Operation
Fueling
Always dismount the motorcycle and refuel on level ground
with the sidestand down. Review the fuel warnings. See
page 14. Use only the recommended fuel. See page 102.
WARNING! Overflows or spilled gasoline could contact a hot
engine or exhaust system and cause a fire, which could result in
serious injury or death. Do not allow gasoline to contact hot
components.
WARNING! Always open the fuel cap slowly and fill the fuel tank
slowly to prevent spillage. Do not overfill the fuel tank. Leave space in
the tank to allow for the fuel to expand.
1. To open the fuel tank cap, insert the ignition key into the
cap lock and turn it clockwise. Hold the key in this
position while lifting the cap.
2. Insert the fuel nozzle into the fuel tank filler neck.
3. Hold the nozzle while filling. Do not rest the weight of the
nozzle and hose on the filler neck. Do not leave the
nozzle unattended.
4. Add fuel to the tank until it touches the bottom edge of
the filler neck. The tank is full at this level.
5. Always close and lock the fuel cap before remounting
the motorcycle. With the key rotated clockwise, close
the fuel cap with your opposite hand and press it down
firmly. Turn the key counter-clockwise to secure the
lock.
6. If the motorcycle runs out of fuel, prime the system
before attempting to restart the engine. See page 46.
