WARNINGBefore riding this motorcycle,become thoroughly familiarwith all operating controls andtheir functions. Consult aYamaha dealer regarding anycontrol or function that you donot thoroughly understand.Never start your engine or let itrun for any length of time in aclosed area. The exhaust fumesare poisonous and can causeloss of consciousness anddeath within a short time. Al-ways operate your motorcyclein an area with adequate ventila-tion.Before starting out, always besure the sidestand is up. Failureto retract the sidestand com-pletely can result in a seriousaccident when you try to turn acorner.

Tips for reducing fuel consumptionYour motorcycle’s fuel consumptiondepends to a large extent on yourriding style. The following tips can helpreduce fuel consumption:

● Warm up the engine before riding.● Turn off the starter (choke) as

soon as possible.● Shift up swiftly and avoid high en-

gine speeds during acceleration.● Do not double-clutch or rev the en-

gine while shifting down and avoidhigh engine speeds with no loadon the engine.

● Turn off the engine instead of let-ting it idle for an extended lengthof time, i.e. in traffic jams, at trafficlights or railroad crossings.

InspectionThe spark plug is an important enginecomponent and is easy to inspect. Thecondition of the spark plug can indicatethe condition of the engine. Normally,all spark plugs from the same engineshould have the same color on thewhite insulator around the center elec-trode. The ideal color at this point is amedium-to-light tan color for a motor-cycle that is being ridden normally. Ifone spark plug shows a distinctly differ-ent color, there could be somethingwrong with the engine. Do not attemptto diagnose such problems yourself. In-stead, take the motorcycle to aYamaha dealer.

Proper loading of your motorcycleis important for several characteris-tics of your motorcycle, such ashandling, braking, performance andsafety. Do not carry loosely packeditems that can shift. Securely packyour heaviest items close to thecenter of the motorcycle, and dis-tribute the weight evenly from sideto side. Properly adjust the suspen-sion for your load, and check thecondition and pressure of your tires.NEVER OVERLOAD YOUR MOTOR-CYCLE. Make sure the total weightof the cargo, rider, passenger, andaccessories (fairing, saddlebags,etc. if approved for this model) doesnot exceed the maximum load of themotorcycle.

This motorcycle is fitted with superhigh-speed running tires. The fol-lowing points must be observed inorder for you to make fully effectiveuse of these tires.

● Never fail to use the specifiedtires in tire replacement. Othertires may have a danger ofbursting at super high-speeds.

● New tires have a relatively lowgrip on the road surface untilthey have been slightly worn.Therefore, approximately 100 kmshould be traveled at normalspeed before any high-speedriding is done.

● Before any high-speed runs, thetires should be warmed-up suf-ficiently.

● Always inflate to the correct tirepressure according to the oper-ating conditions.

as 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 anddegreaser off with water.

● For motorcycles equipped witha windshield: Do not use strongcleaners or hard sponges asthey will cause dulling orscratching. Some cleaningcompounds for plastic mayleave scratches on the wind-shield. Test the product on asmall hidden part of the wind-shield to make sure they do notleave any marks. If the wind-shield is scratched, use a quali-ty plastic polishing compoundafter washing.

ter riding in the rain, near the sea or salt-sprayed roadsnce sea salt or salt sprayed on theads in the winter are extremely corro-e in combination with water, carryt the following steps after each ridethe rain, near the sea or on salt-rayed roads. (Salt sprayed in thenter may remain on the roads wello spring.)

AUTION:● Avoid using strong acidic wheel

cleaners, especially on spokedwheels. If you do use suchproducts for hard-to-removedirt, do not leave it on any long-er than instructed, then thor-oughly rinse it off with water,immediately dry the area andapply a corrosion protectionspray.

● Improper cleaning can damagewindshields, cowlings, panelsand other plastic parts. Useonly a soft, clean cloth orsponge with mild detergent andwater to clean plastic.

● Do not use any harsh chemicalproducts on plastic parts. Besure to avoid using cloths orsponges which have been incontact with strong or abrasivecleaning products, solvent orthinner, fuel (gasoline), rust re-movers or inhibitors, brake flu-id, antifreeze or electrolyte.

● Do not use high-pressure wash-ers or steam-jet cleaners sincethey cause water seepage anddeterioration in the following ar-eas: seals (of wheel bearings,swingarm bearings, forks andbrakes), electric components(couplers, connectors, instru-ments, switches and lights),breather hoses and vents.

WARNINGke sure that there is no oil or waxthe brakes and tires. If neces-y, clean the brake discs and lin-s with a regular brake discner or acetone, and wash the

s with warm water and mild soap.n, carefully test the motorcycle

its braking performance and cor-ing behavior.


OTORCYCLE CARE AND STORAGE

7-3

Clean your motorcycle with coldwater and soap after the enginehas cooled down.

ECA00012

UTION: not use warm water since it in-ases the corrosive action of thet.

Be sure to apply a corrosion pro-tection spray on all (even chrome-and nickel-plated) metal surfacesto prevent corrosion.

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, including the exhaustsystem. (Even the thermally in-duced discoloring of stainless-steel exhaust systems can be re-moved through polishing.)

4. To prevent corrosion, it is recom-mended to apply a corrosion pro-tection spray on all (even chrome-and nickel-plated) metal 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 it or covering it.

“Care” section of this chapter.. Drain the carburetor float cham-

bers by loosening the drain bolts;this will prevent fuel deposits frombuilding up. Pour the drained fuelinto the fuel tank.

. Only for motorcycles equippedwith a fuel cock which has an“OFF” position: Turn the fuel cockto “OFF”.

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

. Perform the following steps to pro-tect the cylinders, piston rings, etc.from corrosion.

a. Remove the spark plug caps andspark plugs.

b. Pour a teaspoonful of engine oilinto each spark plug bore.

AUTION:● Apply spray oil and wax spar-

ingly and wipe off any excess.● Never apply oil or wax on rub-

ber and plastic parts, but treatthem with a suitable care prod-uct.

● Avoid using abrasive polishingcompounds as they wear awaythe paint.

. Install the spark plug caps onto thespark plugs and place the sparkplugs on the cylinder head so thatthe electrodes are grounded. (Thiswill limit sparking during the nextstep.)

. Turn the engine over several timeswith the starter. (This will coat thecylinder walls with oil.)

. Remove the spark plug caps fromthe spark plugs, install the sparkplugs and then the spark plugcaps.

EWA00003

WARNINGen turning the engine over, bee to ground the spark plug elec-es to prevent damage or injury sparking.

. Lubricate all control cables andthe pivoting points of all levers andpedals as well as of the sidestand/centerstand.

7. Check and, if necessary, correctthe tire air pressure, then raise themotorcycle 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.

8. Cover up the muffler outlet with aplastic bag to prevent moisturefrom entering.

9. Remove the battery and fullycharge it. Store it in a cool, dryplace and recharge it once amonth. Do not store the battery inan excessively cold or warm place(less than 0°C or more than 30°C).For more information, see “Batterystorage” in the chapter “PERIOD-IC MAINTENANCE AND MINORREPAIRS”.
