General Information
Fuel
Fuel Grade
Your Triumph engine is designed to use
unleaded fuel and will give optimum
performance if the correct grade of fuel is
used. Always use unleaded fuel with an
octane rating of 91 RON minimum.
Refuelling
In many countries, the exhaust systems for
these models are fitted with catalytic
converters to help reduce exhaust emission
levels. The catalytic converters can be
permanently damaged if the motorcycle is
allowed to run out of fuel or if the fuel level
is allowed to get very low. Always ensure
you have adequate fuel for your journey.
The use of leaded petrol is illegal in some
countries, states or territories. Use of
leaded fuel will damage the catalytic
converter.
To help reduce hazards associated with
fuel handling, always observe the following
fuel safety instructions:
Petrol (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 such that 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.
Because petrol (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.
