This message can happen if the battery is low or the backup RAM has 
been damaged. The manual recommends contacting your local Yamaha 
dealer.

If it is the battery, it is easily replaced. If you look at the 
photos in the gallery here, you will see that it is a simple button 
style battery. Just remove two screws on each side of the module, one 
one on the back, remove the cover and the battery is easily 
accessible. The battery is available at Radio shack or most stores 
that carry button style batteries.

If it is a true memory issue and it is out of warranty, they is not 
much inside the module that can be just "swapped" out, again you can 
see this in the photos.

Was just wondering if anyone had done this, if it costs more than the 
module, than I will just get a new mod. It doesn't specify that info 
in the manual, thats why I checked here first.

If it were me I would have the lid off in a shot and a CR2450 in my
hand.  I cannot see why it cannot be changed by the user, other than
Yamaha don't want you to take the lid off.  However, do so at your own
risk - I haven't done it yet because mine is only 6 weeks old!

I have a KX 250, what do I do, put it under the rear tire and pop the 
clutch?

I guess if they would send it I could put it in. I don't even wanna 
think about how much it will cost.

I don't know, I have a K1200RS (hence the member name).  I also had a
KR1S before that.  I will have to stop buying bikes with my initials
in the model number.

If you don't know what a CR2450 is, it is probably best to leave the
lid on and send it back to Yamaha:)
