FUEL
Manual Fuel Cock
The manual fuel cock (1) is under the left
side of the fuel tank. Set it to ON for normal
operation or RES when you start to run out
of the main fuel supply. The OFF setting is
only for long term storage or servicing of
fuel system components.
Automatic Fuel ON-OFF
With the fuel cock set to ON (or RES) fuel
flows to the carburetors only when the
engine is being started or is running. A
diaphragm shuts off fuel flow when the
engine is turned off.
Reserve Fuel
When the main fuel supply is gone, turn the
fuel cock to RES. Refill the tank as soon as
possible after switching to RES, then switch
the cock back to ON.
The reserve fuel supply is:
3.5 fi (0.92 US gal, 0.77 Imp gal)
* To avoid running out of fuel that may
result in a sudden stop, learn how to
operate the fuel cock when riding the
motorcycle.
NOTE:
* Remember to check that the fuel cock is
in the ON position each time you refuel.
If the cock is left in the RES position, you
may run out of fuel with no reserve.
