Cleaning and lubricating
the drive chain
The drive chain must be cleaned and
lubricated at the intervals specified in
the periodic maintenance and lubrica-
tion chart, otherwise it will quickly
wear out, especially when riding in
dusty or wet areas. Service the drive
chain as follows.

after washing the motorcycle and
riding in the rain.
1. Clean the drive chain with kerosene
and a small soft brush.

To prevent damaging the O-
rings, do not clean the drive
chain with steam cleaners,
high-pressure washers or inap-
propriate solvents.

chain with a special O-ring chain

Checking and lubricating
the cables
The operation of all control cables and
the condition of the cables should be
checked before each ride, and the ca-
bles and cable ends should be lubri-
cated if necessary. If a cable is dam-
aged or does not move smoothly, have
a Yamaha dealer check or replace it.
WARNING! Damage to the outer
sheath may interfere with proper
cable operation and will cause the
inner cable to rust. Replace a dam-
aged cable as soon as possible to
prevent unsafe conditions.
