Tachometer
The electric tachometer allows the rid-
er to monitor the engine speed and
keep it within the ideal power range.
When the key is turned to “ON”, the ta-
chometer needle sweeps once across
the r/min range and then returns to
zero r/min in order to test the electrical
circuit.

Do not operate the engine in the ta-
chometer red zone.
Red zone: 9000 r/min and above
Fuel meter
The fuel meter indicates the amount of
fuel in the fuel tank. The display seg-
ments of the fuel meter disappear to-
wards “E” (Empty) as the fuel level
decreases. When the last segment
starts flashing, refuel as soon as possi-
ble.
When the key is turned to “ON”, all dis-
play segments come on once in order
to test the electrical circuit.
This fuel meter is equipped with a self-
diagnosis system. If a problem is de-
tected in the electrical circuit, all dis-
play segments start flashing. If this
occurs, have a Yamaha dealer check
the electrical circuit.
Eco indicator
This indicator comes on when the vehi-
cle is being operated in an environ-
mentally friendly, fuel-efficient manner.
The indicator goes off when the vehicle
is stopped.
Consider the following tips to reduce
fuel consumption:
Avoid high engine speeds during
acceleration.
Travel at a constant speed.
