WARNING_
Proper loading of your motorcycleis important for several characteris-tics of your motorcycle, such ashandling, braking, performance andsafety. Do not carry loosely packeditems that can shift. Securely packyour heaviest items close to thecenter of the motorcycle, and dis-tribute the weight evenly from sideto side. Properly adjust the suspen-sion for your load, and check thecondition and pressure of your tires.NEVER OVERLOAD YOUR MOTOR-CYCLE. Make sure that the totalweight of the cargo, rider, passen-ger, and accessories (cowling, sad-dlebags, etc. if approved for thismodel) does not exceed the maxi-mum load of the motorcycle. Opera-tion of an overloaded motorcyclecould cause tire damage, an acci-dent, or even injury. _

Troubleshooting Although Yamaha motorcycles receivea thorough inspection before shipmentfrom the factory, trouble may occur dur-ing operation. Any problem in the fuel,compression, or ignition systems, forexample, can cause poor starting andloss of power.The following troubleshooting chartrepresents a quick and easy procedurefor checking these vital systems your-self. However, should your motorcyclerequire any repair, take it to a Yamahadealer, whose skilled technicians havethe necessary tools, experience, andknow-how to service the motorcycleproperly.Use only genuine Yamaha replace-ment parts. Imitation parts may looklike Yamaha parts, but they are ofteninferior, have a shorter service life andcan lead to expensive repair bills.

AUTION:� Storing the motorcycle in a
poorly ventilated room or cover-ing it with a tarp, while it is stillwet, will allow water and humid-ity to seep in and cause rust.
� To prevent corrosion, avoiddamp cellars, stables (becauseof the presence of ammonia)and areas where strong chemi-cals are stored.
Long-termBefore storing your motorcycle for sev-eral months:
1. Follow all the instructions in the“Care” section of this chapter.
2. For motorcycles equipped with afuel cock that has an “OFF” posi-tion: Turn the fuel cock lever to“OFF”.
3. Drain the carburetor float cham-bers by loosening the drain bolts;this will prevent fuel deposits frombuilding up. Pour the drained fuelinto the fuel tank.
4. Fill up the fuel tank and add fuelstabilizer (if available) to preventthe fuel tank from rusting and thefuel from deteriorating.
5. Perform the following steps to pro-tect the cylinders, piston rings, etc.from corrosion.a. Remove the spark plug caps
and spark plugs.b. Pour a teaspoonful of engine
