I tend to go to Speedway, Speedy Rewards member, and Shell. They are the closest to my house.

I try to go with any brand that is Top Tier certified, whether it is for my CBR or my cars. Some major brands are not Top Tier certified (Mobil) and some smaller brands are (Quik Trip).

Damn I used to be concerned about running which kind of gas, and from where... I use to only put 93 from Shell in my F3... then I switched to 87 from anywhere after realizing it doesnt even require 93.....

Thats what I run now, 87 from the closest, or cheapest place... my 29 runs great on it

Now that I think about it, maybe SOME knocking at 87. Going to try 89 next time and see what happens, otherwise I suggest 87 from cheapest place.

93 made my bike run horrible, so i did 87 and it ran great! till one day i heard gossip bout 89 running best and i tried it and well, maybe its in my head-but im gonna keep with the 89. i think its prolly just bc the 89 has no ethanol here but the 87 does. but either way im happy with the results from the 89. i usually go to shell, they r the only ones here who advertise ethanol free mid-grade and premium. everywhere else has ethanol in everything and i just dont think it runs as good
