89

I don't stunt so I guess that doesn't help you in the poll any.

Re: so what kinda gas you runnin in your high performance stuntastic machine??

lol stuntastic...... no it helps even if you dont stunt i just wanna know if im alone in useing regular fuel. dose it accually make a diffrence in performance cause i cant feel the diff between premium and regular personaly. i think at most it helps with trottle responce. if it dose i might wanna start useing betta crapp cause when im trying to wheelie and have limmited room to roll befor the front wheel has to be up or i have to come around for another swing it starts to **** me off even when theres a slight delay in responce....

run whatever doesn't knock/ping or the manufature recommends. higher octane DOES NOT!!!! equal higher performance. i don't get why this is so hard to understand and why people insist on wasting money.

I'm pretty sure my book calls for 87 in my f4i so that's what she gets

If my hoopties would run on ****...then that'd be what they get...technically speaking teddy b is right on the money...in all actuality, higher octane increases the heat of ignition/burn...alot of people see modded bikes gettin higher octane and they think "hey, maybe my bike will perform like a built/balanced/blueprinted 10 million dollar bike if i throw in race gas and like a gallon of octane booster"

87...

you can run 87 safely as long as it doesnt knock. running 93 instead of 87 wont do anything except empty your pockets!

Re: so what kinda gas you runnin in your high performance stuntastic machine??

I had a buddy when I was little that took a 200X 2 wheeler, and built the engine like dragster, had to run 110 octain, and it was still just a turd, kinda reminds me of alot of the puds that think having a badass bike will compensate for a 2" *****. Not like any of us have ridden with any squids like that before right? lol

I agree with Teddy B. I have a mint 04 F4i, and i put 87 in my ****. I spent $3.20 a gallon on 110 octane that didn't do squat.

Re: so what kinda gas you runnin in your high performance stuntastic machine??

Why not put 93 octane in your bike? It's not you're filling an SUV tank. It doesn't cost much to fill bike tank.
