MACHINE IDENTIFICATION
There are two significant reasons for knowing
the serial number of your machine:
1. When ordering parts, you can give the
number to your Yamaha dealer for positive identification of the model you own.
2. If your machine is stolen, the authorities
will need the number to search for and
identify your machine.
EC121001
VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION NUMBER
The vehicle identification number 1 is
stamped on the right of the steering head pipe.

PREPARATION FOR REMOVAL AND
DISASSEMBLY
1. Remove all dirt, mud, dust, and foreign
material before removal and disassembly.
When washing the machine with high
pressured water, cover the parts as follows.
● Silencer exhaust port
GEN
INFO
2. Use proper tools and cleaning equipment. Refer to “SPECIAL TOOLS” section.
3. When disassembling the machine, keep
mated parts together. They include
gears, cylinders, pistons, and other
mated parts that have been “mated”
through normal wear. Mated parts must
be reused as an assembly or replaced.
4. During the machine disassembly, clean
all parts and place them in trays in the
order of disassembly. This will speed up
assembly time and help assure that all
parts are correctly reinstalled.

5. Keep away from fire.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
EC132000
ALL REPLACEMENT PARTS
1. We recommend to use Yamaha genuine
parts for all replacements. Use oil and/or
grease recommended by Yamaha for
assembly and adjustment.
EC133000
GASKETS, OIL SEALS AND O-RINGS
1. All gaskets, oil seals, and O-rings should
be replaced when an engine is overhauled. 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.
GEN
INFO
EC134000
LOCK WASHERS/PLATES AND COTTER
PINS
1. All lock washers/plates 1 and cotter pins
must be replaced when they are
removed. Lock tab(s) should be bent
along the bolt or nut flat(s) after the bolt
or nut has been properly tightened.
EC135001
BEARINGS AND OIL SEALS
1. Install the bearing(s) 1 and oil seal(s) 2
with their manufacturer’s marks or numbers facing outward. (In other words, the
stamped letters must be on the side
exposed to view.) When installing oil
seal(s), apply a light coating of lightweight lithium base grease to the seal
lip(s). Oil the bearings liberally when
installing.
CAUTION:
Do not use compressed air to spin the
bearings dry. This causes damage to the
bearing surfaces.

“ENGINE STOP” SWITCH
Make sure that the engine stop switch 1 is
positioned to “”. The engine stop switch has
been equipped to ensure safety in an emergency such when the machine is up set or
trouble takes place in the throttle system. The
engine will not start or run when the engine
stop switch is turned to “”.
SHIFT PEDAL
The gear ratios of the constant-mesh 3 speed
transmission are ideally spaced. The gears
can be shifted by using the shift pedal 1 on
the left side of the engine.
WARNING
When starting out on the machine, shift the
transmission into 1st after pulling in the
front brake lever and closing the throttle
grip.

INFO
FUEL COCK
The fuel cock supplies fuel from the tank to
carburetor while filtering the fuel. The fuel cock
has the three positions:
OFF: With the lever in this position, fuel will
not flow. Always return the lever to this
position when the engine is not running.
ON:With the lever in this position, fuel flows
to the carburetor. Normal riding is done
with the lever in this position.
RES: This indicates reserve. If you run out of
fuel while riding, move the lever to this
position. FILL THE TANK AT THE
FIRST OPPORTUNITY. BE SURE TO
SET THE LEVER TO “ON” AFTER
REFUELING.
STARTER LEVER (CHOKE)
When cold, the engine requires a richer air/fuel
mixture for starting. A separate starter circuit,
which is controlled by the starter lever 1, supplies this mixture.
Pull the lever out to open the circuit (for starting) and push the lever in to close the circuit.

STARTING AND OPERATION
GEN
INFO
STARTING AND OPERATION
CAUTION:
Prior to operating the machine, perform
steps listed in pre-operation check list.
WARNING
Never start your engine or let it run for any
length of time in a closed area. The exhaust
fumes are poisonous and can cause loss of
consciousness and death within a short
time. Always operate your machine in an
area with adequate ventilation.
STARTING A COLD ENGINE
WARNING
Before starting the engine, be sure to shift
the transmission into neutral.
1. Turn the fuel cock to “ON”.
2. Operate the starter (choke) and completely close the throttle grip.
3. Slide the “ENGINE STOP” switch to the
“”.
4. Kick the kick starter with full strength to
start the engine.
5. After the engine starts, warm up for one
or two minutes. Make sure the stater
(choke) is returned to the original position
before riding.
STARTING A WARM ENGINE
To start a warm engine, refer to the “Starting a
cold engine” section. The starter (choke)
should not be used. The throttle should be
opened slightly.
WARMING UP
To get maximum engine life, always “warm-up”
the engine before starting off. Never accelerate hard with a cold engine! To see whether or
not the engine is warm, see if it responds to
throttle normally with the stater (choke) turned
off.
WARNING
Before starting off, be sure to turn up or
remove the side stand.
Failure to retract the side stand completely
can result in a serious accident when you
try to turn a corner.
ENGINE BREAK-IN
Brake-in is important to better fit the moving
and sliding parts as well as the installed parts.
It is also important to accustom the rider to the
machine better.
Avoid full-throttle run on a new machine for the
first 5 hours.
After the trial run, check for loose parts, oil
leakage and other problems.
Make full inspection and adjustment especially
of slack cables and drive chain and loose
spokes.
CAUTION:
After the break-in period, check every fitting and fastener for looseness.
If any loose is found, retighten it securely.
CAUTION:
See “Engine break-in Section” prior to
operating engine for the first time.

2. Adjust:
● Throttle grip free play
Throttle grip free play adjustment steps:
OTE:
Before adjusting the throttle cable free play,
the engine idle speed should be adjusted.
● Loosen the locknut 1 on throttle cable.
● Turn the adjuster 2 in or out until the
specified free play is obtained.
INSP
ADJ
Turning in:Free play is increased.
Turning out:Free play is decreased.
● Tighten the locknut.
WARNING
After adjusting, turn the handlebar to
right and left and make sure that the
engine idling does not run faster.
AIR FILTER CLEANING
OTE:
Proper air filter maintenance is the biggest key
to preventing premature engine wear and
damage.
CAUTION:
Never run the engine without the air filter
element in place; this would allow dirt and
dust to enter the engine and cause rapid
wear and possible engine damage.

OTE:
After cleaning, remove the remaining solvent
by squeezing the element.
CAUTION:
● Do not twist the element when squeezing
the element.
● Leaving too much of solvent in the ele-
ment may result in poor starting.
4. Inspect:
● Air filter element
Damage → Replace.
5. Apply:
● Foam-air-filter oil or engine mixing oil
