Default Fuel?

Hi...I'm new to the forums. I just got my 1998 CBR 600F3 as my first motorcycle. This is probably a very mundane question...but what octane fuel do you guys use in your bikes? Thanks.

there are a bunch of threads talking about it.

My manual calls for 91, so I use high test....either 92 or 93 depending on what the gas station has

I've ran as low as 87 in mine from time to time and never had a problem with it.
