Final transmission oil
The final transmission case must be
checked for oil leakage before each
ride. If any leakage is found, have a
Yamaha dealer check and repair your
motorcycle. In addition, the final trans-
mission oil must be changed as follows
at the intervals specified in the periodic
maintenance and lubrication chart.
1. Start the engine and warm up the
final transmission oil by riding the
motorcycle for several minutes.
2. Stop the engine and then place
the motorcycle on the center-
stand.
3. Place an oil pan under the final
transmission case to collect the
used oil.
4. Remove the final transmission oil
filler cap and its O-ring from the fi-
nal transmission case.
5. Remove the final transmission oil
drain bolt and its gasket to drain
the oil from the final transmission
case.
6. Install the final transmission oil
drain bolt and its new gasket, and
then tighten the bolt to the speci-
fied torque.
TIP
Before installing the final transmis-
sion oil drain bolt and gasket, ap-
ply oil to them.
Wipe off any excess oil after-
wards.
7. Refill with the specified amount of
the recommended final transmis-
sion oil.
WARNING! Make sure
that no foreign material enters
