2005 Yamaha RAPTOR 50 Service and Repair Manual

For 2005 the RAPTOR 50 code reads YFM50RT, and the manual remains Yamaha LIT-11616-17-13, written to cover 2004 through 2006.

Everything in it is organised around doing the work rather than reading about it: remove, inspect against a stated limit, reassemble at a stated torque. That applies to the engine, the automatic clutch, the drive train, the brakes and the suspension alike.

The maintenance chapter is the one most owners live in, with intervals, fluid specifications and the adjustment figures for throttle, brakes and chain. When something is actually broken, the symptom-based troubleshooting narrows it down before you start taking parts off.

Exploded views accompany the repair sections, which helps when a part has to be identified without a parts catalogue to hand. A full wiring diagram closes the book. Match YFM50RT to your machine first.
