Fuel Requirements - Triumph DAYTONA 675 Service Manual

Fuel Requirements

Fuel Requirements - all countries except USA
Outside of America, Daytona 675 must be run on
95 RON (or higher) unleaded fuel, and Street Triple and
Street Triple R must be run on 91 RON (or higher)
unleaded fuel.
Fuel Requirements - USA
In the United States of America where the octane rating of
fuel is measured in a different way, the following
information may be applied:
Daytona 675 is designed to run on unleaded gasoline
with a CLC or AKI octane rating (R+M)/2 of 89 or higher.
Street Triple and Street Triple R are designed to run on
unleaded gasoline with a CLC or AKI octane rating
(R+M)/2 of 87 or higher.
Note:
• If 'knocking' or 'pinking' occurs at a steady
engine speed under normal load, use a
different brand of gasoline or a higher
octane rating.
Caution
The use of leaded gasoline is illegal in some countries,
states or territories and will invalidate the vehicle and
emissions control warranties. Additionally, leaded
gasoline will cause damage to emissions control
components.
Oxygenated Gasoline
To help in meeting clean air standards, some areas of the
U.S. use oxygenated gasoline to help reduce harmful
emissions. This model will give best performance when
using unleaded gasoline. However, the following should
be used as a guide to the use of oxygenated fuels.
Caution
Because of the generally higher volatility of oxygenated
fuels, starting, engine response and fuel consumption
may be adversely affected by their use. Should any of
these difficulties be experienced, run the motorcycle on
normal unleaded gasoline.
Ethanol
Ethanol fuel is a mixture of 10% ethanol and 90%
gasoline and is often described under the names
'gasohol', 'ethanol enhanced', or 'contains ethanol'. This
fuel may be used in Triumph motorcycles.
