Fuel Requirements
Your Bimota engine is designed
to use only unleaded gasoline with
a minimum octane rating shown
below. Never use gasoline with an
octane rating lower than the minimum
specied by Bimota to prevent severe
engine damage.
The octane rating of a gasoline is
a measure of its resistance to detonation
or “knocking.” The term commonly
used to describe a gasoline’s octane
rating is the Research Octane Number
(RON).
NOTICE
Do not use leaded gasoline, as this
will destroy the catalytic converter.
