Later RS Ventures return to the wide-coverage book. LIT-12618-02-38 applies to the 2015 sled, coded RST90FS, and the same volume also serves model years 2005, 2006, 2012 and 2016 along with the Rage, VECTOR and VENTURE.
Yamaha kept a long-running platform in one document instead of reissuing a near-identical book each season. For an owner that means broad usefulness, and it also means paying attention to the model-code callouts so you read the specification meant for a 2015 machine.
The material is dealer-level throughout: maintenance schedules, engine overhaul procedures with clearance and torque data, fuel and electrical testing with expected values, clutch and driveline specifications, suspension and track adjustment, brake service, wiring diagrams and symptom-based troubleshooting. Take the model code off your own sled first, since it is the key to reading the right column in the specification tables.
