Drive chain lubrication
The chain consists of many parts
which work with each other. If the
chain is not maintained properly, it
will wear out quickly. Therefore, the
chain must be serviced regularly.
This service is especially necessary
when riding in dusty areas. This
motorcycle is equipped with a sealed
type chain. Steam cleaning, high-
pressure washers, and solvents can
damage the drive chain, so do not
use these for cleaning it. Use only
kerosene to clean the drive chain.
Wipe it dry, and thoroughly lubricate it
with SAE 30 ~ 50W motor oil. Do not
use any other lubricants on the drive
chain. They may contain solvents
that could damage the sealed chain.

ing the motorcycle or riding in the
rain.

Cable inspection and
lubrication

w
Damage to the outer housing of
cables may lead to internal rusting
and interfere with the cable move-
ment. Replace damaged cables as
soon as possible to prevent unsafe
conditions.
Lubricate the cables and cable ends.
If a cable does not operate smoothly,
ask a Yamaha dealer to replace it.
Recommended lubricant:
Engine oil
EAU00773
Throttle cable and grip
lubrication
The throttle twist grip assembly
should be greased at the time that
the cable is lubricated, since the grip
must be removed to get at the end of
the throttle cable. After removing the
screws, hold the end of the cable up
in the air and put in several drops of
lubricant. With the throttle grip disas-
sembled, coat the metal surface of
the grip assembly with a suitable all-
purpose grease.
