AN IMPORTANT NOTE TO PARENTS:
This motorcycle is not a toy. Before you let your child ride this motorcycle, you
should understand the instructions and warnings in this Owner’s Manual. Then be
sure your child understands and will follow them. Also read the “PARENTS,
YOUNGSTERS AND OFF-HIGHWAY MOTORCYCLES” and the “TIPS AND
PRACTICE GUIDE FOR THE OFF HIGHWAY MOTORCYCLIST” booklets sup-
plied with this motorcycle when new or available from your Yamaha dealer. Chil-
dren differ in skills, physical abilities, and judgment. Some children may not be
able to operate a motorcycle safely. Parents should supervise their child’s use of
the motorcycle at all times. Parents should permit continued use only if they de-
termine that the child has the ability to operate the motorcycle safely.
Your motorcycle is equipped with an adjustable speed limiter. Yamaha recom-
mends that all beginners start off with the speed limiter adjusting screw turned in
to limit the amount of speed available while they learn. The adjusting screw may
be gradually turned out to increase maximum speed as the beginner becomes
more familiar with operating the motorcycle. Parents should decide when to ad-
just the motorcycle for more power as their youngster’s riding skills improve.
