Safety information

1
Be a Responsible Owner
2
As the vehicle’s owner, you are respon­sible for the safe and proper operation
3
of your motorcycle. Motorcycles are single-track vehicles.
4
Their safe use and operation are de­pendent upon the use of proper riding techniques as well as the expertise of
5
the operator. Every operator should know the following requirements before
6
riding this motorcycle. He or she should:
7
Obtain thorough instructions from
a competent source on all aspects
8
of motorcycle operation.
Observe the warnings and mainte-
nance requirements in this Own-
9
10
11
er’s Manual.
Obtain qualified training in safe
and proper riding techniques.
Obtain professional technical ser-
vice as indicated in this Owner’s
Manual and/or when made neces-
sary by mechanical conditions.
12
Never operate a motorcycle with-
out proper training or instruction.
EAU1028B
Take a training course. Beginners should receive training from a cer­tified instructor. Contact an autho­rized motorcycle dealer to find out about the training courses nearest you.
Safe Riding
Perform the pre-operation checks each time you use the vehicle to make sure it is in safe operating condition. Failure to inspect or maintain the vehicle properly increases the possibility of an accident or equipment damage. See page 5-1 for a list of pre-operation checks.
This motorcycle is designed to car-
ry the operator and a passenger.
The failure of motorists to detect
and recognize motorcycles in traf­fic is the predominating cause of automobile/motorcycle accidents. Many accidents have been caused by an automobile driver who did not see the motorcycle. Making yourself conspicuous appears to be very effective in reducing the chance of this type of accident.
Therefore:
• Wear a brightly colored jacket.
1-1
• Use extra caution when you are approaching and passing through intersections, since in­tersections are the most likely places for motorcycle accidents to occur.
• Ride where other motorists can see you. Avoid riding in another motorist’s blind spot.
• Never maintain a motorcycle without proper knowledge. Con­tact an authorized motorcycle dealer to inform you on basic motorcycle maintenance. Cer­tain maintenance can only be carried out by certified staff.
Many accidents involve inexperi-
enced operators. In fact, many op­erators who have been involved in accidents do not even have a cur­rent motorcycle license.
• Make sure that you are qualified and that you only lend your mo­torcycle to other qualified opera­tors.
• Know your skills and limits. Staying within your limits may help you to avoid an accident.
• We recommend that you prac-
Safety information
tice riding your motorcycle where there is no traffic until you have become thoroughly famil­iar with the motorcycle and all of its controls.
Many accidents have been caused
by error of the motorcycle opera­tor. A typical error made by the op­erator is veering wide on a turn due to excessive speed or under­cornering (insufficient lean angle for the speed).
• Always obey the speed limit and never travel faster than warrant­ed by road and traffic conditions.
• Always signal before turning or changing lanes. Make sure that other motorists can see you.
The posture of the operator and
passenger is important for proper control.
• The operator should keep both hands on the handlebar and both feet on the operator foot­rests during operation to main­tain control of the motorcycle.
• The passenger should always hold onto the operator, the seat strap or grab bar, if equipped,
with both hands and keep both feet on the passenger footrests. Never carry a passenger unless he or she can firmly place both feet on the passenger footrests.
Never ride under the influence of
alcohol or other drugs.
This motorcycle is designed for
on-road use only. It is not suitable for off-road use.
Protective Apparel
The majority of fatalities from motorcy­cle accidents are the result of head in­juries. The use of a safety helmet is the single most critical factor in the preven­tion or reduction of head injuries.
Always wear an approved helmet.Wear a face shield or goggles.
Wind in your unprotected eyes could contribute to an impairment of vision that could delay seeing a hazard.
The use of a jacket, heavy boots,
trousers, gloves, etc., is effective in preventing or reducing abrasions or lacerations.
Never wear loose-fitting clothes,
otherwise they could catch on the
1-2
control levers, footrests, or wheels and cause injury or an accident.
Always wear protective clothing
that covers your legs, ankles, and feet. The engine or exhaust sys­tem become very hot during or af­ter operation and can cause burns.
A passenger should also observe
the above precautions.
Avoid Carbon Monoxide Poisoning
All engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide, a deadly gas. Breathing car­bon monoxide can cause headaches, dizziness, drowsiness, nausea, confu­sion, and eventually death. Carbon Monoxide is a colorless, odor­less, tasteless gas which may be pres­ent even if you do not see or smell any engine exhaust. Deadly levels of car­bon monoxide can collect rapidly and you can quickly be overcome and un­able to save yourself. Also, deadly lev­els of carbon monoxide can linger for hours or days in enclosed or poorly ventilated areas. If you experience any symptoms of carbon monoxide poison­ing, leave the area immediately, get fresh air, and SEEK MEDICAL TREAT-

MENT.
1
Do not run engine indoors. Even if
you try to ventilate engine exhaust
2
with fans or open windows and doors, carbon monoxide can rap-
3
idly reach dangerous levels.
Do not run engine in poorly venti-
lated or partially enclosed areas
4
such as barns, garages, or car­ports.
Do not run engine outdoors where
5
engine exhaust can be drawn into
6
7
a building through openings such as windows and doors.
Loading
Adding accessories or cargo to your motorcycle can adversely affect stabili-
8
ty and handling if the weight distribution of the motorcycle is changed. To avoid
9
the possibility of an accident, use ex­treme caution when adding cargo or
10
accessories to your motorcycle. Use extra care when riding a motorcycle that has added cargo or accessories.
11
Here, along with the information about accessories below, are some general
12
guidelines to follow if loading cargo to your motorcycle:
The total weight of the operator, pas­senger, accessories and cargo must not exceed the maximum load limit.
Operation of an overloaded vehicle could cause an accident.
Maximum load:
174 kg (384 lb)
When loading within this weight limit, keep the following in mind:
Cargo and accessory weight
should be kept as low and close to the motorcycle as possible. Se­curely pack your heaviest items as close to the center of the vehicle as possible and make sure to distrib­ute the weight as evenly as possi­ble on both sides of the motorcycle to minimize imbalance or instabili­ty.
Shifting weights can create a sud-
den imbalance. Make sure that ac­cessories and cargo are securely attached to the motorcycle before riding. Check accessory mounts and cargo restraints frequently.
• Properly adjust the suspension for your load (suspension-ad-
1-3
justable models only), and check the condition and pres­sure of your tires.
• Never attach any large or heavy items to the handlebar, front fork, or front fender. These items, including such cargo as sleeping bags, duffel bags, or tents, can create unstable han­dling or a slow steering re­sponse.
This vehicle is not designed to
pull a trailer or to be attached to a sidecar.
Genuine Yamaha Accessories
Choosing accessories for your vehicle is an important decision. Genuine Yamaha accessories, which are avail­able only from a Yamaha dealer, have been designed, tested, and approved by Yamaha for use on your vehicle. Many companies with no connection to Yamaha manufacture parts and acces­sories or offer other modifications for Yamaha vehicles. Yamaha is not in a position to test the products that these aftermarket companies produce. Therefore, Yamaha can neither en-
Safety information
dorse nor recommend the use of ac­cessories not sold by Yamaha or modifications not specifically recom­mended by Yamaha, even if sold and installed by a Yamaha dealer.
Aftermarket Parts, Accessories, and Modifications
While you may find aftermarket prod­ucts similar in design and quality to genuine Yamaha accessories, recog­nize that some aftermarket accessories or modifications are not suitable be­cause of potential safety hazards to you or others. Installing aftermarket prod­ucts or having other modifications per­formed to your vehicle that change any of the vehicle’s design or operation characteristics can put you and others at greater risk of serious injury or death. You are responsible for injuries related to changes in the vehicle. Keep the following guidelines in mind, as well as those provided under “Load­ing” when mounting accessories.
Never install accessories or carry
cargo that would impair the perfor­mance of your motorcycle. Care­fully inspect the accessory before
using it to make sure that it does not in any way reduce ground clearance or cornering clearance, limit suspension travel, steering travel or control operation, or ob­scure lights or reflectors.
• Accessories fitted to the handle­bar or the front fork area can create instability due to improper weight distribution or aerody­namic changes. If accessories are added to the handlebar or front fork area, they must be as lightweight as possible and should be kept to a minimum.
• Bulky or large accessories may seriously affect the stability of the motorcycle due to aerody­namic effects. Wind may at­tempt to lift the motorcycle, or the motorcycle may become un­stable in cross winds. These ac­cessories may also cause instability when passing or being passed by large vehicles.
• Certain accessories can dis­place the operator from his or her normal riding position. This improper position limits the free-
1-4
dom of movement of the opera­tor and may limit control ability, therefore, such accessories are not recommended.
Use caution when adding electri-
cal accessories. If electrical acces­sories exceed the capacity of the motorcycle’s electrical system, an electric failure could result, which could cause a dangerous loss of lights or engine power.
Aftermarket Tires and Rims
The tires and rims that came with your motorcycle were designed to match the performance capabilities and to provide the best combination of handling, brak­ing, and comfort. Other tires, rims, siz­es, and combinations may not be appropriate. Refer to page 7-19 for tire specifications and more information on replacing your tires.
Transporting the Motorcycle
Be sure to observe following instruc­tions before transporting the motorcy­cle in another vehicle.
Remove all loose items from the
motorcycle.

Safety information
Check that the fuel cock (if
equipped) is in the “OFF” position and that there are no fuel leaks.
Point the front wheel straight
ahead on the trailer or in the truck bed, and choke it in a rail to pre­vent movement.
Shift the transmission in gear (for
models with a manual transmis­sion).
Secure the motorcycle with
tie-downs or suitable straps that are attached to solid parts of the motorcycle, such as the frame or upper front fork triple clamp (and not, for example, to rubber-mount­ed handlebars or turn signals, or parts that could break). Choose the location for the straps carefully so the straps will not rub against painted surfaces during transport.
The suspension should be com-
pressed somewhat by the tie-downs, if possible, so that the motorcycle will not bounce exces­sively during transport.

Mode “A” offers a sportier engine re­sponse in the low- to mid-speed range compared to mode “STD”.
Mode “B”
Mode “B” offers response that is some­what less sharp compared to mode “STD” for riding situations that require especially sensitive throttle operation.
EAU76432

Traction control system

The traction control system (TCS) helps maintain traction when accelerat­ing on slippery surfaces, such as un­paved or wet roads. If sensors detect that the rear wheel is starting to slip (un­controlled spinning), the traction control system assists by regulating engine power as needed until traction is re­stored.
EWA15432
The traction control system is not a substitute for riding appropriately for the conditions. Traction control cannot prevent loss of traction due to excessive speed when entering turns, when accelerating hard at a sharp lean angle, or while braking, and cannot prevent front wheel slip­ping. As with any motorcycle, ap­proach surfaces that may be slippery with caution and avoid es­pecially slippery surfaces.

Quick shift system

The quick shift system (QS) allows for full-throttle, clutch lever-less, electroni­cally-assisted upshifts. When the shift switch detects motion in the shift pedal (page 4-14), engine power and drive torque are momentarily adjusted to al­low the upshift to occur.
The quick shift system operates
when traveling at least 20 km/h (12 mi/h) with an engine speed of 2300 r/min or higher, and only when ac­celerating.
It does not operate when the clutch
lever is pulled.

Immobilizer system

1. Code re-registering key (red bow)
2. Standard keys (black bow)
This vehicle is equipped with an immo­bilizer system to help prevent theft by re-registering codes in the standard keys. This system consists of the fol­lowing:
a code re-registering key (with a
red bow)
two standard keys (with a black
bow) that can be re-registered with new codes
a transponder (which is installed in
the code re-registering key)
an immobilizer unitan ECUan immobilizer system indicator
light (See page 4-7.) The key with the red bow is used to reg­ister codes in each standard key. Since re-registering is a difficult process, take the vehicle along with all three keys to a Yamaha dealer to have them re-reg­istered. Do not use the key with the red bow for driving. It should only be used for re-registering the standard keys. Al­ways use a standard key for driving.

DO NOT LOSE THE CODE
RE-REGISTERING KEY! CON-
TACT YOUR DEALER IMMEDI-
ATELY IF IT IS LOST! If the code
re-registering key is lost, regis-

standard keys can still be used
to start the vehicle, however if
code re-registering is required
(i.e., if a new standard key is
made or all keys are lost) the en-

replaced. Therefore, it is highly
recommended to use either
standard key and keep the code
re-registering key in a safe

Do not place heavy items on any
key.
Do not grind any key or alter its
shape.
Do not disassemble the plastic
part of any key.
Do not put two keys of any im-
