GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS 1-3
FUEL AND OIL RECOMMENDATION
This motorcycle is of the two-stroke design, which requires a
premixture of gasoline and oil.
Gasoline: Use only unleaded gasoline of at least 90 pump
octane (R/2 + M/2 method). ..... For Canada
Use only unleaded gasoline of at least 95 octane.
(Research method) .................. For other countries.
Engine oil: MOTUL 800 2T
or equivalent Two Cycle Racing Lubricant
Mixing ratio: 30 : 1
Fuel tank capacity: 5.0 L (1.3/1.1 US/lmp gal)
NOTE:
* Mix gasoline and the engine oil thoroughly when the tempera-
ture is below 0 °C (32 °F). Vegetable-based oils can separate
easier than mineral oils.
* Use premixture oil as soon as possible after mixing, or lubrica-
tion performance of the engine oil can decrease.
* Do not mix vegetable-based oil and mineral oil.
* Insert the end of the breather hose into the steering stem head
after refueling.
CAUTION
A mixture containing too little oil will cause piston sei-
zure. Too much oil will cause excessive carbon forma-
tion resulting in preignition, fouled spark plug and
loss of engine power.
Mix fuel and the engine oil at the ratio of 30:1.
