Yamaha Raider 2012–2013 Service & Owner's Manual Set (P/N LIT-11616-25-48)

The owner's guide supplies operating instructions and scheduled-maintenance information; the service publication adds disassembly, inspection, and fault-diagnosis procedures.

Owner's-guide coverage: Owner-level instructions apply only to XV19CSB(C) and XV19CB(C). The S/CTS configurations are covered by the service publication.

Searchable PDFs and Wiring Detail

Search, bookmarks, and labels: Both PDFs have searchable text and embedded bookmarks. The appended clutch pages have an OCR text layer with occasional recognition errors. Small wiring-diagram labels require zooming.

The ZIP download contains two printable English PDFs totaling 619 pages, including the service file's 23 appended clutch pages and six blank pages, plus three nontechnical additional pages in the owner's file.

Engine, Drivetrain, and Electrical Work

The following selected coverage highlights are not a complete contents list. Other topics include EXUP cable adjustment and headlight aiming.

• Engine repair: Step-by-step procedures for engine removal and installation, cylinder-head and valve work, crankcase separation, and crankshaft/connecting-rod inspection.

• Clutch and drivetrain: Hydraulic clutch overhaul and bleeding, transfer gear case and oil-pump service, transmission inspection, and drive-belt/pulley removal and installation.

• Chassis service: Wheel disassembly and static balancing, brake master-cylinder/caliper overhaul, front-fork rebuild, steering-head service, and rear-suspension inspection.

• Fuel-system checks: Fuel-pump, injector, pressure-regulator, throttle-position-sensor, and ISC checks, with throttle-body synchronization and adjustment procedures.

• Electrical diagnosis: ECU self-diagnosis, diagnostic mode, fault-code tables, sensor/actuator tests, and fault isolation for ignition, starting, charging, lighting, and signaling.

• Diagrams and routing: Clutch and transfer-gear exploded job diagrams, FI system layout, engine-oil lubrication charts, variant-specific cable-routing views, subsystem circuits, and separate 2012 S/CTS and CS/C wiring diagrams.

Yamaha wrote the service manual primarily for its dealers and qualified mechanics; it assumes a basic understanding of motorcycle mechanics and repair techniques.

Model and Variant Detail

Separate instrument descriptions, cable-routing plates, exhaust and headlight procedures, fork-installation notes, brake specifications, and secondary-drive data distinguish S/CTS from CS/C configurations.

California-only canister and rollover-valve coverage is identified where applicable. XV19CTS(C) sections cover the windshield, backrest, sidebags, and their brackets.

Engine and Drivetrain Repair

Engine chapters cover gear-driven camshafts, the decompression system, rocker assemblies, push rods, and hydraulic lifters, including lifter bleeding. Cylinder-head work extends to valve seats and guides; piston, cylinder, and crankshaft sections provide inspection limits and bearing-selection information.

Dry-sump lubrication coverage includes oil-pump and strainer inspection, lubricant points, and oil-passage diagrams. Assembly marks and component-specific torque sequences accompany internal repair work. Transmission sections address main/drive-shaft assembly, shift drums, and shift forks.

Reference tables cover fluid capacities, valve and spark-plug clearances, belt and brake wear limits, tire and suspension data, fuse ratings, and electrical test values.

Clutch Designs and Repair Precautions

The main clutch chapter shows a spring-plate design. The appended clutch section covers a coil-spring arrangement, with assembly-width checks and selective clutch-plate data. Match the section to the installed clutch components before using its specifications.

Yamaha cautions that reversing, twisting, or sharply bending the drive belt can damage it. The hydraulic brake and clutch chapters explain how incorrect fluid can deteriorate rubber seals and how mixed fluids can impair operation.

Hose-routing and post-bleeding checks accompany hydraulic service. Rear-shock coverage addresses removal, inspection, and replacement; Yamaha warns against opening the nitrogen-charged shock body.

Fuel Injection and Electrical Diagnostics

Fuel-system layouts distinguish the tank, sub-fuel tank, rollover valves, and pressure regulator. Throttle-body coverage includes removal, checks, synchronization, and TPS adjustment; Yamaha specifically states that the throttle bodies should not be disassembled.

Fault tables link warning-light codes with probable causes, diagnostic-mode checks, and ECU reinstatement actions, giving technicians a route from a displayed fault to the relevant circuit and component tests.

Sensor coverage includes crankshaft, intake-air, throttle, oxygen, engine-temperature, lean-angle, and speed sensors. Diagnostic tables also address coils, injectors, the EXUP servo, ISC, ECU power, and communication errors. Connector handling, switch continuity, relay/diode checks, charging tests, and starter-motor overhaul support fault isolation.

Workshop equipment: Factory tool references include the rear drive-belt tension gauge (YM-03170 / 90890-03170) and Vacuummate/vacuum gauge (YU-44456 / 90890-03094). Fuel-pressure checks reference adapter YM-03176 / 90890-03176; clutch work uses universal holder YM-91042 / 90890-04086.

Owner's Guide Scope

The owner's guide explains controls and instruments, pre-operation checks, starting, shifting, break-in, and parking. Maintenance sections cover engine and transfer-case oil, belt slack, tires, brake/clutch fluid, battery, fuses, and lighting. Care, storage, maintenance records, and U.S. warranty information are also included.

Examples of Clutch Inspection Limits

The main spring-plate clutch chapter specifies a spring height of 6.78 mm and a minimum height of 6.28 mm. These values apply to the spring plate.

The appended coil-spring section specifies a clutch spring free length of 48.48 mm, with a service limit of 46.06 mm. Its inspection tables distinguish plate types and replacement thicknesses.
