OPERATION
Fueling Precautions
Fuel the motorcycle with the sidestand down and on level ground. Use only the
recommended fuel (see Fuel Specifications on page 247). Fill the fuel tank to a level just
below the bottom of the fuel filler neck. Fuel door operation is on page 77.
WARNING
• Do not allow gasoline to come into contact with a hot engine or exhaust system. This
could cause a fire. Immediately wipe, or rinse with water, gasoline spilled on any part of
the motorcycle or the surrounding area.
• Do not fill the fuel tank above the fuel filler insert. Overfilling the fuel tank may cause fuel
to overflow when it expands.
• Fuel may leak from an improperly seated fuel cap. Be sure the fuel cap properly seated
before starting the engine.
CAUTION
Fuel can damage painted surfaces and plastic parts. Wipe spilled fuel immediately from the
motorcycle using a clean, dry, soft cloth.
