‘A. Dry Sump System and Monocross Suspension
The XTS5QJ, which inherits the traditional XT500
dry sump system, features monoshack suspen-
sion, light weight, and a new diamond-shaped
frome with integrated oif tank,B. Four-Valve Engine
Newly designed compact engine equipped with:
§.0.H.C., 4-Valve head, Dual intake and dual ex-
aust ports, gear-driven balancer, Yamaha Duo In-
take System (YDIS), and 5-speed transmission
13C. Yamaha Duo Intake System (YDIS)
For this system, the primary carburetor and the secondary carburetor are equipped as a unit:
A cable-operated-slide type functions as the primary carb, and a vaccum-controlled-slide type
provides a secondary bore. The engine has a 4-valve head, and each carb has its own intake port
and valve. Although each carb bore and intake port is smaller than that of a more conventional
engine, their conbined area is about 20% greater than a single, larger carb and intake layout
Flow efficiency ot both the intake and exhaust sides is substantially improved. From idle to about
kaif throttle, the primary carb supplies the air-fuel mixture, and almost the entire intake charge
enters through just one valve; since the 4-valve layout offsets the intake ports relative to the
cylinder-bore axis, a strong YICS-type swirl is produced in the low-to-medium rpm range.
Combustion efficiency is significantly enhanced, resulting in improved fuel economy. In addi-
tion, the single small bore provides excellent low- and medium-speed throttie response due to
the high air velocity in the venturi. This eliminates the need for a mechanical accelerator pump,
allowing minimal carb height and ample room for the Monocross rear suspension. As the throttle
is turned from half to wide open, a linkage between the carburetors gradually opens the
secondary-carb butterfly. The vaccum-controlled slide in the secondary carb opens as engine
demand builds, providing superb mid-range smoothness. With both slides fully open, the engine
receives more mixture and produces more power than a regular single-carb machine.
SECONDARY
CARB
PRIMARY CARB
1D. Kick Synchronous Automatic Decompression
The kick-starting mechanism is interlinked with one of the exhaust valves, thus automatically
decompressing the combustion chamber for ease in kick-starting. Combined with electronic ad-
vance ignition, kick-starting is free from possible kickback. Correct adjustment is required of this
kick-synchronous automatic decompression system for effective performance.
15E. DC Lighting System (12V 45/45 Watt with sealed beam)
‘The DC lighting system provides a steady power source, enabling al lights to keep bright even at

The Easy-maintenance Lighting System is a
modular design integrating headlight and in-
strument panel into one easy-to-remove-and-
service package. A few securing bolts, an elec-
trical connector, and the Easy-maintenance
Lighting System can be removed for quick service.
7G. Fuel Tank Cap with Check Valve
The fuel cap has a free steel ball inside it to prevent
fuel from spilling out through the cap breather
should the machine turnover.
This steel ball normally settles at the bottom, but
when the machine is inclined to less than 30° from
the ground as in a turnover, the ball is made to roll
accordingly while at the same time pushing up on
the valve seat (see drawing).
‘When the machine is laid flat on the ground, the
‘O-ring on the valve contacts the tapered wall of
the cap, thereby closing the breather passage
completely.

A. Valve Clearance
Adjust the valve clearance as follows:
NoTE:
Valve clearance must be measured when the
engine is cool to the touch.
1. Remove intake and exhaust tappet
covers and two blind plugs on the left
crankcase cover. 3. Use a focler gauge to determine the
élearance.
Intake valve (cold):
0.05 ~0.10 mm (0.002 ~ 0.004 in}
Exhaust valve (cold):
0.12 ~ 0.17 mm (0.005 ~ 0.007 in}

range or if oil does not flow into the oil
tank, stop the engine immediately, and
check for the cause.
Specified oil pressure: 9.81 ~19.6kPa
(0.1 ~0.2kg/om?, 1,42 ~ 2.84 psi)
L. Clutch Adjustment
This model has two clutch cable length ad
justers and a clutch mechanism adjuster
Cable length adjusters are used to take up
slack from cable stretch and to provide suffi-
cient free play for proper clutch operation
under various operating conditions. The
clutch mechanism adjuster is used to provide
the correct amount of clutch "throw" for pro-
per disengagement. Normally, once the
mechanism is properly adjusted, the only ad-
justment required is maintenance of free play
at the clutch handle lever.
Free play adjustment
Loosen either the handle lever adjuster lock
ut or the cable in-line length adjuster lock
ut. Next, turn the length adjuster either in or
ut until proper lever free play is achieved.

1, Remove the upper blind plug on the left
crankcase cover.
2. Connect the timing light to the spark
plug wire.
3. Start the engine, and keep the engine
running at the specified speed. Use @
tachometer to check the engine speed.
Engine Speed: 1,200 r/min
4. The stationary pointer (in the timing
window) should be within the firing
range shown on the flywheel. If the
pointer is not within the range or if it is
not steady, check the flywheel and/or
pickup assembiy for tightness and/or
Gamage. (See “Chapter 6: Electrical”
for further information.)5. Reinstall the blind plug,
N. Compression Pressure Measurement
Insufficient compression pressure will result
in performance loss and may indicate leaking
valves or worn or damaged piston rings,
1. Make sure the valve clearance is correct.
2. Warm up the engine for 2 ~ 3 minutes;
stop the engine,
3. Remove the spark plug.
4. Install a compression gauge.
5. Tum over the engine with the kick
starter with the throttle wide open until
the pressure indicated on the gauge
does not increase further. The compres-
sion should be within the specified
levels.

210D. Cable Inspection and Lubrication
The throttle twist grip assembly should be
greased when the cable is lubricated, since the
grip must be removed to get at the end of the
throttle cable. Two screws clamp the throttle
housing to the handlebar. Once these two are
removed, the end of the cable can be held
high to pour in several drops of lubricant.
With the throttle grip disassembled, coat the
metal surface of the grip assembly with a
suitable all-purpose grease to cut down fric-
tion.
1. Damage to the outer housing of the
various cables may cause corrosion.
Often free movement will be obstructed.
An unsafe condition may result, Replace
such ¢ables 2s soon as possible.

1. The valve seat is subject to severe wear.
Whenever the valve is replaced or the
valve face is resurfaced (see caution),
the valve seat should be resurfaced at a
45° angle. If a new valve guide has been
installed, the valve seat must be recut to
guarantee complete sealing between the
valve face and seat

es)
If the valve seat is obviously pitted or
worn, it should be cleaned with a valve
seat cutter. Use the 45° cutter. When
twisting the cutter, keep an even
downward pressure to prevent chatter
marks.
If cutting section A of the valve seat, use
30° cutter. If cutting section 8, use the
45° cutter. If cutting section C, use the
60° cutter.
Measure the valve seat width. Apply
mechanic's bluing dye (such as Dykem!
to the valve face and valve seat, apply a
very small amount of fine grinding com-
pound around the surface of the valve
face, insert the valve into position, and
spin the valve quickly back and forth.
Lit the valve, clean off all grinding com-
pound, and check valve seat width, The
valve seat and valve face will have
removed the bluing wherever they con-
tacted each other. Measure the seat
width with vernier calipers. It should
measure approximately 1.3 mm (0.051

3. If the valve seat is uniform around the
perimeter of the valve face but is too
wide or not centered on the valve face, it
must be altered. Use either the 30°, 45°,
or 60° cutters to correct the improper
seat location in the manner described
below:
‘© If the valve face shows that the valve
seat is centered on the valve face but is
too wide, then lightly use both the 30°
and the 60° cutters to reduce the seat
width to 1.3mm (0,051+ If the seat shows to be in the middle of
the valve face but too narrow, use the
45° cutter until the width equals 1.3 mm
(0.051 in)
If the seat is too narrow and right up
neer the valve margin, then first use the
20° cutter and then the 45° cutter to get
the correct seat width:
If the seat is too narrow and down near
the bottom edge of the valve face, then
first use the 60° cutter and then the 45°
cutter.
Lapping
The valve/valve seat assembly should be fap-
ped if neither the seat nor the valve face are
severely worn.
1. Apply a small amount of coarse lapping
‘compound to the valve face. Insert the
valve Into the head. Rotate the vaive un-
til the valve and valve seat are evenly
polished. Clean off the coarse com:
pound, then follow the same procedure
with fine compound.
Continue lapping until the valve face
shows a complete and smooth surface
all the way around, Clean off the com-
pound material. Applying bluing dye to
the valve face and seat, and rotate the
valve. Check for full seat contact which
icated by a grey surface all around
the valve face where the bluing has been
rubbed away.

2, After all work has been performed on
the valve and valve seat end all head
parts have been assembled, check for
proper valve/vaive seat sealing by pour-
ing solvent into each of the intake ports,
then the exhaust ports. There should be
no leakage past the seat, If fluid leaks,
disassemble and continue to lap with
fine lapping compound. Clean all parts
thoroughly; reassemble and check again
with solvent, Repeat this procedure as
often as necessary to obtain a satistac-
tory seal.
Valve springs
This engine uses two springs of different
sizes to prevent valve float of surging. The
valve spring specifications show the basic
value characteristics.
1. Even though the spring is constructed of
durable spring steel, it aredually loses
some ofits tension. This is evidenced by
a gradual shortening of free length. Use
a vernier caliper to measure spring free
length. If the free length of any spring
has decreased more than 2 mm (0.080
in) from its specification, replace it.
ONAnother symptom of spring fatigue is in-
sufficient spring pressure. This can be
checked with a valve-spring-compros
sion-rate gauge. Test each spring in-
dividually. Place a spring in the gauge
and note the spring pressure when the
spring is compressed to the installed
length (valve closed). If the pressure
does not equal the specified value,
replace the spring.

postion on top of the valve guide.
3. Install the spring seat, and install both
valve springs.
37
NoT!
All valve springs must be installed with the
larger pitch upward as shown.
4, Install the collar. Be sure it is properly
seated on the valve springs.
5. Install the valve spring compressor, and
compress the springs.
6. Install the valve retainers. Be sure the re-
tainers property engage the valve stem.
7. Carefully remove the valve spring com
pressor.
unites
Proceed slowly. If a retainer has not
been properly instelled, it could be
ejected from the cylinder head.
8. Gently tap the end of the valve stem
with a plastic mallet. This will ensure
that the retainers are properly seated in
the collar.
D. Rocker Arms and Rocker Arm
Shafts
‘The rocker arm usually wears at two
locations: at the rocker shaft hole and at
the cam-lobe contact surface. Check
these areas for signs of unusual wear.
2. Measure the rocker arm inside diameter.
If it exceeds specification, replace the
rocker arm.
Maximum inside diameter
12.05 mm (0.474 in}3. Measure the outside diameter of the
rocker arm shaft. If it is less than the
specified value, replace the rocker arm.
Minimum outside diameter:
V.95 mm (0.470in)
4, Calculate the clearance by subtracting
the rocker-arm-shaft outside diameter
from the rocker-arm inside diameter. If
this clearance is greater than 0.1: mm
(0.0039 in) replace either or both parts as
necessary.
5. The rocker arm shaft has been harden-
ed; it should not wear excessively. If a
groove can be felt in the bearing surface
or if the shaft shows a blue discolora-
tion, the shaft should be replaced and
the lubrication system checked.
E, Camshafts, Cam Chains, and
Cam Sprockets
Camshaft
The cam tobe metal surface may have a blue
discoloration due to excessive friction. The
metal surface could also start to flake off or
become pitted.
1, If any of the above wear conditions are
readily visible, the camshatt should be
replaced
2. Evan though the cam lobe surface ap-
pears to be in satisfactory condition, the
lobes should be measured with a
micrometer. Cam lobe wear can occur
without scarring the surface, If this wear
exceeds the wear limit, valve timing and
lift are affected. Replace the camshaft if
wear exceeds the limit

Visually check the cylinder walls for
scratches. If verticel scratches are evi
dent, the cylinder wall should be rebored
or the cylinder should be replaced.
Measure cylinder wall wear in the man-
nner as shown. If wear is excessive, com-
pression pressure will decrease, and
engine trouble will occur. Rebore the
cylinder wall, and replace the piston and
piston rings.
Cylinder wear should be measured at
three depths by placing the measuring
instrument perallel to and at right angles
to the crankshaft. (See the illustration.)
If the cylinder wall is worn beyond the
‘wear limit, it should be rebored.

Using the micrometer, measure the out-
ide ciameter of the piston at the piston
skirt. Measurement should be made at a
point 9.5 mm (0.37 in) above the bottom
edge of the piston by placing the
micrometer parallel to and at right
angles to the piston pin.

perimeter of the bearing inner race with
a soft metal drift punch and hammer.
The spacer “floats” between the bear-
ings. Both bearings can be removed in
this manner.
To install the wheel bearing, reverse the
above sequence. Use a socket that mat-
ches the outside diameter of the race of
the bearing to drive in the bearing.
Do not strike the center race or balls of
the bearing. Contact should be made on-
ly with the outer race.
G. Front Wheel Inspection
1. Check for cracks, bends, or warpage of
the wheels. If a wheel is deformed or
cracked, it must be replaced.
Check wheel run-out. If the deflection
exceeds the tolerance below, check the
spoke-tension, rim deformation, and
wheel bearings. Replace the wheel as re-
quired.
Rim run-out limits:
Vertical: 2mm (0.079 in)
Lateral: 2mm (0.079 in)

3. Check the wheel balance. Rotate the
wheel lightly several times and note
where the wheel comes to rest. If the
wheel is not statically balanced, it will
come to rest at the same point each
time. Install an appropriate balance
‘weight at the lightest point (at top).
4. After installing a tire, ride conservatively
to allow the tire to seat itself properly on
the rim. Failure to allow proper seating
may cause tire failure resulting in
damage to the motorcycle and injury to
the rider.
After repairing or replacing a tire, check
to be sure the valve-stem locknut is
securely fastened. If not, torque it as
specified.

146 mm (5.75 in)2. Remove any glazing from the brake
shoes with coarse sandpaper.
C. Brake Drum
Gil or scratches on the inner surface of the
brake drum will impair braking performance
or result in abnormal noises. Remove oil by
wiping the brake drum with a rag soaked in
lacquer thinner or solvent. Remove scratches
by lightly and evenly polishing the brake drum
with emery cloth.
D. Brake Shoe Plate

RIMS AND SPOKES
A. Checking for Loose Spokes
Loose spokes can be checked by bracing the
machine off the ground so that the wheel can
spin freely.
Slowly rotate the wheel and at the same time
let the metal shaft of a fairly heavy screw-
river bounce off each spoke. Ifall the spokes
are tightened approximately the same, then
the sound given off by the screwdriver hitting
the spokes should sound the same. If one
spoke makes a dull flat sound, then check it
for looseness.
Check each spoke for tightness.

TIRES AND TUBES
A. Removal
1. Remove valve cap, valve core, and valve
stem locknut. Loosen bead spacer's),
(rim locks).
2. When all air is out of tube, separate tire
bead from rim (both sides) by stepping
contre with your foot.
3. Use two tire removal irons (with round-
ed edges) to work the tire bead over the
‘edge of the rim, starting 180° opposite
the tube stem. Take care to avoid pin-
ching the tube as you do this.
4. After you have worked one side of the
tire completely off the rim, then you can
slip the tube out. Be very careful not to
damage the stem while pushing it back
out of the rim hole,
Nott
If you are changing the tire itself, then finish
‘the removal by working the second bead off
therim.
B. Installation
Reinstalling the tire and tube can be ac-
‘complished by reversing the disassembly pro-
cecdure. The only difference in procedure
would be right after the tube has been in-
stalled. Before the tire has been completely
slipped onto the rim, momentarily infiate the
tube. This removes any creases that might
exist. Release the ait and continue with
reassembly. Also, right after the tire has been
completely slipped onto the rim, check to
make sure that the stem comes out of the
hole in the rim at a right angle to the rim.
Finally, inflate the tire.

A. Cable Maintenance
NOTE:
See “Maintenance and Lubrication” intervai
charts. Cable maintenance is primarily con-
cerned with preventing deterioration and pro-
viding proper lubrication to allow the cable to
move freely within its housing. Cable removal
is straightforward and uncomplicated.
Removal is not discussed within this section.
Cnn
Cable routing is very important. For
details of cable routing, see the cable
routing diagrams at the end of this
manual. Improperly routed or adjusted
cables may make the motorcycle unsafe
for operation.
1. Remove the cable.
2. Check for free movement of the cable
within its housing. If movement is
obstructed, check for frayed strands or
kinking of the cable. If damage is evi-
dent, replace the cable.
3. To lubricate the cable, hold it in a ver-
tical position. Apply lubricant to the up-
permost end of the cable. Leave it in the
vertical position until the lubricant ap-
pears at the bottom. Allow any excess
to drain, and reinstall the cable.
No’ a
Choice of a lubricant depends upon condi-
tions and preferences. However, a Yamaha
chain and cable lubricant or its equivalent will
perform adequately under most conditions.
B. Throttle Maintenance
1. Remove the Phillips head screws from
the throttle housing assembly and
‘separate the two halves of the housing.
2. Disconnect the cable end from the throt-
tle grip assembly, and remove the grip
assembly.
3. Wash all parts in @ mild solvent, and
check all contact surfaces for burrs or
other damage. (Also clean and inspect
the right-hand end of the handlebar.)
4, Lubricate all contact surfaces with a
light coat of lithium-base grease and
reassemble.
NOTE:
Tighten the housing screws evenly to main-
tain an even gap between the two halves.
5. Check for smooth throttle operation and
quick spring return. Make certain that
the housing does not rotate on the
handlebar.

‘Operation
If an excess current should flow through the
above-shown circuit, the bimetal will heat up
and deform. When its deformation exceeds a
certain amount, the bimetal forces the knob
out. The bimetal is kept warped by the
semielliptic spring.
In this manner, the circuit is left open. The
circuit can be closed by simply pushing the
knob down. By repeating this operation, the
same circuit breaker can be used repeatedly.
Wait 30 seconds before resetting the cir-
cuit breaker.

If the ignition system becomes inoperative or
if the engine misfires at the minimum spark
gap or at a smaller gap, there is @ problem in
‘the ignition system. Follow the trouble-
‘shooting chart until the source of the problem
islocated.

Spark plug
The life of @ spark plug and its discoloring
vary according to the habits of the rider. At
each periodic inspection, replace burned or
fouled plugs with new ones of the specified
type. It is actually economica! to install new
plugs often since it will tend to keep the
engine in good condition and prevent ex-
cessive fuel consumption.
1. Inspect and clean the spark plug every
4,000 km (2,500 mi), and replace after
initiat 13,000 km (8,000 mi)2. Clean the electrodes of carbon, and ad-
just the electrode gap to the specifica
tion. Be sureto use a spark plug with the
correct reach, electrode gap, and heat
range to avoid overheating, fouling, or
piston damage.
Type: D7EA(NGK)
Electrode gap:
0.6 ~ 0.7 mm (0.024 ~ 0.028 in)
Tightening torque:
20 Nm (2.0m-kg, 14 ft-Ib)
Sidestand switch
1, Remove the seat and disconnect the
connector.
2. Connect the pocket tester leads as
shown, and set the tester selector to
‘ohms % 1. When the sidestand is up, the
tester should read zero ohms. When the
sidestand is down, the tester should
read infinity.

613A. Easy-maintenance Lighting System
The headlight, meters, horn, and front flasher
lights can be removed easily for off-road use.
This detachable system has the added
advantage of easy parts replacement and
repair.
Be sure to put the removed items back
on the motorcycle correctly.
Removal
1. Remove the connector cover and
disconnect the wiring connector. Put
the main harness connector back in its
place.
2. Remove the three headlight bracket
securing bolts.
NOTE:
When loosening the bolts, take care not to
lose the underside clamp nuts.
3. Remove the cables from the speedo-
and tachometer. Install the rubber caps.
4, Remove the headlight with the speedo-
meter and tachometer mounted to it
e145. Put the clamp nuts and bolts back in
place while holding the meter cables and
throttle and clutch wires inside.
Installation
Reverse the removal procedure, Make sure
the removed parts are put back correctly.
B. Lighting Tests and Checks
The battery provides power for operation of
the headiight, taillight, and meter lights. If
none of the above operates, always check
battery voltage before proceeding further.
Low battery voltage indicates either a faulty
battery, low battery electrolyte, or a detective
charging system. See page 6-5’"CHARGING
SYSTEM” for checks of the battery and
charging system.

always check the battery voltage before pro-
ceeding further. Low battery voltage in-
dicates either a faulty battery, low battery
electrolyte, or a defective charging system,
See page 6-5 “CHARGING SYSTEM" for
checks of the battery and charging system.
Also check the non-fuse breaker. If the circuit
is open, push the knob down.

If the battery shows the following defects, it
should be replaced:
1. The battery voltage will not rise to a
specific value nor will bubbles rise in any
cell even after many hours of charging.
Sulfation of one or more cells is in-
dicated by the plates turing white or an
accumulation of material in the bottom
‘of the cell
Specific gravity readings after a long,
slow charge indicate a cell to be lower
than any others.
Warpage or buckling of plates or in-
sulators is evident.

GENERAL TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS
This chart specifies torque for standard
fasteners with standard |.S.0. pitch threads.
Torque specifications for special components
‘or assemblies are included in the applicable
sections of this book, To avoid warpage,
tighten multi-fastener assemblies in a
crisscross fashion, in progressive stages, until
full torque is reached. Unless otherwise
specified, torque specifications call for clean,
dry threads. Components should be at room
temperature.
