TIP
This mark identifies the recom-
mended fuel for this vehicle as
specified by European regulation
(EN228).
Confirm the gasoline pump nozzle
has the same fuel identification
mark.
Gasohol
There are two types of gasohol: gaso-
hol containing ethanol and that con-
taining methanol. Gasohol containing
ethanol can be used if the ethanol con-
tent does not exceed 10% (E10). Gas-
ohol containing methanol is not
recommended by Yamaha because it
can cause damage to the fuel system
or vehicle performance problems.
NOTICE
ECA11401
Use only unleaded gasoline. The use
of leaded gasoline will cause severe
damage to internal engine parts,
such as the valves and piston rings,
as well as to the exhaust system.

for cracks or damage, and replace
it if necessary.
Make sure that the fuel tank over-
flow hose is not blocked, and
clean it if necessary.
Make sure that the fuel tank over-
flow hose is positioned as shown.
