    Fuckers don't do 98 though. Instant fail.

    I do love the fact that they're consistently trying to keep the other four rogues in line.

    But I use their 98 in the C50T as often as possible. It is a blend, but my bike is suitable for it and seems to run great on it!

    So you say they DO do 98? I've gotta look further then, the one on Rosscommon doesn't unfortunately.

    They do the stuff called "Force 10"
    It's blended with 10% biofuel.
    The Gull station in Tairua has it.... the sem fiddy got a bellyfull of it a couple of weeks ago

    Tairua was where I was introduced to it and the C50T went like a scalded cat on the stuff. It seemed to be tuned for it. The owner's manual says to use 91 "or higher" without specifying how high you can go, but 'seat of the pants' says it makes a real difference.

    The nearest station to me is Greville Rd. Albany and they have it there.

    It's 97.5, but you can round it up to 98 if you want.

    where opinion holds more weight than fact.

    It's better to not pass and know that you could have than to pass and find out that you can't. Wait for the straight.

    i stopped using them when they went biofuel, as i didnt want to risk it in the bike. the booklet they gave me wasnt very detailed on what it was safe for etc.

    the really happy person is one who can enjoy the scenery when on a detour.

    I don't use Gull as I have no idea what that biofuel will do to my bike. Don't surpose any VTR owners out there do use Gull and have no problems with their fuel?

    It was an abbreviation/conglomeration of kilo's and metres.

    Or open honesty, one or the other. (Or both.)

    And what's wasted about your line?

    I've used Force 10 in the SV since day 1. It hasn't gone BANG! yet...

    The bike manual does approve of 10% ethanol blends BTW
