Hi,
The battery is 12 volts. The engine lubrication is pump fed if there is a black tank with a red cap underneath the left hand (nearside) side panel. If there is no tank the oil is mixed in with the petrol at a ratio of 50:1 (1 litre oil to 50 litre petrol). There should be a steel measuring cup with level markings attached to the underside of the petrol tank filler cap. If the bike is an newer model there will probably be a locking petrol cap, so no measuring cup. Needle position try second from top as a start and move the clip up to lean the mixture or down to enrichen it as needed.

HTH,

David.
