Replacing the air filter element
The air filter element should be re-
placed at the intervals specified in the
periodic maintenance and lubrication
chart. Replace the air filter element
more frequently if you are riding in un-
usually wet or dusty areas.
1. Remove the seat. (See page
3-18.)
2. Remove the fuel tank bolts, and
then lift the fuel tank away from the
air filter case.
3. Remove the air filter case cover by
removing the screws. NOTICE:
When removing the air filter
case cover, be careful not to al-
low foreign objects to drop into
the air intake manifold.
[ECA12881]
4. Pull the air filter element out.
5. Insert a new air filter element into
the air filter case. NOTICE: Make
sure that the air filter element is
properly seated in the air filter
case. The engine should never
be operated without the air filter
element installed, otherwise the
piston(s) and/or cylinder(s) may
become excessively worn.
[ECA10481]
6. Install the air filter case cover by in-
stalling the screws.
7. Place the fuel tank in its original
position. Make sure that the fuel
hoses are properly connected and
routed, and are not pinched. Be
sure to place the hoses in their
original position. WARNING! Be-
fore placing the fuel tank in the
original position, make sure that
all hoses (i.e., fuel hose, fuel
tank breather hose, fuel tank
overflow hose) are not dam-
aged, that they are properly con-
nected and routed, and that they
are not pinched. If any hose is
damaged, have a Yamaha dealer
replace the hose before starting
