Fuel
In the condition at delivery, the LC8 engine requires unleaded fuel with at
least RON 95 (USA = Premium PON 91).
If using lower octane fuel, it is easy to change over to the pre-programmed
ignition curve for 80 - 94 octane (RON) (see activating the ignition curve for
low-octane fuel).
After refueling, it will take approx. 8 minutes for the fuel warning lamp to
switch off and for TRIP F to automatically reset to 0 and return to the previ-
MAX
ous display mode.
NOTE:
Press the SET key for 2 seconds to immediately turn off the fuel warning lamp.
– USE UNLEADED FUEL WITH AT LEAST RON 95 (USA = PREMIUM RON 91). IF
USING LOWER OCTANE FUEL, THE IGNITION CURVE MUST BE CHANGED, OTH-
ERWISE ENGINE DAMAGE WILL OCCUR.
– THIS MOTORCYCLE IS EQUIPPED WITH 2 CATALYTIC CONVERTERS. LEADED
FUEL WILL DESTROY THE CATALYTIC CONVERTERS. PLEASE USE UNLEADED
FUEL ONLY.
The 950 Adventure has 2 tanks with 1 filler cap each. Both filler caps can
be locked and are equipped with a tank vent system. To open, insert the igni-
tion key, turn 45° in a clockwise direction and fold up the filler cap. The igni-
tion key can be pulled out to open the other filler cap. Simply press on the
filler cap to close.
Fill the right tank first, then the left tank (see drawing for the maximum fill-
ing level). If the right tank is filled up to the filler neck, fuel may overflow
when the motorcycle is parked on the side stand after refueling when the fuel
becomes warm.
MAX
