The following procedure applies to all of the valves and valve seats.
1. Eliminate:
2. Check:
3. Measure:
a. Apply Mechanic's blueing dye (Dykem) "b" onto the valve face.
b. Install the valve into the cylinder head.
c. Press the valve through the valve guide and onto the valve seat to make a clear impression.
d. Measure the valve seat width.
NOTE:
Where the valve seat and valve face contacted one another, the blueing will have been removed.
4. Lap:
NOTE:
After replacing the cylinder head or replacing the valve and valve guide, the valve seat and valve face should be lapped.
a. Apply a coarse lapping compound "a" to the valve face.
CAUTION: Do not let the lapping compound enter the gap between the valve stem and the valve guide. |
b. Apply molybdenum disulfide oil onto the valve stem.
c. Install the valve into the cylinder head.
d. Turn the valve until the valve face and valve seat are evenly polished, then clean off all of the lapping compound.
NOTE:
For the best lapping results, lightly tap the valve seat while rotating the valve back and forth between your hands.
e. Apply a fine lapping compound to the valve face and repeat the above steps.
f. After every lapping procedure, be sure to clean off all of the lapping compound from the valve face and valve seat.
g. Apply Mechanic's blueing dye (Dykem) "b" onto the valve face.
h. Install the valve into the cylinder head.
i. Press the valve through the valve guide and onto the valve seat to make a clear impression.
j. Measure the valve seat width "c" again. If the valve seat width is out of specification, reface and lap the valve seat.
Adjusting the drive chain slack
NOTE:
The drive chain slack must be checked at the
tightest point on the chain.
CAUTION:A drive chain that is too tight will
overload
the engine and other vital parts, and one that
is too loose can skip and damage the swingarm
or cause an accident. Therefore, keep
the drive ...
Checking the lean angle sensor
1. Remove:
Lean angle sensor
2. Check:
Lean angle sensor output voltage
Out of specification Replace.
a. Connect the lean angle sensor to the wire
harness.
b. Connect the pocket tester (DC 20 V) to the
lean angle sensor coupler as shown.
Positive tester probe
yellow/green "1"

Checking and lubricating the sidestand
Checking and lubricating the sidestand
The operation of the sidestand should
be checked before each ride, and the
sidestand pivot and metal-to-metal
contact surfaces should be lubricated if
necessary.
WARNING
If the sidestand does not move up
and down smoothly, have a Yamaha
deal ...
