Recommended fuel
UNLEADED GASOLINE ONLY
Fuel tank capacity:
6.0 L (1.59 US gal, 1.32 Imp.gal)
ECA11400
NOTICE
Use only unleaded gasoline. The
use of leaded gasoline will cause
severe damage to internal engine
parts, such as the valves and pis-
ton rings, as well as to the exhaust
system.
Your Yamaha engine has been
designed to use regular unleaded
gasoline with a pump octane number
[(R+M)/2] of 86 or higher, or a re-
search octane number of 91 or higher.
If knocking (or pinging) occurs, use a
gasoline of a different brand or pre-
mium unleaded fuel. Use of unleaded
fuel will extend spark plug life and re-
duce maintenance costs.
Gasohol
There are two types of gasohol: gaso-
hol containing ethanol and that con-
taining methanol. Gasohol containing
ethanol can be used if the ethanol
content does not exceed 10% (E10).
Gasohol containing methanol is not
recommended by Yamaha because it
can cause damage to the fuel system
or vehicle performance problems.

The exhaust system is hot after op-
eration. To prevent a fi re hazard or
burns:
Do not park the vehicle near
possible fi re hazards such as
grass or other materials that
easily burn.
Park the vehicle in a place
where pedestrians or children
are not likely to touch the hot
exhaust system.
Make sure that the exhaust

fore doing any maintenance
work.
Do not allow the engine to idle
more than a few minutes. Long
idling can cause a build-up of
heat.
