Periodic maintenance and adjustment
could lead to an accident.
1

Always make sure that the valve
caps are securely installed to
2
prevent air pressure leakage.

Use only the tire valves and
3
valve cores listed below to
avoid tire deflation during a
4 high-speed ride.

The tire air valve original posi-
tion is with the valve cap point-
5
ing to the right side of the
vehicle, perpendicular (90 de-
6
gree right angle) to the axis
(center line) of the wheel. If the
7
tire air valve becomes mis-
aligned, do not twist it back to
8
its original position by yourself.
Otherwise, leakage may occur.

Have a Yamaha dealer inspect
the valve.

WARNING
This motorcycle is fitted with su-
per-high-speed tires. Note the fol-
lowing points in order to make the
most efficient use of these tires.

Use only the specified replace-
ment tires. Other tires may run
the danger of bursting at super
high speeds.

Brand-new tires can have a rela-
tively poor grip on certain road
surfaces until they have been
"broken in". Therefore, it is ad-
visable before doing
8-19
high-speed riding to ride con-
servatively for approximately
100 km (60 mi) after installing a
new tire.

The tires must be warmed up
before a high-speed run.

Always adjust the tire air pres-
sure according to the operating
conditions.
