If followed, these preventive maintenance procedures will ensure more reliable vehicle operation, a

PERIODIC MAINTENANCE CHART FOR THE EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM
TIP
• The annual checks must be performed every year, except if a kilometer-based maintenance,
or for the UK, a mileage-based maintenance, is performed instead.
• From 50000 km (30000 mi), repeat the maintenance intervals starting from 10000 km (6000 mi).
• Items marked with an asterisk should be performed by a Yamaha dealer as they require special
tools, data and technical skills.
