1-1 GEN INFO GENERAL INFORMATION MACHINE IDENTIFICATION FRAME SERIAL NUMBER The frame serial number 1 is located on the right-hand side of the frame (just below the front of the seat). 1 ENGINE SERIAL NUMBER The engine serial number 1 is located on the right-hand side of the crank- case. NOTE: Designs and specifications are subject to change without notice. 1 MACHINE IDENTIFICATION
1-2 GEN INFO IMPORTANT INFORMATION IMPORTANT INFORMATION PREPARATION FOR REMOVAL AND DISASSEMBLY 1.Remove all dirt, mud, dust, and foreign material before removal and disassembly. While cleaning, take care to protect the electrical parts, such as relays, switches, motor, resistors, controllers, etc., from high pressure water splashes. 2. Use proper tools and cleaning equipment. Refer to “SPECIAL TOOLS”. 3.When disassembling the machine, keep mated parts together. This includes gears, cylinders, pistons, and other parts that have been “mated” through normal wear. Mated parts must be reused or replaced as an assembly. 4. During disassembly of the machine, clean all parts and place them in trays in the order of disassembly. This will speed up assembly time and help ensure that all parts are reinstalled correctly. 5.Keep all parts away from any source of fire. 6.Be sure to keep to the tightening torque specifications. When tighten- ing bolts, nuts, and screws, start with those that have larger diameters, and proceed from the inside to the outside in a crisscross pattern. ALL REPLACEMENT PARTS We recommend using genuine Yamaha parts for all replacements. Use oil and grease recommended by Yamaha for assembly and adjustments. 1
1-3 GEN INFO IMPORTANT INFORMATION GASKETS, OIL SEALS, AND O-RINGS 1.All gaskets, seals, and O-rings should be replaced when an engine is overhauled. All gasket surfaces, oil seal lips, and O-rings must be cleaned. 2.Properly oil all mating parts and bearings during reassembly. Apply grease to the oil seal lips. LOCK WASHERS/PLATES AND COTTER PINS All lock washers/plates 1 and cotter pins must be replaced if they are removed. Lock tab(s) should be bent along the bolt or nut flat(s) after the bolt or nut has been properly tightened. BEARINGS AND OIL SEALS Install the bearings 1 and oil seals 2 with their manufacturer’s marks or numbers facing outwards. (In other words, the stamped letters must be on the side exposed to view.) When installing oil seals, apply a light coating of lightweight lithium base grease to the seal lips. Oil the bearings liberally when installing. CAUTION: Do not use compressed air to spin the bearings dry. This causes damage to the surface of the bearings. CIRCLIPS All circlips should be inspected carefully before reassembly. Always replace piston pin clips after one use. Replace misshapen circlips. When installing a circlip 1, make sure that the sharp edged corner 2 is posi- tioned opposite to the thrust 3 it receives. See the sectional view. 4 Shaft LOCTITE ® After installing fasteners that have LOCTITE ® applied, wait 24 hours before using the machine. This will give the LOCTITE ® time to dry prop- erly.
1-4 GEN INFO SPECIAL TOOLS SPECIAL TOOLS Some special tools are necessary for a completely accurate tune-up and assembly. Using the correct special tool will help prevent damage that can be caused by the use of improper tools or improvised techniques. NOTE: • Be sure to use the correct part number when ordering the tool, since the part number may differ according to country. • For USA and Canada, use part number starting with “YB-”, “YM-”, “YU-”, “YS-” or “ACC-”. • For others, use part number starting with “90890-”. FOR TUNE UP • Dial gauge P/N: YU-03097 90890-03097 This gauge is used for run out measurement. • Fuel level gauge P/N: YM-01312-A 90890-01312 This gauge is used to measure the fuel level in the float chamber. • Angle gauge Use goods on the market. This tool is used to tightening the torque. • Steering linkage alignment plate P/N: YS-01487 90890-01487 Locks steering relay arms in place while adjusting the steering linkage for front-end alignment. FOR ENGINE SERVICE • Piston pin puller P/N: YU-01304 90890-01304 This tool is used to remove the piston pin.
1-5 GEN INFO SPECIAL TOOLS • Rotor holding puller P/N: YU-33270-B 90890-01362 • Flywheel puller attachment P/N: YM-33282 90890-04089 These tools are used to remove the magneto rotor. • Cooling system tester P/N: YU-24460-01 90890-01325 • Adapter P/N: YU-33984 90890-01352 This tester and its adapter are used for checking the cooling system. • Oil filter wrench P/N: YM-01469 90890-01469 This tool is needed to loosen or tighten the oil filter cartridge. • Vacuum gauge P/N: YU-44456 90890-03094 This guide is used to synchronize the carburetors. • Compression gauge set P/N: YU-33223 (compression gage) 90890-03081 P/N: YU-33223-4 (adapter) 90890-04136 These tools are used to measure engine compression. • Valve spring compressor set P/N: YM-04019 (valve spring compressor) 90890-04019 P/N: YM-04108 (attachment) 90890-04108 These tools are used to remove or install the valve assemblies.

There are 3 ways to approach car maintenance/repair.
Call your Dealer/Service Center/Workshop. Pay $60 to get your vehicle towed or transported to their shop. Wait a few days for an appointment. Get your car back about a week later, and be a few hundred dollars out of pocket.
Try and fix the problem on your own. Create a shopping list and go and buy a few dollars worth of parts. Start the repair/service. Realize you don't have the rights parts or knowledge to fix it. Go and buy more parts to replace the ones you broke trying to fix the original problem. Keep trying/buying until eventually you are having a breakdown yourself.
Get the original OEM Factory Service Manual for your vehicle from A1 Manuals. Read and study it to determine the problem/resolution. Create a shopping list and buy a few dollars worth of parts that you actually need. Start the repair...and fix it first time.
THIS MANUAL COVERS:
Repair and maintenance procedures from the people that actually manufactured your vehicle. You cannot get more detailed or accurate information than you will find in the OEM Factory Service Manual. This is the manual that the dealerships use to fix/repair/service your vehicle. Diagrams/photos/troubleshooting procedures/maintenance schedules etc are all included to help you fix your problem fast.
GET THE INFORMATION YOU WANT NOW:
With this manual, you can find the information you require much faster than a conventional paper repair book. Fully indexed and searchable manuals are portable and practical. Read it in your smartphone as well as your pc/mac/tablet. You can print out just the information you need to complete your job, then dispose of the printouts later when you are done.
