this is copied from yamaha australia's website, it is in there support section,
Fuels
ETHANOL BLENDED FUELS
Q. Are Yamaha Motorcycles, ATV's and SSV's designed to operate on Ethanol Blended Fuels.
No, All current and previous models are NOT designed for Ethanol Blended Fuels at any percentage. (ie. E5, 5% and E10, 10%).
If Ethanol Blended Fuels are used you may experience driveability and running problems, fuel component deterioration and damage due to moisture.

Interesting that the Australian website says this.
Maybe different range of bikes or out of date website.
All the big bikes Yamaha are selling in Thailand, statein their user handbooks, which are in English, specifically that gasohol E10 is OK. The petrol cap on the Nouvo Elegance bought this year, had on Green E10 sticker, saying OK to use E10 Gasohol. Same sticker on my Toyota Fortuner, bought last year.
So unfortunately conflicting information again. |
