Fuel expands when its temperature rises. Therefore do not fill the tank to
the top (see fig.).
Fuel taps
The motorcycle is equipped with two fuel taps. A fuel pump is installed to
pump the fuel from the tank to the carburetor.
The left fuel tap
A can each be turned to three different positions:
OFF
In this position the fuel tap is closed. No fuel can flow to the carburetor.
ON When using the motorcycle, the twist grip must be set to the ON
position. Now fuel can flow to fuel pump. In this position the tank
empties down to the fuel reserve of approx. 2,0 liters (0,5 US gallone).
RES The reserve, approximately 2,0 liters (0,5 US gallone), cannot be tap-
ped until the twist grip is turned to the RES position. Fill the tank as
soon as possible and remember to turn the twist grip back to the ON
position so that you will have backup fuel next time, too.

T
HE FUEL TAP MUST ALWAYS BE CLOSED WHEN THE MOTORCYCLE IS PARKING. OTHER-
WISE THE CARBURETOR CAN OVERFLOW AND FUEL COULD FLOW INTO THE ENGINE.
NOTE:
The fuel tap must be open during operation. The fuel tap must be closed for
parking.
Emergency fuel tap
The emergency fuel tap B is situated on the right side of the fuel tank.
This is closed when the engine is running. As a result, approx. 1.5 liters
(0,4 US gallone) of fuel will remain in the right half of the fuel tank as a
reserve. The emergency fuel tap will only be opened whenever the fuel
reserve is required.
Turn the fuel tap
A to the RES position and open the emergency fuel tap B
(turn the knob anti-clockwise) and a total of 3.5 liters (0,9 US gallone) of
reserve fuel for normal driving, will become available.
- Should the reserve fuel be all used up, you will need at least 4 liters
(1 US gallone) of fuel before the engine will start up again.
- When it is started up, the system will automatically be bled.
