This manual was produced by the Yamaha Motor Company primarily for use by Yamaha dealers
and their qualified mechanics. It is not possible to include all the knowledge of a mechanic in one
manual, so it is assumed that anyone who uses this book to perform maintenance and repairs on
Yamaha machine has a basic understanding of the mechanical ideas and the procedures of
machine repair. Repairs attempted by anyone without this knowledge are likely to render the
machine unsafe and unfit for use.
Yamaha Motor Company, Ltd. is continually striving to improve all its models. Modifications and
significant changes in specifications or procedures will be forwarded to all authorized Yamaha
dealers and will appear in future editions of this manual where applicable.
OTE:
Designs and specifications are subject to change without notice.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Particularly important information is distinguished in this manual by the following notations.
The Safety Alert Symbol means ATTENTION! BECOME ALERT! YOUR
SAFETY IS INVOLVED!
WARNING
CAUTION:
NOTE:
Failure to follow WARNING instructions could result in severe injury or death
to the machine operator, a bystander or a person inspecting or repairing the
machine.
A CAUTION indicates special precautions that must be taken to avoid
damage to the machine.
A NOTE provides key information to make procedures easier or clearer.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION
PREPARATION FOR REMOVAL
PROCEDURES
1.Remove all dirt, mud, dust and foreign
material before removal and disassembly.
2.Use proper tools and cleaning equipment.
Refer to the “SPECIAL TOOLS” section.
3.When disassembling the machine, always
keep mated parts together. This includes
gears, cylinder, piston and other parts that
have been “mated” through normal wear.
Mated parts must always be reused or
replaced as an assembly.
4.During machine disassembly, clean all parts
and place them in trays in the order of
disassembly. This will speed up assembly
and allow for the correct installation of all
parts.
5.Keep all parts away from any source of fire.

REPLACEMENT PARTS
1.Use only genuine Yamaha parts for all
replacements. Use oil and grease
recommended by Yamaha for all lubrication
jobs. Other brands may be similar in function
and appearance, but inferior in quality.
EB101020
GASKETS, OIL SEALS AND O-RINGS
1.Replace all gaskets, seals and O-rings when
overhauling the engine. All gasket surfaces,
oil seal lips and O-rings must be cleaned.
2.Properly oil all mating parts and bearings
during reassembly. Apply grease to the oil
seal lips.

LOCK WASHERS/PLATES AND COTTER
PINS
1.Replace all lock washers/plates 1 and cotter
pins after removal. Bend lock tabs along the
bolt or nut flats after the bolt or nut has been
tightened to specification.
EB101040
BEARINGS AND OIL SEALS
1.Install bearings and oil seals so that the
manufacturer’s marks or numbers are visible.
When installing oil seals, apply a light
coating of lightweight lithium base grease to
the seal lips. Oil bearings liberally when
installing, if appropriate.

CIRCLIPS
1.Check all circlips carefully before
reassembly. Always replace piston pin clips
after one use. Replace distorted circlips.
When installing a circlip 1, make sure that
the sharp-edged corner 2 is positioned
opposite the thrust 3 it receives. See
sectional view.

2.Check:
●
Connector
Moisture → Dry each terminal with an air
blower.
Stains/rust → Connect and disconnect the
terminals several times.
3.Check:
●
Connector leads
Looseness → Bend up the pin 1 and
connect the terminals.
GEN

4.Connect:
●
Connector terminals
OTE:
The two terminals “click” together.
5.Check:
●
Continuity (using a pocket tester)
OTE:
●
If there is no continuity, clean the terminals.
●
When checking the wire harness be sure to
perform steps 1 to 3.
●
As a quick remedy, use a contact revitalizer
available at most part stores.
●
Check the connector with a pocket tester as
shown.

GENERAL TORQUE
SPECIFICATIONS
This chart specifies torque for standard
fasteners with standard I.S.O. pitch threads.
Torque specifications for special components
or assemblies are provided for each chapter of
this manual. To avoid warpage, tighten multifastener assemblies in a crisscross fashion, in
progressive stages, until the specified torque is
reached. Unless otherwise specified, torque
specifications require clean, dry threads.

This chapter includes all information necessary to perform recommended checks and adjustments.
These preventive maintenance procedures, if followed, will ensure more reliable vehicle operation
and a longer service life. The need for costly overhaul work will be greatly reduced. This information
applies to vehicles already in service as well as to new vehicles that are being prepared for sale. All
service technicians should be familiar with this entire chapter.

CHK
ADJ
OTE:
●
When the piston is at the Top Dead Center
(T.D.C.) on the compression stroke, there
should be clearance between the valve stem
tips and their respective rocker arm adjusting
screws.
●
If there is no clearance, rotate the crankshaft
counterclockwise one turn.
●
Measure the valve clearance using a feeler
gauge 3.
Seat
Refer to “SEAT, CARRIERS, FENDERS

ADJUSTING THE SPEED LIMITER
The speed limiter keeps the carburetor throttle
from becoming fully-opened even when the
throttle lever is applied to the maximum
position. Screwing in the adjuster stops the
engine speed from increasing.

Disconnect the starter cable 1 from the
carburetor body.
OTE:
Do not remove the starter plunger 2 from the
starter cable.

CHECKING THE ENGINE OIL LEVEL
CHECKING THE ENGINE OIL LEVEL
1.Place the machine on a level surface.

3.Check:
●
Engine oil level
Oil level should be between the maximum
level mark 1 and minimum level mark 2.
Oil level low → Add oil to the proper level.
OTE:
Do not screw the dipstick 3 in when checking
the oil level.
Recommended oil:
Follow the left chart.
CHK
ADJ
OTE:
Recommended oil classification:
API Service “SE”, “SF” type or equivalent (e.g.
“SF–SE–CC”, “SF–SE–SD” etc.)
CAUTION:
Do not allow foreign material to enter the
crankcase.
4.Start the engine and let it warm up for
several minutes.
5.Stop the engine and check the oil level
again.
OTE:
Wait a few minutes until the oil settles before
checking the oil level.
WARNING
Never remove the dipstick just after high
speed operation because the heated oil
could spurt out. Wait until the oil cools
down before removing the dipstick.

perform the following procedure.
Start the engine and keep it idling until
engine oil starts to seep from the oil gallery
bolt. If no engine oil comes out after one
minute, turn the engine off so that it will not
seize.
●
Check the engine oil passages, the oil filter
cartridge and the oil pump for damage or
leakage. Refer to “CRANKCASE” in
CHAPTER 4.
●
Start the engine after solving the problem(s)
and check the engine oil pressure again.
Seat
Refer to “SEAT, CARRIERS, FENDERS
AND FUEL TANK”.
CLEANING THE AIR FILTER
OTE:
There is a check hose 1 at the bottom of the
air filter case. If dust and/or water collects in
this hose, clean the air filter element and air
filter case.

CAUTION:
Never operate the engine with the air filter

air to enter, causing rapid wear and
possible engine damage. Additionally,
operation without the filter element will
affect carburetor tuning with subsequent
poor performance and possible engine
overheating.
To prevent air leaks make sure that the sealing
surface of the element matches the sealing
surface of the case.
