You could use regular just fine but most people opt for the premium. Try a search on this forum for "gas", or "fuel" and you will find more detailed info than I can give you regarding the details of what you get for your money. A lot of people use race gas also, but the cost is about twice that or more compared to premium.

Glad to help. Wish I could go riding with you. My bike is in pieces. Hopefully next weekend.

IMO unless you have any modification done to your bike, run either 87 or 89. No need for 91,93,94 or higher unless you have done some work on your engine (shaved heads,higher compression.....)

Just fixing it. I hope. See my "220 Died" thread for details. New bikes are always nice to have. I'm trying to convince the wife that I "need" a new one now. ;)
