ABS (for ABS models)

This model's ABS (anti-lock brake sys-
tem) acts on the front brake system.
Operate the brakes as you normally
would with a conventional brake sys-
tem. If the ABS is activated, a pulsating
sensation may be felt at the front brake
lever. In this situation, continue to ap-
ply the brakes and let the ABS work; do
not release and re-apply the brakes
(i.e., pump the brakes) as this will re-
duce braking effectiveness.
WARNING
Always keep a sufficient distance
from the vehicle ahead to match the
riding speed even with ABS.
The ABS performs best with
long braking distances.
On certain surfaces, such as
rough or gravel roads, the brak-
ing distance may be longer with
the ABS than without.
The ABS is monitored by an ECU,
which will revert the system to conven-
tional braking if a malfunction occurs.

TIP
The ABS performs a self-diagno-
sis test each time the vehicle first
starts off after the main switch is
turned on and the vehicle has trav-
eled at a speed of 10 km/h (6 mi/h)
or higher. During this test, a click-
ing noise may be audible, and a vi-
bration may be felt at the brake
lever, but these do not indicate a
malfunction.
The ABS has a test mode which
allows the owner to experience
EWA16051
the pulsating sensation at the front
brake lever. However, special
tools are required so please con-
sult your Yamaha dealer.
NOTICE
Be careful not to damage the wheel
sensor or wheel sensor rotor; other-
wise, improper performance of the
ABS will result.
