 The annual checks must be performed every year, except if a kilometer-based maintenance, or for the UK, a
mileage-based maintenance, is performed instead.
 From 30000 km (17500 mi), repeat the maintenance intervals starting from 6000 km (3500 mi).
 Items marked with an asterisk should be performed by a Yamaha dealer as they require special tools, data and tech-
