    Not sure how this all works. Maybe someone could help me. I just purchased a 955i. I know very little about the bike and am contacting someone for information. It is a 2006 with 29000 miles. When I check the oil I assume I do not screw it in. Is that correct? What type of gas does it use? How do I deal with the plastic tank and ethanol gas? Any other pieces of information would be appreciated. I now have four bikes and I have been riding for 51 years.

    Hi, Oliver.
    Check the oil by screwing the dip stick fully in.
    Over here it will run on our 95 octane (RON?) unleaded.
    If you have access to ethanol free petrol (gas!) then it may be worth using that instead. Over here it is called super unleaded (around 97 octane), and many brands have little or no ethanol in them.
    Hope that helps!:)
