Follow these guidelines to protect your
motorcycle’s catalytic converter.
î Always use unleaded petrol. Even a small
amount of leaded petrol can contaminate
the catalyst metals, making the catalytic
converter ineffective.
î Keep the engine tuned up.
Further to meet emission standards this
motorcycle is provided with the air suction
valve.
Air suction valve (1) supplies fresh air from
the air filter to the exhaust manifold to convert
carbon monoxide to carbon dioxide. This
reduces the CO % in the vehicles’s exhaust.
EVAPORATIVE EMISSION CONTROL
This motorcycle is equipped with an
evaporative emission control system to meet
emission standards. During warm weather, the
petrol vapours which contain HC evaporates
easily into the atmosphere from the fuel tank,
if the fuel system is unsealed or open. The
evaporative emission control system is used to
prevent petrol vapours from escaping into the
atmosphere from fuel tank. This device
collects the fuel vapour from the fuel tank and
then the fuel vapour is drawn into the engine
for re-burning to avoid pollution caused by
the fuel vapour diffused into the air.
