General Information
Ethanol
Ethanol fuel is a mixture of 10% Ethanol and
90% gasoline and is often described under
the names 'gasohol', 'Ethanol enhanced', or
'contains Ethanol'. This fuel may be used in
your Triumph motorcycle.
MTBE (Methyl Tertiary Butyl Ether)
The use of gasolines containing up to 15%
MTBE (Methyl Tertiary Butyl Ether) is
permitted in this Triumph motorcycle.
Methanol
Because of the generally higher volatility of
oxygenated fuels, starting, engine
response and fuel consumption may be
adversely affected by their use. Should any
of these difficulties be experienced, run the
motorcycle on normal unleaded gasoline.
To help reduce hazards associated with
refuelling, always observe the following
fuel safety instructions:
Gasoline (fuel) is highly flammable and can
be explosive under certain conditions.
When refuelling, turn the ignition switch to
the 'OFF' position.
Do not smoke.
Do not use a mobile telephone.
Make sure the refuelling area is well
ventilated and free from any source of
flame or sparks. This includes any
appliance with a pilot light.
Never fill the tank until the fuel level rises
into the filler neck. Heat from sunlight or
other sources may cause the fuel to
expand and overflow creating a fire
hazard.
After refuelling always check that the fuel
filler cap is correctly closed and locked.
Because gasoline (fuel) is highly
flammable, any fuel leak or spillage, or any
failure to observe the safety advice given
above will lead to a fire hazard, which
could cause damage to property, injury to
persons or death.
