Evaporative Emission Control Svstem (California only)
l
This motorcycle complies with the California Air Resources Board (CARB) require-
ments for evaporative emission regulations. Fuel vapor from the fuel tank is directed
into the charcoal canister where it is absorbed and stored while the engine is stopped.
When the engine is running, fuel vapor in the charcoal canister is drawn into the engine
through the carburetor.
Crankcase Emission Control System
l
The engine is equipped with a closed crankcase system to prevent discharging crank-
case emissions into the atmosphere.
Blow-by gas is returned to the combustion chamber through the air cleaner and the
carburetor.
