Recommended fuel:
PREMIUM UNLEADED
GASOLINE ONLY
Fuel tank capacity:
23.0 L (6.07 US gal) (5.05 Imp.gal)
Fuel reserve amount (when the fuel
level warning light comes on):
6.7 L (1.77 US gal) (1.47 Imp.gal)
NOTICE
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.
Your Yamaha engine has been de-
signed to use premium unleaded
gasoline with a research octane num-
ber of 95 or higher. If knocking (or
pinging) occurs, use a gasoline of a
different brand. Use of unleaded fuel
will extend spark plug life and reduce
maintenance costs.
