or another high-quality windshield
cleaner. Some cleaning compounds for
plastics may leave scratches on the
windshield. Before using such clean-
ers, test an area of the windshield
which does not affect your visibility and
which cannot be easily recognized.
After cleaning the motorcycle
Apply Yamaha Silicone Wax or another
high-quality automotive-type wax on all
painted and chrome-plated surfaces.
Avoid combination cleaner-waxes,
since many contain abrasives that may
mar the paint or protective finish. When
finished, start the engine and let it idle
for several minutes.

Storage
Long term storage (60 days or more) of
your motorcycle will require some pre-
ventive measures to guard against de-
terioration. After the motorcycle has
been thoroughly cleaned, prepare it for
storage as follows:
1. Fill the fuel tank with fresh fuel and
add the following amount of
Yamaha Fuel Conditioner and Sta-
bilizer or another high-quality fuel
stabilizer:
1 fluid oz per gallon or 7.5 ml per li-
ter
Operate the engine for several
minutes to insure the newly condi-
tioned fuel enters the entire fuel
system and carburetors.
NOTE:
Use of Yamaha Fuel Conditioner and
Stabilizer eliminates the need to drain
the fuel system. If necessary, have a
Yamaha dealer drain the fuel system.
2. Remove the spark plugs and pour
about one tablespoon of SAE
10W-30 or SAE 20W-40 engine oil
in each spark plug bore. Install the
spark plugs and ground the spark
plug leads to prevent sparking
while turning the engine over sev-
eral times to coat the cylinder walls
with oil.
WARNING
EWA10850
To prevent sparking, make sure to
remove the spark plug leads and
ground them before using the start-
er motor to crank the engine.
3. Lubricate all control cables.
NOTE:
Use a Yamaha Power Cable Luber and
Yamaha Lube Zall or another high-
quality equivalent to pressure-lubricate
the cables and to purge out any mois-
ture between the inner and outer ca-
bles.
4. Block the frame up so that both of
its wheels are off the ground.
5. Cover the exhaust pipes with plas-
tic bags to prevent moisture from
entering them.
