Fuel tank
Fuel tank
The engine of this motorcycle works with
a mixture of unleaded petrol and 2S oil,
100% synthetic in a 0.9 proportion.
The Explorer has two fuel tanks, one forms a struc-
tural part of the chassis and is located on the front
inside part. The other one is made of polyamide
plastic and is located in the classic position on the
frame. To fill up with petrol, open the upper fuel tank
lid, situated on the upper part, by unscrewing in an
anti-clockwise direction.
It’s recommended that a hose or funnel
is used to fill up to avoid spilling the
petrol. This is especially important if the
motorcycle is hot. DO NOT fill up with
petrol when the motorcycle is turned on.
