Warning
GASOLINE IS HIGHLY FLAMMABLE:
Always turn off the engine when refuelling.
Do not refuel or open the fuel filler cap
while smoking or in the vicinity of any
open (naked) flame.
Take care not to spill any gasoline on the
engine, exhaust pipes or mufflers when
refuelling.
If gasoline is swallowed, inhaled or allowed
to get into the eyes, seek immediate
medical attention.
Spillage on the skin should be immediately
washed off with soap and water and
clothing contaminated with gasoline
should immediately be removed.
Burns and other serious skin conditions
may result from contact with gasoline.
Warning
Never start your engine or let it run for any
length of time in a closed area. The
exhaust fumes are poisonous and may
cause loss of consciousness and death
within a short time. Always operate your
motorcycle in the open-air or in an area
with adequate ventilation.
