Periodic maintenance and adjustment
WARNING
 Have a Yamaha dealer replace
excessively worn tires. Besides
being illegal, operating the vehi-
cle with excessively worn tires
decreases riding stability and
can lead to loss of control.
 The replacement of all wheel
and brake-related parts, includ-
ing the tires, should be left to a
Yamaha dealer, who has the
necessary professional knowl-
edge and experience to do so.
 Ride at moderate speeds after
7
changing a tire since the tire
surface must first be "broken
in" for it to develop its optimal
characteristics.
