1.3. DANGEROUS ELEMENTS
1.3.1. WARNINGS
FUEL
DANGER
The fuel used to operate engines is highly flammable and becomes explosive under particular
conditions.
Refueling and maintenance operations should be carried out in a well-ventilated area, with the engine
off.
Do not smoke when refueling or in the proximity of sources of fuel vapors. Avoid contact with bare
flames, sources of sparks or any other source which may ignite the fuel or lead to explosion.
Take care not to spill fuel out of the filler, as it may ignite when in contact with hot engine parts.
In the event of accidental fuel spillage, make sure the affected area is fully dry before starting the
engine. Fuel expands with heat and when left under direct sunlight.
Never fill the fuel tank up to the rim. Tighten the filler cap securely after each refueling.
Avoid contact with the skin and the inhalation of vapors; do not swallow fuel or pour it from a
receptacle into another by means of a tube.
DO NOT DISPOSE OF FUEL IN THE ENVIRONMENT.
KEEP AWAY FROM CHILDREN.
Use only premium grade unleaded gasoline with a minimum octane rating of 95 RON and 85 MON.
LUBRICANTS
DANGER
Correct lubrication is essential to the safety of the motorcycle.
Failure to maintain the lubricant level or the use of incorrect, old or dirty lubricant can cause the
engine or transmission to seize, resulting in accident, serious injury or death.
Prolonged or repeated contact with gear fluid may cause severe skin damage.
Wash your hands thoroughly after handling.
Do not dispose of oil in the environment.
For disposal, contact the nearest waste oil reclamation firm or the supplier.
WARNING
Avoid spillage when filling the vehicle with oil. Immediately clean up any spilt oil, which can damage
painted parts.
Oil on the tires can make them very slippery and dangerous to use.
In case of oil leaks, do not use the motorcycle. Identify the cause of the leak and repair it.
ENGINE OIL
DANGER
Prolonged or repeated contact with engine oil may cause severe skin damage.
Wash your hands thoroughly after handling.
Do not dispose of oil in the environment.
For disposal, contact the nearest waste oil reclamation firm or the supplier.
Wear latex gloves when servicing.
FRONT FORK FLUID
DANGER
Front suspension response can be modified to a certain extent by changing damping settings and/or
selecting a particular grade of oil. Standard oil: SAE 20 W. Choose suitable viscosity grades according
to the desired setup (choose SAE 5W for a softer suspension, 20W for a stiffer suspension).
The two grades can also be mixed in varying solutions to obtain the desired response.
