Yes but you are quoting a yamaha SHOP manual . it assumes a working level competence within the shop bay at the DEALER garage. All staff undergo general yamaha centric DEALER/franchise training and this sort of document is merely a guide for THE SPECIFIC BIKE MODEL. I mean this shop manual doesnt say a lot of things in a lot of areas; you are better off with a Haynes if you are new to Yamahas or indeed perhaps new to bike DIY in general. Otherwise this shop manual is okay but not a prescriptive line by line 101% step by step noddy guide so watch out :rolleyes
Of course my friend, the litmus test is to repeat your test again once the bike is all good to go and come back and tell us what happened after a few 000s miles !!! It is entirely your decision as to whether you take the advice on offer above from foccers - or not :z
