CONTROLS

Choke

The choke assists in starting a cold engine. Refer to the engine starting

procedure on page 53 for correct choke and throttle settings during

starting.

Fuel Valve

The fuel valve (1) is located on the left side

panel. It has three positions:
OFF: For vehicle storage and when transporting.
ON: For normal operation.
RES: For reserve supply if main supply is

exhausted.
NOTE: There’s about a 7 to 10 mile

(11.2 to 16 km) range on reserve gas.

Always refill the gas tank as soon as

possible after using the main supply.
Always return the valve to the on position

after refueling.

Fuel Tank

The fuel tank filler cap (2) is located directly

below the handlebar. Use either leaded or

unleaded gasoline with a minimum pump octane number of 87=(R+

M/2) octane.

Fuel Filter

The in-line fuel filter should be replaced by your dealer after every 100

hours of operation, or annually. Do not attempt to clean the fuel filter.
