+1 mwahahahhaha

 

The owners manual states 86 octane or higher. Using a higher octane than an engine can use will cause depsoit build up, no extra zip, and a drained wallet.

On occasion I'll put in 88 or 89 octane, I'm a sucker for the "Clean" wording that Phillips 66 uses on there mid grade fuels, like it might actually clean my fuel system. Doubt it does anything, but like I said, I'm a sucker.

My choices are similar; 87,88,89,90, and 91 being the highest. I wish we had 93 available, I'd love to try it in my 1000RR, which states high octane fuel only, right on the tank, so I use 91 in it.

 

LMAO,, well guys I never really knew what to pick due to all the threads,, I have started running mid-grade just cause I'd rather be 50% wrong then 100%. All the gas stations around here are not like this,, I ran across this off the highway. I thought it was funny cause I was blown away with the choices,, so I snapped a pic for ya'll. Anyhow, hope ya'll got a kick out of it

 

Dude, I was at a gas station down the street, and they had a way better selection!

 

what happened to elevnty billion octane?

voodoo went less octane to afford lingerie for his wife not me! so ask voodoo for the pix!

 

LOL!!! good stuff man!!

 

I use the cheaps gas mixed with Bacardi 151, some for the bike and the rest is for me.

 

Damn....
I went through all the posts and no pic yet of Mrs. Voodoo in the lingerie

 

Well I see that there really isn't a defined choice on which grade to use, but to switch it up a bit... Is there a brand that you prefer to use. I personal stick to Chevron, Shell, or Phillips. Reason being I read a while back that a Honda, BMW, Toyota, and I think GM made a higher standard for gas to keep engines cleaner. Its called Top Tier Gasoline. Check out the web site to see what I mean. www.toptiergas.com I read it in a exotic car magazine one day. In the magazine they recomended to only use this stuff to really take care of your engines. That's when I looked it up and liked what I saw. What do you guys think of this stuff?

 

This debate can go on forever. Which slip on is the best? Which tires are the best? Do I need a power commander? How fast can you go? Pro Life vs Pro Choice? The best gas? Whatever you can afford to put in your bike to keep it running.
