Fuel level warning light “ ”
This warning light comes on when the
fuel level drops below approximately
4.5 L. When this occurs, refuel as soon
as possible.
The electrical circuit of the warning light
can be checked according to the fol-
lowing procedure.
1. Set the engine stop switch to “ ”
and turn the key to “ON”.
2. Shift the transmission into the neu-
tral position or pull the clutch lever. 3. Push the start switch. If the warn-
ing light does not come on, have a
Yamaha dealer check the electri-
cal circuit.
NOTE:_ This model is equipped with a self-di-
agnosis device for the fuel level warn-
ing light circuit. (See page 3-4 for an
explanation of the self-diagnosis de-
vice.) _
EAU00057
Turn signal indicator light “ ”
This indicator light flashes when the
turn signal switch is pushed to the left
or right.
EAU00063
High beam indicator light “ ”
This indicator light comes on when the

on.
EAU00095
Speedometer unit The speedometer unit is equipped with
a speedometer, an odometer and a
tripmeter. The speedometer shows
riding speed. The odometer shows the
total distance traveled. The tripmeter
shows the distance traveled since it
was last set to zero with the reset knob.
The tripmeter can be used to estimate
the distance that can be traveled with a
full tank of fuel. This information will en-
able you to plan future fuel stops.

the following error code:
CB-11E
Use the chart below to identify the
faulty electrical circuit.CB-22EIf the tachometer displays such an er-
ror code, note the circuit-specific num-
ber of r/min, and then have a Yamaha
dealer check the motorcycle.

5-OPERATION AND IMPORTANT RIDING POINTS
EAU00373
WARNING
_ l
Become thoroughly familiar
with all operating controls and
their functions before riding.
Consult a Yamaha dealer re-
garding any control or function
that you do not thoroughly un-
derstand.
l
Never start the engine or oper-
ate it in a closed area for any
length of time. Exhaust fumes
are poisonous, and inhaling
them can cause loss of con-
sciousness and death within a
short time. Always make sure
that there is adequate ventila-
tion.
l
Before starting out, make sure
that the sidestand is up. If the
sidestand is not raised com-
pletely, it could contact the
ground and distract the opera-
tor, resulting in a possible loss
of control.
_
EAU03818*
Starting the engine In order for the ignition circuit cut-off
system to enable starting, one of the
following conditions must be met:l
The transmission is in the neutral
position.
l
The transmission is in gear with
the clutch lever pulled and the
sidestand up.
EW000054
WARNING
_ l
Before starting the engine,
check the function of the igni-
tion circuit cut-off system ac-
cording to the procedure
described on page 3-19.
l
Never ride with the sidestand
down.
_
1. Turn the key to “ON” and make
sure that the engine stop switch is
set to “ ”.
EC000035
CAUTION:_ If the fuel level warning light comes
on, check the fuel level, and, if nec-
essary, refuel as soon as possible. _2. Shift the transmission into the neu-
tral position.NOTE:_ When the transmission is in the neutral
position, the neutral indicator light
should be on, otherwise have a
Yamaha dealer check the electrical cir-
cuit. _3. Turn the starter (choke) on and
completely close the throttle. (See
page 3-10 for starter (choke) oper-
ation.)
4. Start the engine by pushing the
start switch.

NOTE:_ If the engine fails to start, release the
start switch, wait a few seconds, and
then try again. Each starting attempt
should be as short as possible to pre-
serve the battery. Do not crank the en-
gine more than 10 seconds on any one
attempt. _
EC000038
CAUTION:_ l
The oil level warning light and
fuel level warning light should
come on when the start switch
is pushed, and they should go
off when the start switch is re-
leased.
l
If the oil level warning light flick-
ers or remains on after starting,
immediately stop the engine,
and then check the engine oil
level and the vehicle for oil leak-
age. If necessary, add engine
oil, and then check the warning
light again. If the warning light
does not come on when push-
ing the start switch, or if it doesnot go off after starting with suf-
ficient engine oil, have a
Yamaha dealer check the elec-
trical circuit.
l
If the fuel level warning light re-
mains on after starting, stop the
engine, and then check the fuel
level. If necessary, refuel as
soon as possible, and then
check the warning light again. If
the warning light does not come
on when pushing the start
switch, or if it does not go off af-
ter starting with sufficient fuel,
have a Yamaha dealer check the
electrical circuit.
_5. After starting the engine, move the
starter (choke) lever back halfway.
ECA00045
CAUTION:_ For maximum engine life, never ac-
celerate hard when the engine is
cold! _
6. When the engine is warm, turn the
starter (choke) off.NOTE:_ The engine is warm when it responds
normally to the throttle with the starter
(choke) turned off. _

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. _

CAUTION:_ If the oil level warning light flickers
or remains on, immediately turn the
engine off and have a Yamaha deal-
er check the vehicle. _11. Turn the engine off, and then
check the oil level and correct it if
necessary.
12. Install the cowling.
EAU03947*
Checking the coolant levelThe coolant level should be checked
before each ride. In addition, the cool-
ant must be changed at the intervals
specified in the periodic maintenance
and lubrication chart.
1. Place the motorcycle on a level
surface and hold it in an upright
position.NOTE:_ l
The coolant level must be checked
on a cold engine since the level
varies with engine temperature.
l
Make sure that the motorcycle is
positioned straight up when
checking the coolant level. A slight
tilt to the side can result in a false
reading.
_
2. Check the coolant level in the
coolant reservoir.NOTE:_ The coolant should be between the
minimum and maximum level marks. _3. If the coolant is at or below the
minimum level mark, remove the
rider seat (See page 3-11 for seat
removal and installation proce-
dures.), and then open the coolant
reservoir cap.1. Maximum level mark
