[QUOTE="yamadogyz, post: 39756, member: 377"] Lets put it this way, people can go as low as 95 and have NO PROBLEMS what so ever. You'd even be safe with 93. The reason they say this is because all race bikes are incredibly high performance, because of this, they don't handle engine build up well at all. The build up on your engine for low grade gas tars up your valves, top end, rings and all that good stuff causing them to heat up, not let in fluids and just be a pain in the ass. High octane just means that it's a cleaner, more even burn and not that it's more explosive. To prove that lower octane gas has a dirty burn do this. Go outside, and burn a little can of oil, desiel fuel, gas and then go hold a match to your propane tank (just kidding, don't do that :smirk:) The oil burns real dirty, the fuel burn a little dirty, the gas burns ok, and the propane is perfectly clean. Enough to cook off. Any help? [/QUOTE]
