HYDROSTATIC TRANSMISSION WHEN DRIVING Driving a two wheel driven motorcycle is different from driving a conventional motorcycle. The front wheel drive system, during certain conditions, affects the feeling of the handlebar. In sand, mud and snow the traction is greatly improved. However in conditions with deep ruts and slippery surfaces the two wheel drive system might contribute to that the motorcycle feels heavier and more brutal.
ADJUSTMENTS The pulling force, at a given circumstance, can be varied by changing the rear wheel sprocket up or down one tooth. If we increase the no by one tooth the pump rotates faster in relation to the hydraulic motor, thereby increasing the pressure in the system and increasing the pulling force of the front wheel. It must be understood that even the reaction forces in the handlebar increases. From experience the gain is negligible. When decreasing with one/two/three teeth the pulling force is reduced.
SPECIAL TOOLS GEN INFO SPECIAL TOOLS The following special tools are necessary for complete and accurate tune-up and assembly.

MAINTENANCE INTERVALS INSP ADJ REGULAR INSPECTION AND ADJUSTMENTS MAINTENANCE INTERVALS The following schedule is intended as a general guide to maintenance and lubrication. Bear in mind that such factors as weather, terrain, geographical location, and individual usage will alter the required maintenance and lubrication intervals. If you are a doubt as to what intervals to follow in maintaining and lubricating your machine, consult your Yamaha dealer.
STEERING DAMPER ADJUSTMENT INSP ADJ STEERING DAMPER ADJUSTMENT The steering damper is a hydraulic damper that counteracts wobble, alleviates shock against the front wheel and prevents head shake/cast by the motorcycle, which gives safer riding. The damper is fitted on the upper fork crown, in the centre over the steering stem 1.
STEERING DAMPER ADJUSTMENT INSP ADJ Damping sweep controls Damping sweep controls 5 are located on each side off the damper body. Damping is in position 2, (12 o´clock), when delivered from Yamaha. This setting is fitted for enduro, motocross and off-road riding. WARNING Always ensure that valve setting is within the permitted ranges. NOTE: Both damping sweep controls must always be set in identical positions. Always use positions according to the clock. Suitable starting position: Motocross pos.
STEERING DAMPER ADJUSTMENT INSP ADJ Change the fluid regularly. In new dampers after 10 hours riding and then every 20 hours riding. Use only recommended fluid that is tested and approved by Yamaha. We cannot guarantee fully acceptable operation using other fluids. NOTE: Regular maintenance and inspection counteracts possible malfunction. If the steering damper needs service, Öhlins agents have the proper tools and know-how to solve all technical problems.
