instead of let-
ting it idle for an extended length
of time (e.g., in traffic jams, at traf-
fic lights or at railroad crossings).
EAU16842
Engine break-in
There is never a more important period
in the life of your engine than the period
between 0 and 1600 km (1000 mi). For
this reason, you should read the fol-
lowing material carefully.
Since the engine is brand new, do not
put an excessive load on it for the first
1600 km (1000 mi). The various parts in
the engine wear and polish themselves
to the correct operating clearances.
During this period, prolonged full-throt-
tle operation or any condition that
might result in engine overheating
must be avoided.
EAU17085
0–1000 km (0–600 mi)
Avoid prolonged operation above 8300
r/min. NOTICE: After 1000 km (600
mi) of operation, the en gine oil must
b e chan ged an d the oil filter car-
tri dge or element replace d.
[ECA10303]
1000–1600 km (600–1000 mi)
Avoid prolonged operation above 9900
r/min.

TIP
Air filter
• This model’s air filter uses a disposable oil-coated paper element. This el- ement cannot be cleaned with compressed air, doing so will only damage
it.
• The air filter element needs to be replaced more frequently when riding in unusually wet or dusty areas.
Hydraulic brake service
• Regularly check the front and rear brake fluid levels. Replenish if neces- sary.
• Every two years replace the rear brake master cylinder, the internal com- ponents of the front brake master cylinder, the brake calipers, and change
the brake fluid.
• Replace the brake hoses every four years or sooner if cracked or damaged.
26 *Coolin g system • Check coolant level and vehicle
for coolant leakage. √√√√√
• Change. Every 3 years

En gine oil an d oil filter car-
tri dg e
The engine oil level should be checked
before each ride. In addition, the oil
must be changed and the oil filter car-
tridge replaced at the intervals speci-
fied in the periodic maintenance and
lubrication chart.
To check the en gine oil level
1. Place the vehicle on a level surfa- ce and hold it in an upright posi-
tion. A slight tilt to the side can
result in a false reading.
2. Start the engine, warm it up for several minutes, and then turn it
off.
3. Wait a few minutes until the oil set- tles.
4. Remove the engine oil dipstick and wipe it clean, insert it back
into the hole (without screwing it
in), and then remove it again to
check the oil level.
TIP
The engine oil should be between the
minimum and maximum level marks.
5. Check the dipstick O-ring fordamage, and replace it if neces-
sary.
6. If the engine oil is at or below the minimum level mark, remove the
engine oil filler cap, and then add
sufficient oil of the recommended
type to raise it to the correct level.
7. Check the filler cap O-ring for damage, and replace it if neces-
sary.
8. Insert and tighten the engine oil dipstick, and then install and tight-
en the oil filler cap.
To chan ge the en gine oil (with or
without oil filter cartridge replace-
ment) 1. Place the vehicle on a level surfa- ce.
2. Remove cowlings A and B. (See page 7-7.)
3. Start the engine, warm it up for several minutes, and then turn it
off.
4. Place an oil pan under the engine to collect the used oil.

5. Remove the engine oil filler cap,
the engine oil drain bolt and its
gasket to drain the oil from the
crankcase.
TIP
Skip steps 6–12 if the oil filter cartridge
is not being replaced.
6. Remove the shift arm bolt, andthen pull the shift arm off the shift
shaft.
TIP
If necessary, disconnect the shift
switch and connecting rod by loosen-
ing the bottom nut.
7. Remove the fuel tank overflowhose from the guides.
8. Remove the oil filter cartridge with an oil filter wrench.
TIP
An oil filter wrench is available at a
Yamaha dealer.
9. Apply a thin coat of clean engine oil to the O-ring of the new oil filter
cartridge.

TIP
Make sure that the O-ring is properly
seated.
10. Install the new oil filter cartridge
with an oil filter wrench, and then
tighten it to the specified torque
with a torque wrench.
11. Install the fuel tank overflow hose into the guides, then place them in
their original position.
12. Install the shift arm by aligning the slot in the shift arm with the mark
on the shift shaft and installing the
shift arm bolt, then tightening it to
the specified torque. NOTICE: Be
sure to ali gn the slot an d mark to ensure proper shiftin
g. If the
slot an d mark are not ali gne d,
the shift arm will not move cor-
rectly an d you may not be ab le
to shift up or down.
