Like the others said it really doesnt matter as long as its 86 up ,and preferably a name brand gas (or at least a gas station that has lots of traffic).Because then you have less of a chance to get bad fuel (aka water in it from the gas sitting for awhile).

Mine has a slight bit of spark knock in the lower rpms(below 4k) if i run 87 .No issues with 89 and 93.Mine gets a couple miles to gallon more with 89 than 87(same stations,filled the exact same way everytime).

I use 89 just because it's usually the same price around here. Seems to run just fine no matter what octane. However, I had just a small amount of casey's gas (89 octane) in it over the winter and it watered down on me and fouled the plugs when i went to start it the next riding season. My fault for not filling the tank up before winter though.
