    INTRODUCTION
    This chapter includes all information necessary to perform recommended checks and adjustments. 
    If followed, these preventive maintenance procedures  will ensure more reliable vehicle operation, a 
    longer service life and reduce the need for costly ov erhaul work. 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.
    NOTE:
    The annual checks must be performed every year, except if a kilometer-based maintenance 
    is performed instead.
     From 50000 km, repeat the maintenance intervals starting from 10000 km.
     Items marked with an asterisk should be perform ed by a Yamaha dealer as they require special 
    tools, data and technical skills.

    NOTE:
     Air filter This model’s air filter is equipped with a disposable oil-coated paper element, which must not be  cleaned with compressed air to avoid damaging it.
     The air filter element needs to be replaced more  frequently when riding in unusually wet or dusty 
    areas.
     Hydraulic brake service
     Regularly check and, if necessary, correct the brake fluid level.
     Every two years replace the internal components of the brake master cylinders and calipers, and  change the brake fluid.
     Replace the brake hoses every four years and if cracked or damaged.

    ADJUSTING THE VALVE CLEARANCE
    The following procedure applies to all of the 
    valves.
    NOTE:
     Valve clearance adjustment should be made 
    on a cold engine, at room temperature.
     When the valve clearance is to be measured  or adjusted, the piston must be at top dead 
    center (TDC) on the compression stroke.

    3. Remove:  Pickup rotor cover “1” 4. Measure:
     Valve clearance Out of specification  → Adjust.
    ▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼
    a. Turn the crankshaft counterclockwise.
    b. When piston #1 is at TDC on the compres-
    sion stroke, align the TDC mark “a” on the 
    pickup rotor with the crankcase mating sur-
    face “b”.
    NOTE:
    TDC on the compression stroke can be found 
    when the camshaft lobes are turned away from 
    each other.
    c. Measure the valve clearance with a thick-ness gauge “1”.
    NOTE:
     If the valve clearance is incorrect, record the measured reading.
     Measure the valve clearance in the following 
    sequence.
    Valve clearance (cold) Intake
    0.13–0.20 mm (0.0051–0.0079
    in)
    Exhaust

    d. To measure the valve clearances of the other cylinders, starting with cylinder #1 at 
    TDC, turn the crankshaft counterclockwise 
    as specified in the following table.

    5. Remove: Camshafts
    NOTE:
     Refer to CAMSHAFTS on page 5-8.  When removing the timing chain and cam-
    shafts, fasten the timing chain with a wire to 
    retrieve it if it falls into the crankcase.
    6. Adjust:  Valve clearance
    ▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼
    a. Remove the valve lifter “1” and the valve  pad “2” with a valve lapper “3”.
    NOTE:
     Cover the timing chain opening with a rag to prevent the valve pad from falling into the 
    crankcase.
     Make a note of the position of each valve 
    lifter “1” and valve pad “2” so that they can be 
    installed in the correct place.
    b. Select the proper valve pad from the follow- ing table.
    NOTE:
     The thickness “a” of each valve pad is marked in hundredths of millimeters on the 
    side that touches the valve lifter.

     Since valve pads of various sizes are origi-nally installed, the valve pad number must be 
    rounded in order to reach the closest equiva-
    lent to the original.
    c. Round off the original valve pad number  according to the following table.
    EXAMPLE:
    Original valve pad number = 148 (thickness 
    = 1.48 mm (0.058 in))
    Rounded value = 150
    d. Locate the rounded number of the original  valve pad and the measured valve clear-
    ance in the valve pad selection table. The 
    point where the column and row intersect is 
    the new valve pad number.
    NOTE:
    The new valve pad number is only an approxi-
    mation. The valve clearance must be mea-
    sured again and the above steps should be 
    repeated if the measurement is still incorrect.
    e. Install the new valve pad “1” and the valve lifter “2”.
    NOTE:
     Lubricate the valve pad with molybdenum 
    disulfide grease.  Lubricate the valve lifter with molybdenum 
    disulfide oil.
     The valve lifter must turn smoothly when  rotated by hand.
     Install the valve lifter and the valve pad in the 
    correct place.
    f. Install the exhaust and intake camshafts,  timing chain and camshaft caps.
    NOTE:
     Refer to CAMSHAFTS on page 5-8.
     Lubricate the camshaft bearings, camshaft lobes and camshaft journals.
     First, install the exhaust camshaft.
     Align the camshaft marks with the camshaft 
    cap marks.
     Turn the crankshaft counterclockwise several 
    full turns to seat the parts.
    g. Measure the valve clearance again.
    h. If the valve clearance is still out of specifi- cation, repeat all of the valve clearance 
    adjustment steps until the specified clear-
    ance is obtained.

    SYNCHRONIZING THE THROTTLE BODIES
    NOTE:
    Prior to synchronizing the throttle bodies, the 
    valve clearance and the engine idling speed 
    should be properly adjusted and the ignition 
    timing should be checked.
    1. Stand the vehicle on a level surface.
    NOTE:
    Place the vehicle on a suitable stand.
    2. Remove:

    a. With throttle body #1 “2” as standard,  adjust throttle bodies #2 “3”, #3 “4”, and #4 
    “5” using the air screw “1”.
    NOTE:
     After each step, rev the engine two or three times, each time for less than a second, and 
    check the synchronization again.
     If the air screw is removed, turn the screw 3/
    4 turn in and be sure to synchronize the 
    throttle body.
    CAUTION:
    ECA14900
    Do not use the throttle valve adjusting 
    screws to adjust the throttle body syncroni-
    zation.
    NOTE:
    The difference in vacuum pressure between 
    two throttle bodies should not exceed 1.33 kPa 
    (10 mmHg).
