General Information
Fuel
Fuel Grade
This Triumph motorcycle is designed to run
on unleaded gasoline with a CLC or AKI
octane rating (R+M)/2 of 87 or higher.
Federal regulations require that pumps
delivering unleaded gasoline are marked
'UNLEADED' and that the Cost of Living
Council (CLC) or Anti-Knock Index (AKI)
octane rating is also displayed. These ratings
are an average of the Research Octane
Number (RON) and the Motor Octane
Number (MON).
Warning
Do not attempt to adjust the levers with the
motorcycle in motion as this may lead to
loss of control and an accident.
After adjusting the levers, operate the
motorcycle in an area free from traffic to
gain familiarity with the new lever settings.
Do not loan your motorcycle to anyone as
they may change the lever settings from
the one you are familiar with possibly
causing loss of control or an accident.
Caution
The exhaust system is fitted with a catalytic
conveter to help reduce exhaust emission
levels. The catalytic converter can be
permanently damaged if the motorcycle is
allowed to run out of fuel or if the fuel level
is allowed to get very low. Always ensure
you have adequate fuel for your journey.
Caution
The use of leaded gasoline is illegal in
some countries, states or territories. Use of
leaded fuel will damage the catalytic
converter.
