Drive belt
The drive belt should be visually in-
spected before each ride. Check for
excessive wear, damage, and dirt. Al-
so, the drive belt tension must be
checked and adjusted by a Yamaha
dealer at the intervals specified in the
periodic maintenance chart.
To check the drive belt
1. On a level surface, place the vehi-
cle on its centerstand.
2. Rotate the rear wheel and check
the belt surface for signs of wear
or damage.
3. If cracks, excessive wear, or dam-
age is found, have the belt in-
spected or replaced by your
Yamaha dealer.
4. If the drive belt or drive belt
sprocket is dirty, remove the drive
belt covers by removing the bolts
and quick fasteners.
5. Clean the drive belt and remove
any debris from the drive belt
sprocket. NOTICE: Do not allow
dirt or sand to accumulate in the
drive belt area, otherwise the
drive belt will wear out quickly.
