WARNING
This motorcycle is designed and manufactured for off-road use only. It is il-

Introduction
AN IMPORTANT NOTE TO PARENTS:
This motorcycle is not a toy. Before you let your child ride this motorcycle, you
should understand the instructions and warnings in this Owner’s Manual. Then be
sure your child understands and will follow them. Children differ in skills, physical
abilities, and judgment. Some children may not be able to operate a motorcycle
safely. Parents should supervise their child’s use of the motorcycle at all times.
Parents should permit continued use only if they determine that the child has the
ability to operate the motorcycle safely.
Your motorcycle is equipped with an adjustable speed limiter. Yamaha recom-
mends that all beginners start off with the speed limiter adjusting screw turned in
to limit the amount of speed available while they learn. The adjusting screw may
be gradually turned out to increase maximum speed as the beginner becomes
more familiar with operating the motorcycle. Parents should decide when to ad-
just the motorcycle for more power as their youngster’s riding skills improve.
Motorcycles are single track vehicles. Their safe use and operation are de-
pendent upon the use of proper riding techniques as well as the expertise of
the operator. Every operator should know the following requirements before
riding this motorcycle.
He or she should:
Obtain thorough instructions from a competent source on all aspects of mo-
torcycle operation.
Observe the warnings and maintenance requirements in this Owner’s Manu-
al.
Obtain qualified training in safe and proper riding techniques.
Obtain professional technical service as indicated in this Owner’s Manual
and/or when made necessary by mechanical conditions.

Point the front wheel straight
ahead on the trailer or in the truck
bed, and choke it in a rail to pre-
vent movement.
Shift the transmission in gear (for
models with a manual transmis-
sion).
Secure the motorcycle with tie- 2
downs or suitable straps that are
attached to solid parts of the mo-
torcycle, such as the frame or up-
per front fork triple clamp (and not,
for example, to rubber-mounted
handlebars or turn signals, or
parts that could break). Choose
the location for the straps carefully
so the straps will not rub against
painted surfaces during transport.
The suspension should be com-
pressed somewhat by the tie-
downs, if possible, so that the mo-
torcycle will not bounce exces-
sively during transport.

Troubleshooting
Although Yamaha motorcycles receive
a thorough inspection before shipment
from the factory, trouble may occur
during operation. Any problem in the
fuel, compression, or ignition systems,
for example, can cause poor starting
and loss of power.
The following troubleshooting chart
represents a quick and easy procedure
for checking these vital systems your-
self. However, should your motorcycle
require any repair, take it to a Yamaha
dealer, whose skilled technicians have
the necessary tools, experience, and
know-how to service the motorcycle
properly.
Use only genuine Yamaha replace-
ment parts. Imitation parts may look
like Yamaha parts, but they are often
inferior, have a shorter service life and 7
can lead to expensive repair bills.
EWA15142
WARNING
When checking the fuel system, do
not smoke, and make sure there are
no open flames or sparks in the ar-
ea, including pilot lights from water
heaters or furnaces. Gasoline or
gasoline vapors can ignite or ex-
plode, causing severe injury or prop-
erty damage.

Before cleaning
1. Cover the muffler outlet with a
plastic bag after the engine has
cooled down.
2. Make sure that all caps and cov-
ers as well as all electrical cou-
plers and connectors, including
the spark plug cap, are tightly in-
stalled. 8
3. Remove extremely stubborn dirt,
like oil burnt onto the crankcase,
with a degreasing agent and a
brush, but never apply such prod-
ucts onto seals, gaskets, sprock-
ets, the drive chain and wheel
axles. Always rinse the dirt and
degreaser off with water.

WARNING
Improper motorcycle use can result in SEVERE INJURY or
DEATH.
NEVER operate:
• without proper training or instruction.
• at speeds too fast for your skills or the conditions.
• on public roads—a collision can occur with another vehicle.
• with a passenger—passengers affect balance and steering and
increase risk of losing control.
ALWAYS:
• use proper riding techniques to avoid vehicle overturns on hills and
rough terrain and in turns.
• avoid paved surfaces—pavement may seriously affect handling and
control.
