This motorcycle is equipped with a catalytic converter in the exhaust system. Platinum and rhodium
contained inside the converter will react with carbon monoxide and convert hydrocarbons into carbon
dioxide and water�
For proper operation of the catalytic converter, the following cautions must be followed:
Only use unleaded gasoline. Never use leaded gasoline which will significantly reduce the service life of
the catalytic converter�
Do not let the vehicle skid when the ignition switch or the stop switch is off; Do not attempt to start the
engine for a longer time when the battery is low in power. When the gear is not in Neutral, do not drag the
vehicle or let the piston move. Under these improper conditions, extra unburned air/fuel mixture can flow
into exhaust system, accelerating the reaction with the converter which will damage the heated engine, or
reduce the converter performance when the engine is cooled off.
Only use unleaded gasoline. Even only a little lead can damage the precious metals inside the catalytic
converter, causing catalytic converter failure. Do not add anti-rust oil or engine oil into the muffler, which
may result in the catalytic converter's failure.
