17) Fuel and Oil
The scooter is designed to run on 91 unleaded
fuel. Using 95 or 98 octane fuel can cause the
engine to run too hot and prematurely foul the
plugs.
The fuel tank holds 4.5 litres. You can expect to
get around 200km off one tank which equates to
approximately 185MPG.
Please note: The scooter does
not have a reserve tank so pay
close attention to the fuel
gauge. When the fuel needle
hits the red you should have
approx 1.2 litres of fuel left.
The scooters take standard 10W40 4-Stroke
engine oil. They take 80W90 transmission oil.
It is important to regularly check the oil level as
the consequence of a lack of oil in your engine
can be very costly.
The oil should be changed at the scheduled
service intervals which are 300km (run-in
service), 1000km, 2000km, 3000km, 4000km,
5000km and every 1000km thereafter.
The sparkplug in the scooter is NGK-C7HSA.
Make a habit of checking the engine
oil level with the dipstick once a week
