The Yamaha Water Inlet Cover (6KA-45214-00-00) acts as a crucial defense, shielding the intake system from debris that could clog cooling passages or reduce performance. Without proper protection, sand, weeds, and other contaminants can restrict water flow, leading to overheating and long-term engine wear. Swapping out a worn or missing cover with this genuine Yamaha OEM part helps maintain optimal cooling, preventing unnecessary strain on your motor.
