As usual, before starting any maintenance operation on any motorcycle, ensure the bike is in a stable and safe position to work on, safeguarding the operator's safety. In this case, place your Yamaha on the stand.

Next, remove the seat and locate the speed connector. Connect the two plugs (male and female) to the gear indicator.

Now, after selecting the background colour of the display, proceed to calibrate the gears by inputting the required gear with constant throttle. It finishes when the next gear number appears.

Without turning off the ignition, check if the test was successful. If not, you can restart the test.
