FUEL SUPPLY VALVE
Operation
See Figure 4-5. The fuel supply valve is located under the fuel
tank on the left side of the vehicle. The gasoline supply to the
carburetor is dependent upon the position of the valve han-
dle.
Turning the 3-position valve handle to the fully vertical posi-
tion shuts the gasoline supply to the carburetor “OFF”. Mov-
ing the valve handle counter-clockwise to the horizontal
position turns the main fuel supply “ON”. Turning the handle
clockwise to the horizontal position accesses the
“RES(ERVE)” supply.
11WARNING1WARNING
To prevent accidental flooding of the engine or surround-
ing area with gasoline, always turn the fuel supply valve
to OFF when the engine is not running. Gasoline is
extremely flammable and highly explosive, which could
result in death or serious injury. (00098a)
NOTE
To maintain a reserve supply, do not operate the motorcycle
with the valve in the “RES(ERVE)” position after refueling.
