[QUOTE="spanky250, post: 148506, member: 20897"] [b]Re: race gas verse high test[/b] This is absolutely wrong. There is more to race gas than just octane. The improved response and consistant jetting far outweigh the small benefits of higher octane. Also, the octane has nothing to do with the "explosiveness" of the fuel. The fuel isn't supposed to "explode" in your engine, it is supposed to burn smoothly. When the fuel "explodes", it is called pre-ignition, pinging, or detonation, and is an engine-killer. And if you think running low-octane fuel won't hurt your engine, go ahead and put a fresh top-end in your bike, jet it really sharp, and go ride a few hard, fast laps. When you are pushing your bike back to the truck with a hole melted in the top of the piston from the detonation that resulted from the inadequate octane, you might just change your mind. [/QUOTE]
