Fuel – Petrol/oil mixture

I
To ensure the correct working of the engine, the following are recommended:
- Use high quality petrol, with an octane rating equal to or above 90
(RON +MON)/2 or 98 (RON).
- Use 2T synthetic oil.
Warning:
- If the recommended oil is not available, use semi-synthetic oil.
- Do not mix different oil-types.
Mixture ratio: oil, 2% of petrol volume (50 parts petrol to every 1 part oil).
Note: we recommend first preparing the mixture in a suitable container
and then filling the fuel tank.
The motorcycle is fitted with a two-stroke internal combustion
engine. This type of engine requires a mixture of petrol and
oil.
