WARNING
EWA10510
Proper loading of your vehicle is im-
portant for several characteristics of
your vehicle, such as handling,
braking, performance and safety. Do
not carry loosely packed items that
can shift. Securely pack your heavi-
est items close to the center of the
vehicle, and distribute the weight
evenly from side to side. Properly
adjust the suspension for your load,
and check the condition and pres-
sure of your tires. NEVER OVER-
LOAD YOUR VEHICLE. Make sure
that the total weight of the cargo, rid-
er,
passenger,
and
accessories
(cowling, saddlebags, etc. if ap-
proved for this model) does not ex-
ceed the maximum load of the
vehicle. Operation of an overloaded
vehicle could cause tire damage, an
accident, or even injury.
Tire inspection
Always check the tires before operating
the motorcycle. If a tire tread shows
crosswise lines (minimum tread depth),
if the tire has a nail or glass fragments
in it, or if the sidewall is cracked, con-
tact a Yamaha dealer immediately and
have the tire replaced.
