WARRANTY TRANSFER: To transfer the warranty
from the original purchaser to any subsequent pur­
chaser, it is imperative that the machine be inspected
and registered for warranty by an authorized Yamaha
motorcycle dealer. In order for this warranty to remain

WARRANTY QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS CUSTOMER SERVICE
Q. What costs are my responsibility during the warranty period?
A. The customer's responsibility includes all costs of normal maintenance services, non­
warranty repairs, accident and collision damage, and oil, oil filters, air filters, spark
plugs, and brake shoes or pads.
Q. What are some examples of "abnormal" strain, neglect, or abuse?
A. These terms are general and overlap each other in areas. Specific examples include:
Running the machine out of oil; sustained high-rpm, full-throttle use; operating the
machine with a broken or damaged part which causes another part to fail; damage
or failure due to improper or careless transporation and or tie down; and so on. If
you have any specific questions on operation or maintenance, please contact your
dealer for advice.
Q. Does the warranty cover incidental costs such as towing or transportation due to
a failure?
A. No. The warranty is limited to repair of the machine itself.
Q. May I perform any or all of the recommended maintenance shown in the Owner's
Manual instead of having the dealer do them?
A. Yes, if you are a qualified mechanic and follow the procedures specified in the Owner's
and Service Manual. We do recommend, however, that items requiring special tools
or equipment be done by a Yamaha motorcycle dealer.
Q. Will the warranty be void or cancelled if I do not operate or maintain my new
motorcycle exactly as specified in the Owner's Manual?
A. No. The warranty on a new motorcycle cannot be "voided" or "cancelled." However,
if a particular failure is caused by operation or maintenance other than as shown
in the Owner's Manual, that failure may not be covered under warranty.
Q. What responsibility does my dealer have under this warranty?
A. Each Yamaha motorcycle dealer is expected to:
1. Completely set up every new machine before sale.
2. Explain the operation, maintenance, and warranty requirements to your satisfa-
tion at the time of sale, and upon your request at any later date.
In addition, each Yamaha motorcycle dealer is held responsible for his setup, service
and warranty repair work.
Q. Is the warranty transferable to second owners?
A. Yes. The remainder of the existing warranty can be transferred upon request. The
unit has to be inspected and re-registered by an authorized Yamaha motorcycle dealer
for the warranty coverage to remain effective.
If your machine requires warranty service, you must take it to any authorized
Yamaha motorcycle dealer within the continental United States. Be sure to
bring your warranty registration identification or other valid proof of the
original date of purchase. If a question or problem arises regarding warranty,
first contact the owner of the dealership. Since all warranty matters are
handled at the dealer level, this person is in the best position to help you.
