2002 Yamaha XT225 Service and Repair Manual

On a 2002 XT225 the model code is XT225P. Service information comes from LIT-11616-XT-26, one book spanning 2001 to 2007.

Because the machine carried on largely unchanged, the same volume served the whole run, with codes noted against any figure that is year-specific. Checking XT225P in the tables is a habit worth keeping even on a model this consistent.

Using the book on the bench

Start with the maintenance chapter for intervals, valve clearance and adjustment figures. When something has to come apart, the overhaul chapters give the factory disassembly order, the measurement at each stage, the wear limit and the torque to reassemble to. Suspension and brake work is covered the same way, with pad and shoe limits stated. Carburetor and ignition setting are procedures with values, and electrical faults are traced with test readings and the harness diagram.
