Final gear oil

The final gear case must be checked
for oil leakage before each ride. If any
leakage is found, have a Yamaha deal-
er check and repair the vehicle. In ad-
dition, the final gear oil level must be
checked and the oil changed as fol-
lows at the intervals specified in the
periodic maintenance and lubrication
chart.
WARNING

rial enters the final gear case.

the tire or wheel.
To check the final gear oil level
1. Place the vehicle on the center-
stand.
TIP
Make sure that the vehicle is posi-
tioned straight up when checking the

sult in a false reading.

and its gasket, and then check the
oil level in the final gear case.
TIP
The oil level should be at the brim of
