SAFETY INFORMATIONEAU10283

Be a Responsible OwnerAs the vehicle’s owner, you are respon-sible for the safe and proper operationof your motorcycle.Motorcycles are single-track vehicles.Their safe use and operation are de-pendent upon the use of proper ridingtechniques as well as the expertise ofthe operator. Every operator shouldknow the following requirements beforeriding this motorcycle.He or she should:

� Obtain thorough instructions froma competent source on all aspectsof motorcycle operation.

� Observe the warnings and mainte-nance requirements in this Own-er’s Manual.

� Obtain qualified training in safeand proper riding techniques.

� Obtain professional technical ser-vice as indicated in this Owner’sManual and/or when made neces-sary by mechanical conditions.

Safe RidingPerform the pre-operation checks eachtime you use the vehicle to make sure itis in safe operating condition. Failure toinspect or maintain the vehicle properlyincreases the possibility of an accidentor equipment damage. See page 5-1for a list of pre-operation checks.

� This motorcycle is designed to car-ry the operator and a passenger.

� The failure of motorists to detectand recognize motorcycles in traf-fic is the predominating cause ofautomobile/motorcycle accidents.Many accidents have been causedby an automobile driver who didnot see the motorcycle. Makingyourself conspicuous appears tobe very effective in reducing thechance of this type of accident.Therefore:• Wear a brightly colored jacket.• Use extra caution when you are

approaching and passingthrough intersections, since in-tersections are the most likelyplaces for motorcycle accidentsto occur.

• Ride where other motorists cansee you. Avoid riding in anothermotorist’s blind spot.

� Many accidents involve inexperi-enced operators. In fact, many op-erators who have been involved inaccidents do not even have a cur-rent motorcycle license.• Make sure that you are qualified

and that you only lend your mo-torcycle to other qualified opera-tors.

• Know your skills and limits.Staying within your limits mayhelp you to avoid an accident.

• We recommend that you prac-tice riding your motorcyclewhere there is no traffic until youhave become thoroughly famil-iar with the motorcycle and all ofits controls.

� Many accidents have been causedby error of the motorcycle opera-tor. A typical error made by the op-erator is veering wide on a turn


SAFETY INFORMATION

due to excessive speed or under-cornering (insufficient lean anglefor the speed).• Always obey the speed limit and

never travel faster than warrant-ed by road and traffic conditions.

• Always signal before turning orchanging lanes. Make sure thatother motorists can see you.

� The posture of the operator andpassenger is important for propercontrol.• The operator should keep both

hands on the handlebar andboth feet on the operator foot-rests during operation to main-tain control of the motorcycle.

• The passenger should alwayshold onto the operator, the seatstrap or grab bar, if equipped,with both hands and keep bothfeet on the passenger footrests.Never carry a passenger unlesshe or she can firmly place bothfeet on the passenger footrests.

� Never ride under the influence ofalcohol or other drugs.

� This motorcycle is designed for on-road use only. It is not suitable foroff-road use.

Protective apparelThe majority of fatalities from motorcy-cle accidents are the result of head in-juries. The use of a safety helmet is thesingle most critical factor in the preven-tion or reduction of head injuries.

� Always wear an approved helmet.� Wear a face shield or goggles.

Wind in your unprotected eyescould contribute to an impairmentof vision that could delay seeing ahazard.

� The use of a jacket, heavy boots,trousers, gloves, etc., is effective inpreventing or reducing abrasionsor lacerations.

� Never wear loose-fitting clothes,otherwise they could catch on thecontrol levers, footrests, or wheelsand cause injury or an accident.

� Always wear protective clothingthat covers your legs, ankles, andfeet. The engine or exhaust sys-tem become very hot during or af-ter operation and can cause burns.

� A passenger should also observethe above precautions.

Avoid Carbon Monoxide PoisoningAll engine exhaust contains carbonmonoxide, a deadly gas. Breathing car-bon monoxide can cause headaches,dizziness, drowsiness, nausea, confu-sion, and eventually death.Carbon Monoxide is a colorless, odor-less, tasteless gas which may bepresent even if you do not see or smellany engine exhaust. Deadly levels ofcarbon monoxide can collect rapidlyand you can quickly be overcome andunable to save yourself. Also, deadlylevels of carbon monoxide can lingerfor hours or days in enclosed or poorlyventilated areas. If you experience anysymptoms of carbon monoxide poison-ing, leave the area immediately, getfresh air, and SEEK MEDICAL TREAT-MENT.

� Do not run engine indoors. Even ifyou try to ventilate engine exhaustwith fans or open windows anddoors, carbon monoxide can rap-idly reach dangerous levels.


SAFETY INFORMATION

� Do not run engine in poorly venti-lated or partially enclosed areassuch as barns, garages, or car-ports.

� Do not run engine outdoors whereengine exhaust can be drawn intoa building through openings suchas windows and doors.

LoadingAdding accessories or cargo to yourmotorcycle can adversely affect stabili-ty and handling if the weight distributionof the motorcycle is changed. To avoidthe possibility of an accident, use ex-treme caution when adding cargo oraccessories to your motorcycle. Useextra care when riding a motorcyclethat has added cargo or accessories.Here, along with the information aboutaccessories below, are some generalguidelines to follow if loading cargo toyour motorcycle:The total weight of the operator, pas-senger, accessories and cargo mustnot exceed the maximum load limit.Operation of an overloaded vehiclecould cause an accident.

When loading within this weight limit,keep the following in mind:

� Cargo and accessory weightshould be kept as low and close tothe motorcycle as possible. Se-curely pack your heaviest items asclose to the center of the vehicle aspossible and make sure to distrib-ute the weight as evenly as possi-ble on both sides of the motorcycleto minimize imbalance or instabili-ty.

� Shifting weights can create a sud-den imbalance. Make sure that ac-cessories and cargo are securelyattached to the motorcycle beforeriding. Check accessory mountsand cargo restraints frequently.• Properly adjust the suspension

for your load (suspension-ad-justable models only), andcheck the condition and pres-sure of your tires.

• Never attach any large or heavyitems to the handlebar, frontfork, or front fender. These

items, including such cargo assleeping bags, duffel bags, ortents, can create unstable han-dling or a slow steering re-sponse.

� This vehicle is not designed topull a trailer or to be attached toa sidecar.

Genuine Yamaha AccessoriesChoosing accessories for your vehicleis an important decision. GenuineYamaha accessories, which are avail-able only from a Yamaha dealer, havebeen designed, tested, and approvedby Yamaha for use on your vehicle.Many companies with no connection toYamaha manufacture parts and acces-sories or offer other modifications forYamaha vehicles. Yamaha is not in aposition to test the products that theseaftermarket companies produce.Therefore, Yamaha can neither en-dorse nor recommend the use of ac-cessories not sold by Yamaha ormodifications not specifically recom-mended by Yamaha, even if sold andinstalled by a Yamaha dealer.

Maximum load:189 kg (417 lb)

Aftermarket Parts, Accessories, andModificationsWhile you may find aftermarket prod-ucts similar in design and quality togenuine Yamaha accessories, recog-nize that some aftermarket accessoriesor modifications are not suitable be-cause of potential safety hazards to youor others. Installing aftermarket prod-ucts or having other modifications per-formed to your vehicle that change anyof the vehicle’s design or operationcharacteristics can put you and othersat greater risk of serious injury or death.You are responsible for injuries relatedto changes in the vehicle.Keep the following guidelines in mind,as well as those provided under “Load-ing” when mounting accessories.

� Never install accessories or carrycargo that would impair the perfor-mance of your motorcycle. Care-fully inspect the accessory beforeusing it to make sure that it doesnot in any way reduce groundclearance or cornering clearance,

limit suspension travel, steeringtravel or control operation, or ob-scure lights or reflectors.• Accessories fitted to the handle-

bar or the front fork area cancreate instability due to improperweight distribution or aerody-namic changes. If accessoriesare added to the handlebar orfront fork area, they must be aslightweight as possible andshould be kept to a minimum.

• Bulky or large accessories mayseriously affect the stability ofthe motorcycle due to aerody-namic effects. Wind may at-tempt to lift the motorcycle, orthe motorcycle may become un-stable in cross winds. These ac-cessories may also causeinstability when passing or beingpassed by large vehicles.

• Certain accessories can dis-place the operator from his orher normal riding position. Thisimproper position limits the free-dom of movement of the opera-

tor and may limit control ability,therefore, such accessories arenot recommended.

� Use caution when adding electri-cal accessories. If electrical acces-sories exceed the capacity of themotorcycle’s electrical system, anelectric failure could result, whichcould cause a dangerous loss oflights or engine power.

Aftermarket Tires and RimsThe tires and rims that came with yourmotorcycle were designed to match theperformance capabilities and to providethe best combination of handling, brak-ing, and comfort. Other tires, rims, siz-es, and combinations may not beappropriate. Refer to page 7-20 for tirespecifications and more information onreplacing your tires.

WARNINGEWA10881

Gasoline and gasoline vapors areextremely flammable. To avoid firesand explosions and to reduce therisk of injury when refueling, followthese instructions.

1. Before refueling, turn off the en-gine and be sure that no one is sit-ting on the vehicle. Never refuelwhile smoking, or while in the vi-cinity of sparks, open flames, orother sources of ignition such asthe pilot lights of water heaters andclothes dryers.

2. Do not overfill the fuel tank. Whenrefueling, be sure to insert thepump nozzle into the fuel tank fillerhole. Stop filling when the fuelreaches the bottom of the fillertube. Because fuel expands whenit heats up, heat from the engine orthe sun can cause fuel to spill outof the fuel tank.

3. Wipe up any spilled fuel immedi-ately. NOTICE: Immediately wipeoff spilled fuel with a clean, dry,soft cloth, since fuel may deteri-orate painted surfaces or plasticparts. [ECA10071]

4. Be sure to securely close the fueltank cap.

Checking the spark plugs The spark plugs are important enginecomponents, which should be checkedperiodically, preferably by a Yamahadealer. Since heat and deposits willcause any spark plug to slowly erode,they should be removed and checkedin accordance with the periodic mainte-nance and lubrication chart. In addition,the condition of the spark plugs can re-veal the condition of the engine.The porcelain insulator around the cen-ter electrode of each spark plug shouldbe a medium-to-light tan (the ideal colorwhen the vehicle is ridden normally),and all spark plugs installed in the en-gine should have the same color. If anyspark plug shows a distinctly differentcolor, the engine could be operating im-properly. Do not attempt to diagnosesuch problems yourself. Instead, havea Yamaha dealer check the vehicle.If a spark plug shows signs of electrodeerosion and excessive carbon or otherdeposits, it should be replaced.

Before installing a spark plug, the sparkplug gap should be measured with awire thickness gauge and, if necessary,adjusted to specification.

Clean the surface of the spark pluggasket and its mating surface, and thenwipe off any grime from the spark plugthreads.

TIPIf a torque wrench is not available wheninstalling a spark plug, a good estimateof the correct torque is 1/4–1/2 turnpast finger tight. However, the sparkplug should be tightened to the speci-fied torque as soon as possible.

NOTICEECA10840

Do not use any tools to remove or in-stall the spark plug cap, otherwisethe ignition coil coupler may getdamaged. The spark plug cap maybe difficult to remove because therubber seal on the end of the cap fitstightly. To remove the spark plugcap, simply twist it back and forthwhile pulling it out; to install it, twistit back and forth while pushing it in.

Checking the brake fluid level

Front brake

Rear brake

Insufficient brake fluid may allow air toenter the brake system, possibly caus-ing it to become ineffective.

Before riding, check that the brake fluidis above the minimum level mark andreplenish if necessary. A low brake fluidlevel may indicate worn brake padsand/or brake system leakage. If thebrake fluid level is low, be sure to checkthe brake pads for wear and the brakesystem for leakage.Observe these precautions:

� When checking the fluid level,make sure that the top of the brakefluid reservoir is level.

� Use only the recommended qualitybrake fluid, otherwise the rubberseals may deteriorate, causingleakage and poor braking perfor-mance.

� Refill with the same type of brakefluid. Mixing fluids may result in aharmful chemical reaction andlead to poor braking performance.

� Be careful that water does not en-ter the brake fluid reservoir whenrefilling. Water will significantlylower the boiling point of the fluidand may result in vapor lock.

� Brake fluid may deteriorate paint-ed surfaces or plastic parts. Al-ways clean up spilled fluidimmediately.

� As the brake pads wear, it is nor-mal for the brake fluid level to grad-ually go down. However, if thebrake fluid level goes down sud-denly, have a Yamaha dealercheck the cause.

Matte color caution

NOTICEECA15192

Some models are equipped withmatte colored finished parts. Besure to consult a Yamaha dealer foradvice on what products to use be-fore cleaning the vehicle. Using abrush, harsh chemical products orcleaning compounds when cleaningthese parts will scratch or damagetheir surface. Wax also should notbe applied to any matte colored fin-ished parts.

EAU36904

Care While the open design of a motorcyclereveals the attractiveness of the tech-nology, it also makes it more vulnera-ble. Rust and corrosion can developeven if high-quality components areused. A rusty exhaust pipe may go un-noticed on a car, however, it detractsfrom the overall appearance of a motor-cycle. Frequent and proper care doesnot only comply with the terms of thewarranty, but it will also keep your mo-torcycle looking good, extend its lifeand optimize its performance.

Before cleaning1. Cover the muffler outlets with a

plastic bag after the engine hascooled down.

2. Make sure that all caps and coversas well as all electrical couplersand connectors, including thespark plug caps, are tightly in-stalled.

3. Remove extremely stubborn dirt,like oil burnt onto the crankcase,with a degreasing agent and abrush, but never apply such prod-

ucts onto seals, gaskets, sprock-ets, the drive chain and wheelaxles. Always rinse the dirt and de-greaser off with water.

Cleaning

NOTICEECA15092

� Avoid using strong acidic wheelcleaners, especially on spokedwheels. If such products areused on hard-to-remove dirt, donot leave the cleaner on the af-fected area any longer than in-structed. Also, thoroughly rinsethe area off with water, immedi-ately dry it, and then apply a cor-rosion protection spray.

� Improper cleaning can damageplastic parts (such as cowlings,panels, windshields, headlightlenses, meter lenses, etc.) andthe mufflers. Use only a soft,clean cloth or sponge with wa-ter to clean plastic. However, ifthe plastic parts cannot be thor-oughly cleaned with water, di-luted mild detergent with watermay be used. Be sure to rinse



8-2

off any detergent residue usingplenty of water, as it is harmfulto plastic parts.

� Do not use any harsh chemicalproducts on plastic parts or themufflers. Be sure to avoid usingcloths or sponges which havebeen in contact with strong orabrasive cleaning products, sol-vent or thinner, fuel (gasoline),rust removers or inhibitors,brake fluid, antifreeze or electro-lyte.

� Do not use high-pressure wash-ers or steam-jet cleaners sincethey cause water seepage anddeterioration in the following ar-eas: seals (of wheel and swing-arm bearings, fork and brakes),storage compartments, electriccomponents (couplers, connec-tors, instruments, switches andlights), breather hoses andvents.

� For motorcycles equipped witha windshield: Do not use strongcleaners or hard sponges asthey will cause dulling orscratching. Some cleaning com-

pounds for plastic may leavescratches on the windshield.Test the product on a small hid-den part of the windshield tomake sure that it does not leaveany marks. If the windshield isscratched, use a quality plasticpolishing compound afterwashing.

After normal useRemove dirt with warm water, a milddetergent, and a soft, clean sponge,and then rinse thoroughly with cleanwater. Use a toothbrush or bottlebrushfor hard-to-reach areas. Stubborn dirtand insects will come off more easily ifthe area is covered with a wet cloth fora few minutes before cleaning.

After riding in the rain, near the sea oron salt-sprayed roadsSince sea salt or salt sprayed on roadsduring winter are extremely corrosive incombination with water, carry out thefollowing steps after each ride in therain, near the sea or on salt-sprayedroads.

TIPSalt sprayed on roads in the winter mayremain well into spring.

1. Clean the motorcycle with cold wa-ter and a mild detergent, after theengine has cooled down.NOTICE: Do not use warm watersince it increases the corrosiveaction of the salt. [ECA10791]

2. After drying the motorcycle, applya corrosion protection spray on allmetal, including chrome- and nick-el-plated, surfaces (except the tita-nium mufflers) to preventcorrosion.

Cleaning the titanium mufflersThis model is equipped with titaniummufflers, which require the followingspecial care.

� Use only a soft, clean cloth orsponge with mild detergent andwater to clean the titanium muf-flers. However, if the mufflers can-not be thoroughly cleaned withmild detergent, alkaline productsand a soft brush may be used.



8-3

8

� Never use compounds or otherspecial treatments to clean the tita-nium mufflers, as they will removethe finish on the outer surface ofthe mufflers.

� Even the smallest amounts of oil,such as from oily towels or finger-prints, will leave stains on the tita-nium mufflers, which can beremoved with a mild detergent.

� Note that the thermally induceddiscoloring of the portion of the ex-haust pipe leading into the titaniummufflers is normal and cannot beremoved.

After cleaning1. Dry the motorcycle with a chamois

or an absorbing cloth.2. Immediately dry the drive chain

and lubricate it to prevent it fromrusting.

3. Use a chrome polish to shinechrome, aluminum and stainless-steel parts.

4. To prevent corrosion, it is recom-mended to apply a corrosion pro-tection spray on all metal,including chrome- and nickel-plat-ed, surfaces.

5. Use spray oil as a universal clean-er to remove any remaining dirt.

6. Touch up minor paint damagecaused by stones, etc.

7. Wax all painted surfaces.8. Let the motorcycle dry completely

before storing or covering it.

WARNINGEWA11131

Contaminants on the brakes or tirescan cause loss of control.

� Make sure that there is no oil orwax on the brakes or tires.

� If necessary, clean the brakediscs and brake linings with aregular brake disc cleaner or ac-etone, and wash the tires withwarm water and a mild deter-gent. Before riding at higherspeeds, test the motorcycle’sbraking performance and cor-nering behavior.

NOTICEECA10800

� Apply spray oil and wax spar-ingly and make sure to wipe offany excess.

� Never apply oil or wax to anyrubber and plastic parts, buttreat them with a suitable careproduct.

� Avoid using abrasive polishingcompounds as they will wearaway the paint.

TIP� Consult a Yamaha dealer for ad-

vice on what products to use.� Washing, rainy weather or humid

climates can cause the headlightlens to fog. Turning the headlighton for a short period of time willhelp remove the moisture from thelens.

Storage

Short-termAlways store your motorcycle in a cool,dry place and, if necessary, protect itagainst dust with a porous cover.

NOTICEECA10810

� Storing the motorcycle in apoorly ventilated room or cover-ing it with a tarp, while it is stillwet, will allow water and humid-ity to seep in and cause rust.

� To prevent corrosion, avoiddamp cellars, stables (becauseof the presence of ammonia)and areas where strong chemi-cals are stored.

Long-termBefore storing your motorcycle for sev-eral months:

1. Follow all the instructions in the“Care” section of this chapter.

2. Fill up the fuel tank and add fuelstabilizer (if available) to preventthe fuel tank from rusting and thefuel from deteriorating.

3. Perform the following steps to pro-tect the cylinders, piston rings, etc.from corrosion.a. Remove the spark plug caps

and spark plugs.b. Pour a teaspoonful of engine oil

into each spark plug bore.c. Install the spark plug caps onto

the spark plugs, and then placethe spark plugs on the cylinderhead so that the electrodes aregrounded. (This will limit spark-ing during the next step.)

d. Turn the engine over severaltimes with the starter. (This willcoat the cylinder walls with oil.)WARNING! To prevent dam-age or injury from sparking,make sure to ground thespark plug electrodes whileturning the engine over.[EWA10951]

e. Remove the spark plug capsfrom the spark plugs, and theninstall the spark plugs and thespark plug caps.

4. Lubricate all control cables and thepivoting points of all levers andpedals as well as of the side-stand/centerstand.

5. Check and, if necessary, correctthe tire air pressure, and then liftthe motorcycle so that both of itswheels are off the ground. Alterna-tively, turn the wheels a little everymonth in order to prevent the tiresfrom becoming degraded in onespot.

6. Cover the muffler outlets with plas-tic bags to prevent moisture fromentering them.

7. Remove the battery and fullycharge it. Store it in a cool, dryplace and charge it once a month.Do not store the battery in an ex-cessively cold or warm place [lessthan 0 °C (30 °F) or more than 30°C (90 °F)]. For more informationon storing the battery, see page7-32.

WARRANTY QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

What costs are my responsibility during the warranty period?The customer’s responsibility includes all costs of normal maintenance services, non-warranty repairs, accident and collision damages, and oil, oil filters, air filters, spark plugs, and brake shoes.

What are some examples of “abnormal” strain, neglect, or abuse?These terms are general and overlap each other in areas. Specific examples include: Running the machine out of oil, sustained high rpm, full-throttle, operating the machine with a broken or damaged part which causes another part to fail, damage or failure due to improper or careless transportation and/or tie-down. If you have any specific questions on operation or maintenance, please contact your dealer for advice.

Does the warranty cover incidental costs such as towing or transportation due toa failure?No. The warranty is limited to repair of the machine itself.

May I perform any or all of the recommended maintenance shown in the Owner’s Manual instead of having the dealer do them?Yes, if you are a qualified mechanic and follow the procedures specified in the Owner’s and Service Manual. We do recommend, however, that items requiring special tools or equipment be done by a Yamaha motorcycle dealer.

Will the warranty be void or cancelled if I do not operate or maintain my new motorcycle exactly as specified in the Owner’s Manual?No. The warranty on a new motorcycle cannot be “voided” or “cancelled.” However, if a particular failure is caused by operation or maintenance other than as described in the Owner’s Manual, that failure may not be covered under warranty.

What responsibility does my dealer have under this warranty?Each Yamaha motorcycle dealer is expected to:

Completely set up every new machine before sale.Explain the operation, maintenance, and warranty requirements to your satisfaction at the time of sale, and upon your request at any later date.Each Yamaha motorcycle dealer is held responsible for his setup, service and warranty repair work.

Is the warranty transferable to second owners?Yes. The remainder of the existing warranty can be transferred upon request. The unit has to be inspected and re-registered by an authorized Yamaha motorcycle dealer for the policy to remain effective.

YAMAHA EXTENDED SERVICE (Y.E.S.) Keep your Yamaha protected even after your warranty expires with genuine Yamaha Extended Service (Y.E.S.).

Y.E.S. is designed and administered by Yamaha Motor Corporation to provide maximum owner satisfaction. You get uninterrupted factory-backed coverage for extra peace of mind.

Y.E.S. is flexible. You choose the plan that’s right foryou: 12 months, 24 months, 36 months or, on certain models, even 48 months beyond your warranty period.

Y.E.S. is designed and administered by the same Yamaha people who handle your warranty – and itshows in the comprehensive coverage benefits. There are no mileage limitations. Coverage isn’t limited to “moving parts” or the “drive train” like many other plans. And Y.E.S. covers manufacturing defects just like the warranty. See the sample contract at your Yamahadealer to see how comforting uninterrupted factory-backed protection can be.

You don’t have to pay anything for covered repairs. There’s no deductible to pay, and repairs aren’t“pro-rated.” You don’t have any “out-of-pocket” expenses for covered repairs.

In addition, Travel and Recreation Interruption Protection (TRIP) is included at no extra cost. TRIP gives you up to $150 reimbursement per occurrence for any reasonable expenses you incur because your Yamaha needs covered service: replacement vehicle rental, emergency towing, phone calls, even food and lodging when you are away from home. This superb coverage goes into effect when you purchase Y.E.S., so it applies to any warranty repairs as well as covered repairs during your entire Y.E.S. plan period.

Y.E.S. coverage is honored at any authorized Yamaha dealer nationwide.

Y.E.S. coverage is transferable to a new owner if yousell or trade-in. That can make your Yamaha much more valuable!

This excellent Y.E.S. plan coverage is only available to Yamaha owners like you, and only while your Yamaha is still within the Yamaha Limited Warranty period. So visit your authorized Yamaha dealer to get all the facts. He can show you how easy it is to protect your investment with Yamaha Extended Service.



10-10

We urge you to act now. You’ll get the excellent benefits of TRIP coverage right away, and you’ll rest easy knowing you’ll have strong factory-backed protection even after your Yamaha Limited Warranty expires.

A special note:If visiting your dealer isn’t convenient, contact Yamaha with your Primary ID number (your frame number). We’ll be happy to help you get the Y.E.S. coverage you need.
