Your Yamaha engine has been designed to
use premium unleaded gasoline with a pump
octane number [(R+M)/2] of 91 or higher, or a
research octane number of 95 or higher.
If the recommended fuel is not used, the en-
gine may not perform as it should.
NOTICE
ECS00085
Oxygenated fuels (gasohol) containing a
maximum 10% of ethanol (E10) can be
used, although richer jetting may be re-
quired to prevent engine damage. Con-
sult a Yamaha dealer. Gasohol
containing methanol is not recommend-
ed.
Make sure that snow or ice does not en-
ter the fuel tank when refueling.
Do not use alcohol deicers or water ab-
sorbing additives with oxygenated fuel.
The fuel tank should be filled with the
recommended gasoline. The use of oth-
er gasoline will cause severe damage to
internal engine parts, such as the valves
and piston rings, as well as to the ex-
haust system.

Suspension
The suspension can be adjusted to suit rider
preference. Softer settings, for example, may
provide greater rider comfort, while harder
settings may allow more precise handling
and control over certain types of terrain or
riding conditions.
If you are not familiar with suspension adjust-
ments, have a Yamaha dealer make these
adjustments.
WARNING
EWS00152
Read and understand the following infor-
mation before handling shock absorbers
that contain highly pressurized nitrogen
gas.
Do not tamper with or attempt to open
the cylinder assemblies.
Do not subject the shock absorbers to
an open flame or other high heat source.
This may cause the unit to explode due
to excessive gas pressure.
Do not deform or damage the cylinders
in any way. Cylinder damage will result
in poor damping performance.
Do not dispose of a damaged or worn
out shock absorber yourself. Take the
shock absorber to a Yamaha dealer for
any service.
TIP
A special wrench can be obtained at a
Yamaha dealer.
