Right handlebar switchgear includes the engine kill switch and the starter switch. The kill switch is used

turned on.
Fuel, Fuel Tank, Filler Cap, and Petcock
The SG250 fuel tank holds 4.0 gallons of fuel. Use 87 octane or higher fuel.
The fuel petcock is located on left side of the tank. Turn the petcock to the OFF position when you are
not riding the motorcycle. Turn the petcock to the RUN position prior to operating the motorcycle. If
the motorcycle runs out of fuel, turn the petcock to the RESERVE position. Find a fuel station and fill
the motorcycle as soon as possible after the fuel petcock switching to the RESERVE position.
The fuel tank filler cap is a locking cap. To open it, insert the ignition key in the fuel tank and turn it
clockwise. After filling the fuel tank, push down firmly on the filler cap to lock it.
