IMPORTANT INFORMATION
PREPARATION FOR REMOVAL
PROCEDURES
1.Remove all dirt, mud, dust and foreign mate-
rial before removal and disassembly.
2.Use proper tools and cleaning equipment.
Refer to the “SPECIAL TOOLS” section.
3.When disassembling the machine, always
keep mated parts together. This includes
gears, cylinder, piston and other parts that
have been “mated” through normal wear.
Mated parts must always be reused or
replaced as an assembly.
4.During machine disassembly, clean all parts
and place them in trays in the order of disas-
sembly. This will speed up assembly and
allow for the correct installation of all parts.
5.Keep all parts away from any source of fire.
EB101010
REPLACEMENT PARTS
1.Use only genuine Yamaha parts for all
replacements. Use oil and grease recom-
mended by Yamaha for all lubrication jobs.
Other brands may be similar in function and
appearance, but inferior in quality.
EB101020
GASKETS, OIL SEALS AND O-RINGS
1.Replace all gaskets, seals and O-rings when
overhauling the engine. 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.

BEARINGS AND OIL SEALS
1.Install bearings and oil seals so that the
manufacturer’s marks or numbers are visible.
When installing oil seals, apply a light coat-
ing of lightweight lithium base grease to the
seal lips. Oil bearings liberally when install-
ing, if appropriate.

Checking steps:
Turn the crankshaft counterclockwise with a
wrench.
Align the “I” mark 1 on the rotor with the sta-
tionary pointer 2 on the crankcase cover.
When the “I” mark is aligned with the station-
ary pointer, the piston is at the Top Dead
Center (T.D.C.).
NOTE:
When the piston is at the Top Dead Center
(T.D.C.) on the compression stroke, there
should be clearance between the valve stem
tips and their respective rocker arm adjusting
screws.
If there is no clearance, rotate the crankshaft
counterclockwise one turn.

fluid: Otherwise, the rubber seals may
deteriorate, causing leakage and poor
brake performance.
Refill with the same type of brake fluid:
Mixing fluids may result in a harmful
chemical reaction and lead to poor perfor-
mance.
Be careful that water does not enter the
master cylinder when refilling. Water will
significantly lower the boiling point of the
fluid and may result in a vapor lock.

CHECKING THE BATTERY
EB305000
ELECTRICAL
CHECKING THE BATTERY
NOTE:
Since the MF battery is a sealed type battery, it
is not possible to measure the specific gravity
of the electrolyte in order to check the charge
state of the battery. Therefore the charge of
the battery has to be checked by measuring
the voltage at the battery terminals.
CAUTION:
CHARGING METHOD
This is a sealed type battery. Never
remove the sealing caps. If the sealing
caps have been removed, the balance will
not be maintained and battery perfor-
mance will deteriorate.
Charging time, charging current and
charging voltage for the MF battery are
different from those of general type bat-
teries. The MF battery should be charged
as explained in “CHARGING METHOD”. If
the battery is overcharged, the electrolyte
level will drop considerably. Therefore,
take special care when charging the bat-
tery.
WARNING
Battery electrolyte is dangerous; it con-
tains sulfuric acid which is poisonous and
highly caustic.
Always follow these preventive measures:
Avoid bodily contact with electrolyte as it
can cause severe burns or permanent eye
injury.
Wear protective eye gear when handling
or working near batteries.
Antidote (EXTERNAL):
SKIN - Wash with water.
EYES - Flush with water for 15 minutes
and get immediate medical attention.
Antidote (INTERNAL):
Drink large quantities of water or milk fol-
lowed with milk of magnesia, beaten egg
or vegetable oil. Get immediate medical
attention.

CHECKING THE BATTERY
Batteries generate explosive hydrogen gas.
Always follow these preventive measures:
Charge batteries in a well-ventilated area.
Keep batteries away from fire, sparks or
open flames (e.g., welding equipment,
lighted cigarettes, etc.).
DO NOT SMOKE when charging or han-
dling batteries.
KEEP BATTERIES AND ELECTROLYTE
OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.

***********************************************
Battery condition checking steps:
Connect a digital voltmeter to the battery ter-
minals.
NOTE:
The charge state of an MF battery can be
checked by measuring the open-circuit voltage
(i.e. the voltage when the positive terminal is
disconnected).

Check the condition of the battery using the
following charts.
Example:
Open-circuit voltage = 12.0 V
Charging time = 6.5 hours
Charge condition of the battery = 20 ~ 30%
Charging method for MF batteries
CAUTION:
If it is impossible to set the standard
charging current, be careful not to over-
charge.
When charging the battery, be sure to
remove it from the motorcycle. (If charg-
ing has to be done with the battery
mounted on the motorcycle, be sure to
disconnect the wire at the negative termi-
nal.)
Never remove the sealing caps of an MF
battery.
Make sure that the charging clips are in
full contact with the terminal and that they
are not shorted together. (A corroded clip
on the charger may cause the battery to
generate heat in the contact area. A weak
clip spring may cause sparks.)
Before removing the clips from the bat-
tery terminals, be sure to turn off the
charger’s power switch.
The open-circuit voltage variation for the
MF battery, after charging, is shown
below. As shown in the figure, the open-
circuit voltage stabilizes about 30 min-
utes after charging has been completed.
Therefore, wait 30 minutes after charging
is completed before measuring the open-
circuit voltage.

HANDLING THE REAR SHOCK ABSORBER
AND GAS CYLINDER
WARNING
This rear shock absorber and gas cylinder
contain highly compressed nitrogen gas.
Before handling the rear shock absorber or
gas cylinder, read and make sure you
understand the following information. The
manufacturer cannot be held responsible
