Be a Responsible Owner As tt1e vehicle's owner, you are respon­sible for the safe and proper operation of your motorcycle. Motorcycles are single-t rack vehicles. Their safe use and operation are de­pendent upon the use of proper riding techniques as well as the expertise of the operator. Every operator should know the following requirements before riding this motorcycle. He or she should:

• Obtain thorough instruct ions from a competent source on all aspects of motorcycle operation.

• Observe the warnings and mainte­nance requirements in this Own­er' s Manual.

• Obtain qualified training in safe and proper riding techniques.

• Obtain professional technical ser­vice as indicated in this Owner's Manual and/or when made neces­sary by mechanical conditions.

ill SAFETY INFORMATION

Safe Riding Perform the pre-operation checks each time you use the vehicle to make sure it is in safe operating condition. Failure to inspect or maintain the vehicle properly increases the possibility of an accident or equipment damage. See page 5-1 for a list of pre-operation checks.

• Th is motorcycle is designed to carry the operator and a passen­ger.

• The failure of motorists to detect and recognize motorcycles in traf­fic is the predominating cause of automobile/motorcycle accidents. Many accidents have been caused by an automobile driver who did not see the motorcycle. Making you rself conspicuous ap­pears to be very effective in reduc­ing the chance of this type of accident. Therefore: • Wear a brightly colored jacket. • Use extra caution when you are

approaching and passing through intersections, since in-

2-1

tersections are the most likely places for motorcycle accidents to occur.

• Ride where other motorists can see you. Avoid riding in another • motorist's bl ind spot.

• Many accidents involve inexperi­enced operators . In fact, many op­erators who have been involved in accidents do not even have a cu r-rent motorcycle license. • Make sure that you are qualified

and that you only lend your mo­torcycle to other qual ified opera­tors.

• Know your ski lls and limits. Staying with in your limits may help you to avoid an accident.

• We recommend that you prac­tice riding your motorcycle where there is no traffic unti l you have become thoroughly famil­iar with the motorcycle and all of its controls.

• Many accidents have been caused by error of the motorcycle

J Il)

operator. A typical error made by J . -!:t J--

····· ~I= http://www.motorcycle.in.th

Page 10: Yamaha Nouvo LX 135CC Service Manual. Written in English

ill SAFETY INFORMATION the operator is veering wide on a turn due to excessive speed or un­dercornering (insufficient lean an­gie for the speed). • Always obey the speed limit and

never travel faste r than warrant­ed by road and traffic condi­tions.

• Always signal before turning or changing lanes. Make sure that other motorists can see you.

• The posture of the operator and passenger is important for proper control. • The operator should keep both

hands on the handlebar and both feet on the operator foot­rests during operation to main­tain control of the motorcycle.

• The passenger should always hold onto the operator, the seat strap or grab bar, if equipped, with both hands and keep both feet on the passenger footrests. Neve r carry a passenger unless he or she can fi rmly place both feet on the passenger footrests.

• Never ride under the influence of alcohol or other drugs.

Protective apparel The majority of fatal ities from motorcy­cle accidents are the result of head in­juries. The use of a safety helmet is the single most critical factor in the preven­tion or reduction of head injuri es.

• Always wear an approved helmet. • Wear a face shield or goggles.

Wind in your unprotected eyes could contribute to an impairment of vision that could delay seeing a hazard.

• The use of a jacket, heavy boots, trousers, gloves, etc., is effective in preventing or reduc ing abra­sions or lacerations.

• Never wear loose-fitting clothes, otherwise they could catch on the control levers, footrests, or wheels and cause inju ry or an accident.

• Always wear protective cloth ing that covers your legs, ankles, and feet. The engine or exhaust sys-

2-2

tem become very hot during or af­ter operation and can cause bu rns.

• A passenger should also observe the above precautions .

Avoid Carbon Monoxide Poisoning All engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide, a deadly gas. Breath ing car­bon monoxide can cause headaches, dizziness, drowsiness, nausea, confu­sion, and eventually death. Carbon Monoxide is a colorless , odor­less, tasteless gas which may be present even if you do not see or smell any engine exhaust. Deadly levels of carbon monoxide can collect rapidly and you can qu ickly be overcome and unable to save yourself. Also, deadly levels of carbon monoxide can linger for hours or days in enclosed or poorly ventilated areas. If you experience any symptoms of carbon monoxide poison­ing, leave the area immediately, get fresh air, and SEEK MEDICAL TREAT­MENT.

• Do not run engine indoors. Even if you try to ventilate engine exhaust wi th fans or open windows and doors, carbon monoxide can rap­idly reach dangerous levels.

• Do not run engine in poorly venti­lated or partially enclosed areas such as barns, garages, or car­ports.

• Do not run engine outdoors where engine exhaust can be drawn into a building through openings such as windows and doors.

loading Adding accessories or cargo to your motorcycle can adversely affect stabi li­ty and handling if the weight distribution of the motorcycle is changed. To avoid the possibility of an accident, use ex­treme caution when adding cargo or accessories to your motorcycle. Use extra care when riding a motorcycle that has added cargo or accessories. Here, along with the information about accessories below, are some general

ill SAFETY INFORMATION guidelines to follow if loading cargo to your motorcycle: The total weight of the operato r, passenger, accessories and cargo must not exceed the maximum load limit. Operat ion of an overloaded ve­hicle could cause an accident.

Maximum load: 160 kg (353 Ib)

When loading within this weight limit, keep the following in mind:

• Cargo and accessory weight should be kept as low and close to the motorcycle as possible. Se­curely pack your heaviest items as close to the center of the vehicle as possible and make sure to dis­tri bute the weight as evenly as possible on both sides of the mo­torcycle to minimize imbalance or instability.

• Shifting weights can create a sud­den imbalance. Make sure that ac­cessories and cargo are securely

2-3

attached to the motorcycle before riding. Check accessory mounts and cargo restraints frequently. • Properly adjust the suspension

for your load, and check the condition and pressure of your tires.

• Never attach any large or heavy items to the handlebar, front fork, or front fender. These items, including such cargo as sleeping bags, duffel bags, or tents, can create unstable han­dling or a slow steering re­sponse.

• This vehicle is not designed to pull a trailer o r to be attached to a sidecar.

Genuine Yamaha Accessories Choosing accessories for your vehicle is an important decision. Genuine Yamaha accessories, which are avail­able only from a Yamaha dealer, have been designed, tested, and approved by Yamaha for use on your vehicle.

ill SAFETY INFORMATION Many companies with no connection to Yamaha manufacture parts and acces­sories or offer other modifications for Yamaha vehicles. Yamaha is not in a position to test the products that these aftermarket companies produce. Therefore, Yamaha can neither en­dorse nor recommend the use of ac­cessories not sold by Yamaha or modifications not specifically recom­mended by Yamaha, even if sold and installed by a Yamaha dealer.

Aftermarket Parts, Accessories, and Modifications While you may find aftermarket prod­ucts similar in design and quality to genuine Yamaha accessories, recog­nize that some aftermarket accessories or modifications are not suitable be­cause of potential safety hazards to you or others. Install ing aftermarket products or having other modifications performed to you r vehicle that change any of the vehicle's design or operation characteristics can put you and others at greater risk of serious injury or death.

You are responsible for injuries related to changes in the vehicle. Keep the following guidel ines in mind, as well as those provided under "Load­ing" when mounting accessories .

• Never install accessories or carry cargo that would impair the perfor­mance of your motorcycle. Care­fully inspect the accessory before using it to make sure that it does not in any way reduce ground clearance or come ring clearance, limit suspension travel, steering travel or contro l operation, or ob­scure lights or reflectors. • Accessories fitted to the handle­

bar or the front fork area can create instabil ity due to improp­er weight distribution or aerody­namic changes. If accessories are added to the handlebar or front fork area, they must be as lightweight as possible and should be kept to a minimum.

• Bulky or large accessories may seriously affect the stabi lity of the motorcycle due to aerody-

2-4

namic effects. Wind may at­tempt to lift the motorcycle, or the motorcycle may become un­stable in cross winds. These ac­cessories may also cause instability when passing or be­ing passed by large vehicles.

• Certain accessories can dis­place the operator from his or her normal riding position. This improper position limits the free­dom of movement of the opera­tor and may limit control ability, therefore, such accessories are not recommended.

• Use caution when adding electri ­cal accessories. If electrical acces­sories exceed the capacity of the motorcycle's electrical system, an electric failure cou ld result, which could cause a dangerous loss of lights or engine power.

Aftermarket Tires and Rims The tires and rims that came with your motorcycle were designed to match the performance capabilities and to

\~~J I "

if

Page 13: Yamaha Nouvo LX 135CC Service Manual. Written in English

provide the best combination of han­dling, braking , and comfort. Other tires, rims, sizes , and combinations may not be appropriate. Refer to page 7 -18 for t ire specifications and more information on replacing your tires.

ill SAFETY INFORMATION EAUU0030

Helmets Operating this vehicle without an ap­proved motorcycle helmet increases your chances of a severe head injury or death in the event of an accident. The majority of fatalities from motorcycle or scooter accidents are the result of head injuries. The use of a safety helmet is the single most critical factor in the pre­vention or reduction of head inju ries.

Always select an approved motorcycle helmet Pay attention to the following when choosing a motorcycle helmet.

• The helmet must meet the safety standard "TIS".

• The helmet size must match the size of the rider's head.

• Never subject a helmet to heavy shocks.

" OPERATION AND IMPORTANT RIDING POINTS

A WARNING

• Avoid braking hard or suddenly (especially when leaning over to one side), otherwise the scooter may skid or overturn.

• Railroad crossings, streetcar rails, iron plates on road con­struction sites, and manhole covers become extremely slip­pery when weL Therefore, slow down when approaching such areas and cross them with cau­tion.

• Keep in mind that braking on a wet road is much more difficult.

• Ride slowly down a hill, as brak­ing downhill can be very diffi­cult.

1. Close the throttle completely. 2. Apply both front and rear brakes

simultaneously while gradually in­creasing the pressure.

Tips for reducing fuel consumption Fuel consumption depends largely on your riding style. Consider the fol lowing tips to reduce fuel consumption:

• Avoid high engine speeds during acceleration.

• Avoid high engine speeds with no load on the engine.

• Tum the engine oft instead of let­ting it idle for an extended length of time (e.g., in traff ic jams, at traffic lights or at railroad crossings).

Engine break-in There is never a more important period in the life of your engine than the period between 0 and 1000 km (600 mil. For this reason, you should read the follow­ing material carefully. Since the engine is brand new, do not put an excessive load on it for the first 1000 km (600 mil. The various parts in the engine wear and polish themselves to the correct operating clearances. During this period, prolonged full-throt­tle operation or any condition that might result in engine overheating must be avoided.

Troubleshooting Although Yamaha motorcycles receive a thorough inspection before shipment from the factory, trouble may occurdur­ing operation. Any problem in the fuel, compression, or ignition systems, for example, can cause poor starting and loss of power. The following troubleshooting charts represent quick and easy procedures lor checking these vital systems your­self. However, should your motorcycle require any repair, take it to a Yamaha dealer, whose skilled technicians have the necessary tools, experience, and know-how to service the motorcycle properly. Use only genuine Yamaha replace­ment parts. Imitation parts may look like Yamaha parts, but they are often inferior, have a shorter service li fe and can lead to expensive repair bills.

Care While the open design of a motorcycle reveals the attractiveness of the tech­nology. it also makes il more vulnera­ble. Rust and corrosion can develop even if high-quality components are used. A rusty exhaust pipe may go un­noticed on a car, however, il detracts from the overall appearance of a mo­torcycle. Frequent and proper care does nol only comply with the terms 01

the warranty, but it will also keep your motorcycle looking good, extend its life and optimize its petiormance.

Before cleaning 1. Cover the muffler outlet with a

plastic bag after the engine has cooled down.

2. Make sure that all caps and covers as well as all electrical couplers and connectors, including the spark plug cap, are tightly in­stalled.

3. Remove extrem~y stubborn dirt, like oil burnt onto the crankcase, with a degreasing agent and a brush, but never apply such prod· ucts onto seals, gaskets and wheel axles. Always rinse the dirt and degreaser off with water.

Cleaning

• Avoid using strong acidic wheel cleaners, especially on spoked wheels. If such products are used on hard-to-remove dirt, do not leave the cleaner on the af­fected area any longer than in­structed. Also, thoroughly rinse the area off with water, immedi­ately dry it, and then apply a corrosion protection spray.

• Improper cleaning can damage plastic parts (such as cowlings, panels, windshields, headlight lenses, meter lenses, etc.) and the mufflers. Use only a soft, clean cloth or sponge with wa-

8-'

ler to clean plastic. However, if the plastic parts cannot be thor­oughly cleaned with waler, di­luted mild detergent with water may be used. Be sure to rinse off any detergent residue using plenty of water, as it is harmful to plastic parts.

• Do not use any harsh chemical products on plastic parts. Be sure to avoid using cloths or sponges which have been in contact with strong or abrasive cleaning products, solvent or thinner, fuel (gasoline), rust re­movers or inhibitors, brake lIu­id, antifreeze or electrolyte.

• Do not use high-pressure washers or steam-jet cleaners since they cause water seep­age and deterioration in the fol­lowing areas: seals (of wheel and swingarm bearings, fork and brakes), electric compo­nents {couplers, connectors,

instruments, switches and lights), breather hoses and vents.

• For scooters equipped with a windshield: 00 not use strong cleaners or hard sponges as they will cause dulling or scratching. Some cleaning compounds for plastic may leave scratches on the wind· shield. Test the product on a small hidden part of the wind­shield to make sure that it does not leave any marks. II the windshield is scratched, use a quality plastic polishing com­pound after washing.

After normal use Remove dirt with warm water, a mild detergent, and a soft, clean sponge, and then rinse thoroughly with clean water. Use a toothbrush or bonlebrush for hard-la-reach areas. Stubborn dirt and insects will come off more easily if

After riding in the rain or near the sea ince sea salt is extremely corrosive car­ry out the following steps after each ride in the rain or near the sea.

1. Clean the motorcycle with cold water and a mild detergent after the engine has cooled down. NO­TICE: Do not use warm water since it increases the corrosive action of the salt. I(G~ ' 011l \ 1

2. Apply a corrosion protection spray on all metal, including chrome­and nickel-plated, surlaces to pre­vent corrosion.

After cleaning 1. Dry the motorcycle with a chamois

or an abSOlbing cloth. 2. Use a chrome polish 10 shine

chrome, aluminum and stainless­sleel parts, including the exhaust system. (Even the Ihermally in-

8-2

duced discoloring of stainless­sleel exhaust systems can be re­moved through polishing.)

3. To prevent corrosion, it is recom­mended to apply a corrosion pro­tection spray on all metal, including chrome- and nickel-plat­ed, surtaces.

4. Use spray oil as a universal clean­er to remove any remaining dirt.

5. Touch up minor paint damage caused by stones, etc.

6. Wax all painted surfaces. 7. Let the motorcycle dry completely

before storing or covering it.

A WARNING Contaminants on the brakes or tires can cause loss of control.

• Make sure that there is no oil or wax on the brakes or tires. H necessary, clean the brake discs and brake linings with a regular brake disc cleaner or ac­etone, and wash the tires with warm water and a mild deter-gent

MOTORCYCLE CARE AND STORAGE

• Before operating the scooter test its braking perfonnance and cornering behavior.

OTIC • Apply spray oil and wax spar­

ingly and make sure to wipe off any excess.

• Never apply oil or wax to any rubber parts, plastic parts or headlight, taillight and meter lenses, but treat them with a suitable care product

• Avoid using abrasive polishing compounds as they will wear away the paint.

np~--~~--~~~~---c • Consuh a Yamaha dealer for ad-

vice on what products to use.

• Washing, rainy weather or humid climates can cause the headlight lens to fog. Turning the headlight on for a short period of time will help remove the moisture from the lens.

Storage

Short-term Always store your scooter in a cool, dry

place and, if necessary, protect it against dust with a porous cover.

N • Storing the scooter in a poorly

ventilated room or covering it with a tarp, while it is still wet, will allow water and humidity to seep in and cause rust.

• To prevent corrosion, avoid damp cellars, stables (because of the presence of ammonia) and areas where strong chemi­cals are stored.

Long-term Before storing your scooter for several months:

1. Follow all the instructions in the ~Care" section of this chapter.

6-3

2. Drain the carburetor float chamber by loosening the drain boit; this will prevent fuel deposits from building up. Pour the drained fuel into the fuel tank.

3. Fill up the fuel tank and add fuel stabilizer (if available) to prevent the fuel tank hom rusting and the fuel from deteriorating.

4. Per10rm the following steps 10 pro­teet the cylinder, piston rings, etc. from corrosion. a. Remove the spark plug cap

and spark plug. b. Pour a teaspoonful of engine

oil inlo the spark plug bore. c. Install the spark plug cap onto

the spark plug , and then place the spark plug on the cylinder head so that the electrodes are grounded. (This will limit spark~ ing during the next step.)

d. Tum lhe engine over several times with the starter. (This will coat the cylinder wall with oil.) WARNING! To prevent dam-age or injury from sparking,

make sure to ground the spark plug electrodes while turning the engine over. t(W""09!i' l

e. Remove the spark plug cap from the spark plug, and then install the spark plug and the spark plug cap.

5. Lubricate all control cables and the pivoting points of all levers and pedals as well as of the sideslandJ centerstand.

6. Check and, if necessary, correct the lire air pressure, and then lift the scooter so that both 01 its wheels are off the ground. Aherna· lively, tum the wheels a litHe every month in order to prevent the tires from becoming degraded in one spot.

7. Cover the muffler outlet with a plastic bag to prevent moisture from entering it.

8. Remove the banery and fully charge it. Store it in a cool, dry place and charge it once a month. Do not store the battery in an ex-
