Wouldn't the gas have to be 91+? I don't have a manual, but even my 96 ZX-6E required premium.
What about E10? I've been looking all over for some 100% pure dinosaur juice, but big corn is cornholing us at every gas station with this E10 bull****. The stations I know of that sale 100% are too far away to go fill up on the bike, and I know my wife's 92x gets better mileage with the real deal instead of E10, so what about the bike?
