Checking and lubricating the
cables
The operation of all control cables
and the condition of the cables
should be checked before each ride,
and the cables and cable ends should
be lubricated if necessary. If a cable is
damaged or does not move smoothly,
have a Yamaha dealer check or repla-
ce it.
WARNING! Damage to the
outer housing of cables may result
in internal rusting and cause inter-
ference with cable movement.
Replace damaged cables as soon
as possible to prevent unsafe con-
ditions.

Checking and lubricating the
throttle grip and cable
The operation of the throttle grip
should be checked before each ride.
In addition, the cable should be lubri-
cated by a Yamaha dealer at the inter-
vals specified in the periodic mainte-
nance chart.
The throttle cable is equipped with a
rubber cover. Make sure that the
cover is securely installed. Even
though the cover is installed correctly,
it does not completely protect the
cable from water entry. Therefore, use
care not to pour water directly onto
the cover or cable when washing the
vehicle. If the cable or cover becomes
dirty, wipe clean with a moist cloth.

The Autolube pump is a vital and sop-
histicated component of the engine,
which must be adjusted by a Yamaha
dealer at the intervals specified in the
periodic maintenance and lubrication
chart.
Recommended lubricant:
Yamaha Chain and Cable Lube or
engine oil
