Hi Dragomir,

that´s no easy feat.. :( .. and can only be done by an authorized Yamaha dealership..To my knowledge they can change it by reprogramming the instrument and no, you don´t have to buy new electronics.. :-D

Hello Dragomir,

at our 6th. Intl. meeting we tried to set the clock correctly and by accident we changed from kilometers to miles. This was of course at a model build in 2006.

It was quite easy: press both, the select and reset button, and than turn the key to on.
This will change either from km to miles or vice versa.
Unfortunatel, how this works at a bike from the first series, I don't know.

Best regards

Ralf

Hi Dragomir,

Ralfs info only works on a 2005 and up model...on a pre-2005 model this procedure will only cancel the "oil change" info..sorry :(

Hi Dragomir,

no, this will not work..or only if you change all the electrics/electronics (Instruments, CDI-Unit, the complete wiring-harness etc..) that´s a lot of work and very expensive parts..
