Fuel Recommendation
For best performance, use only unleaded gasoline with a 91
pump octane minimum (R+M/2 Method). DO NOT USE E-85
GASOLINE OR GASOLINE CONTAINING METHANOL. Using
E85 or gasoline/methanol blends can result in poor starting
and driveability, engine damage and damage to critical fuel
system components.
• Gasoline containing up to 15% Ethanol can be used.
• Gasoline containing up to 15% Methyl Tertiary Butyl Ether (MTBE)
can be used.
In the event that the recommended premium unleaded
gasoline is not available and low octane fuel must be used,
fill the fuel tank only partially with unleaded regular
gasoline, then fill the tank fully with premium unleaded
gasoline as soon as possible.
Engine Oil Recommendation
We recommend the use of INDIAN MOTORCYCLE Premium
Synthetic Blend 20W-40 Engine Oil for your motorcycle. This
oil is formulated with synthetic-based oil and premium
engine additive which have physical properties that meet
API SM and ILSAC GF-4 specifications.
Do not blend oil additives with engine oil.
If oil must be added in an emergency and the recommended
oil is not available, choose only a high-quality 20W-40
motorcycle oil. Change back to the recommended oil at the
first opportunity.
NOTICE: Use of non-recommended lubricants can result in engine
damage. Damage resulting from the use of non-
recommended lubricants is not covered by warranty.
Fork Oil
We recommend the use of INDIAN MOTORCYCLE Fork Oil
for your motorcycle.
Brake Fluid

Brake Fluid for both brake master cylinders. DO NOT use
