Loading
The total weight of the operator, passenger, accessories and cargo must not exceed the maxi-
mum load limit of 180 kg.
When loading within these weight limits, keep the following in mind:
1. Cargo and accessory weight should be kept as low and close to the motorcycle as possible.
Be sure to distribute the weight as evenly as possible on both sides of the machine to mini-
mize imbalance or instability.
2. Shifting weights can create a sudden imbalance. Make sure that accessories and cargo are
securely attached to the motorcycle before riding. Recheck accessory mounts and cargo
restraints frequently.
3. Never attach any large or heavy items to the handlebars, front forks, or front fender. These
items, including such cargo as sleeping bags, duffle bags, or tents, can create unstable
handling or slow steering response.
Accessories
Genuine Yamaha accessories have been specifically designed for use on this motorcycle. Since
Yamaha cannot test all other accessories which may be available, you must personally be
responsible for the proper selection, installation and use of non-Yamaha accessories. You
should use extreme caution when selecting and installing any accessories.
Keep in mind these guidelines for mounting accessories in addition to those provided under
“LOADING”.
