The drive chain must be cleaned and
lubricated at the intervals specified in

wet areas. Service the drive chain as
follows.
NOTICE
The drive chain must be lubricated
after washing the motorcycle and
riding in the rain.
TIP
For a thorough cleaning, have a
Yamaha dealer remove the drive chain
and soak it in solvent.
