EBU00530 B. STORAGE Long term storage (60 days or more) of your machine will require some preventive procedures to guard against deterioration. After thoroughly cleaning the machine, prepare for storage as follows: 1. Fill the fuel tank with fresh fuel and add the specified amount of Yamaha Fuel Stabilizer and Conditioner or an equivalent product. Specified amount: 1 oz of stabilizer to each gallon of fuel (or 7.5 cc of stabilizer to each liter of fuel) NOTE: Use of fuel stabilizer and conditioner eliminates the need to drain the fuel system. Consult a Yamaha dealer if the fuel system needs to be drained instead. 2. Remove the spark plug, pour about one tablespoon of SAE 10W30 or 20W40 motor oil in the spark plug hole and reinstall the spark plug. Ground the spark plug wire and turn the engine over several times to coat the cylinder wall with oil. 3. Lubricate all control cables. 4. Block up the frame to raise all wheels off the ground. 5. Tie a plastic bag over the exhaust pipe outlet to prevent moisture from entering. 6. If storing in a humid or salt-air atmosphere, coat all exposed metal surfaces with a light film of oil. Do not apply oil to any rubber parts or the seat cover. 9-3

B. STORAGE
Long term storage (60 days or more) of your
machine will require some preventive proce-
dures to guard against deterioration. After
thoroughly cleaning the machine, prepare for
storage as follows:
1.
Fill the fuel tank with fresh fuel and add
the specified amount of Yamaha Fuel
Stabilizer and Conditioner or an equiva-
lent product.
NOTE:
Use of fuel stabilizer and conditioner elimi-
nates the need to drain the fuel system. Con-
sult a Yamaha dealer if the fuel system needs
to be drained instead.
2.
Remove the spark plug, pour about one
tablespoon of SAE 10W30 or 20W40
motor oil in the spark plug hole and rein-
stall the spark plug. Ground the spark
plug wire and turn the engine over seve-
ral times to coat the cylinder wall with oil.
3.
Lubricate all control cables.
4.
Block up the frame to raise all wheels off
the ground.
5.
Tie a plastic bag over the exhaust pipe
outlet to prevent moisture from entering.
6. If storing in a humid or salt-air atmo-
sphere, coat all exposed metal surfaces
with a light film of oil. Do not apply oil to
any rubber parts or the seat cover.
Specified amount:
1 oz of stabilizer to each gallon of fuel
(or 7.5 cc of stabilizer to each liter of
fuel)
