Hydraulic brake and clutch systems
• After disassembling the brake or clutch master cylinders, caliper cylinders or clutch release cylinder, always change
the fluid. Regularly check the brake and clutch fluid levels and fill the reservoirs as required.
• Replace the oil seals on the inner parts of the brake or clutch master cylinders, caliper cylinders and clutch release
cylinder every two years.

Engine oil and oil filter
cartridge 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 engine oil level
1. Place the motorcycle on a level
surface and hold it in an upright
position.NOTE:_ Make sure that the motorcycle is posi-
tioned straight up when checking the oil
level. 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, and then check the oil level
through the check window located
at the bottom-right side of the
crankcase.
NOTE:_ The engine oil should be between the
minimum and maximum level marks. _4. If the engine oil is below the mini-
mum level mark, add sufficient oil
of the recommended type to raise
it to the correct level.To change the engine oil (with or
without oil filter cartridge replace-
ment)
1. Remove cowling A. (See page 6-5
for cowling removal and installa-
tion procedures.)
2. Start the engine, warm it up for
several minutes, and then turn it
off.
3. Place an oil pan under the engine
to collect the used oil.1. Engine oil level check window

and drain bolt to drain the oil from
the crankcase.
NOTE:_ Skip steps 5–7 if the oil filter cartridge is
not being replaced. _
5. Remove the oil filter cartridge with
an oil filter wrench.NOTE:_ An oil filter wrench is available at a
Yamaha dealer. _
6. Apply a thin coat of engine oil to
the O-ring of the new oil filter car-
tridge.NOTE:_ Make sure that the O-ring is properly
seated. _

67. Install the new oil filter cartridge,
and then tighten it to the specified
torque with a torque wrench.
8. Install the engine oil drain bolt, and
then tighten it to the specified
torque.9. Add the specified amount of the
recommended engine oil, and
then install and tighten the oil filler
cap.
EC000072
CAUTION:_ l
In order to prevent clutch slip-
page (since the engine oil also
lubricates the clutch), do not
mix any chemical additives with
the oil or use oils of a higher
grade than “CD”. In addition, do
not use oils labeled “ENERGY
CONSERVING II” or higher.
l
Make sure that no foreign mate-
rial enters the crankcase.
_10. Start the engine, and then let it idle
for several minutes while checking
it for oil leakage. If oil is leaking,
immediately turn the engine off
and check for the cause.NOTE:_ After the engine is started, the engine
oil level warning light should go off if the
oil level is sufficient. _

64. Add coolant or distilled water to
raise the coolant to the specified
level, close the coolant reservoir
cap, and then install the rider seat.
EC000080
CAUTION:_ l
If coolant is not available, use
distilled water or soft tap water
instead. Do not use hard water
or salt water since it is harmful
to the engine.
l
If water has been used instead
of coolant, replace it with cool-
ant as soon as possible, other-
wise the engine may not be
sufficiently cooled and the cool-
ing system will not be protected
against frost and corrosion.
l
If water has been added to the
coolant, have a Yamaha dealer
check the antifreeze content of
the coolant as soon as possible,
otherwise the effectiveness of
the coolant will be reduced.

WARNING
_ Never attempt to remove the radia-
tor cap when the engine is hot. _NOTE:_ l
The radiator fan is automatically
switched on or off according to the
coolant temperature in the radia-
tor.

If the engine overheats, see
page 6-42 for further instructions.

Cleaning the air filter element The air filter element should be cleaned
at the intervals specified in the periodic
maintenance and lubrication chart.
Clean the air filter element more fre-
quently if you are riding in unusually
wet or dusty areas.
1. Remove the rider seat. (See page
3-11 for rider seat removal and in-
stallation procedures.)
2. Remove cowling B from both
sides. (See page 6-5 for cowling
removal and installation proce-
dures.)
3. Remove the fuel tank bolts. Coolant reservoir capacity:
