1.3.11 TORQUE FIGURES
Do not forget that the tightening torques of all fastenings on wheels, brakes, wheel spindles and other suspension
components are essential to ensuring safe operation of the motorcycle and must be set to the indicated values.
Regularly check the tightening torques on all fastenings, and always use a torque wrench when fitting them.
Failure to observe these instructions can result in parts loosening or coming away, thus jamming a wheel or creating
other problems which could affect the handling of the motorcycle, potentially resulting in serious injury or death.

WARNINGS REGARDING FUEL, LUBRICANTS AND OTHER COMPONENTS
1.4.1
FUEL
The fuel used to operate engines is highly flammable and becomes explosive under particular conditions.
Refuelling and engine service should take place in a well-ventilated area with the engine stopped.
Do not smoke when refuelling or in the proximity of sources of fuel vapours. 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, or 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
from heat and when left under direct sunlight. Never fill the fuel tank up to the rim. Tighten the filler cap securely after
each refuelling.
Avoid contact with skin. Do not inhale vapours. Do not swallow fuel. Do not transfer fuel between different containers
using a hose.
In case of contact with the eyes, rinse abundantly with clean water and immediately seek medical attention.
If accidentally swallowed, do not induce vomiting.
Drink abundant milk or cool water and seek medical attention immediately.
DO NOT RELEASE FUEL INTO THE ENVIRONMENT.
KEEP AWAY FROM CHILDREN.
Use only premium-grade unleaded fuel with a minimum octane rating of 95 (N.O.R.M.) and 85 (N.O.M.M.).
