What octane do you guys run?

 

Since it only holds a few gallons, why not give her the best?

 

I was told by a mechanic that Down here in AZ and CA specfically there are alot of extra additives into 92 octane gas that for the little power u get are really bad for the carbs. Dont know if there was any truth to it but i ahbe been running 87 for a bit now and notice no change.

 

my bike is endorsed by camel cigarettes

87!

 

I agree with you crazyhorse, it does not hold much so use the best. Thats what I use. 93 helps clean the crap out of the carbs and carbon out of the engine cause it burns hotter and faster. I always run 93 in both my cars and my bike. In my opinion the cheaper crap helps create the just in the injectors and on top of pistons and what not.

 

Its $4.02 over here for a gallon of super and our gas prices are allways going up and down so I guess it depends on where the price is but I never put regular

 

$4.02 geez, I thought the 3.25 I pay is high.

 

iusually run the highestive found in any bike i have ever ridden. down here in texas i have only found 93 to be the highest but back in ohio at a certain gas station a few years back sold 103. that made the bike run good but really hot. cleaned the valves pretty good. lol

 

Matt - What part of Texas are you in?

 

Yea I always run 93 in mine to. Of course that is all I put in my car to though.
