NOTE:
• To help clean the air, Suzuki rec-
ommends that you use oxygen-
ated fuels.
• Be sure that any oxygenated fuel
you use has octane ratings of at
least 90 pump octane ((R+M)/2

• If you are not satisfied with the
driveablity of your motorcycle
when you are using an oxygen-
ated fuel, or if engine pinging is
experienced, substitute another
brand as there are differences
between brands.
