RIDING INSTRUCTIONS
Fuel consumption is also affected by condi-
tions that are out of your control, for instan-
ce, poor road condition, hills,riding
in
winter.
Observe the following aspects
for
economi-
cal fuel consumption:
- The planned inspection intervals must be
closely observed.
- Regular service by a specialized.
dealer will guarantee not only continued
operability, but also economical fuel cons-
umption, low environmental pollution and
a long lifespan.
-Check the tyre pressure every two weeks.
Low tyre pressure increases rolling resista-
nce. This increases fuel consumption and
tYtl' wear and adversely affects riding beh-
aviour.
- Continually check fuel consumption.
- Frequently check the engine-oil level.
