Hello everyone, petrol question

[husaberg]

Me too. But I'm 71 now and by the time I'm old enough to ride a Harley I won't be able to get it in or out of the shed.

To the OP, I was told by the mechanic stick to BP or Z. Not sure of Caltex but the others may have ethanol in the fuel and that is best avoided.

Pretty sure none of the South island petrol has ethanol

Maybe one of the Bandit owners can tell me if the gsf1200 runs well on 91 or stick to 96.

My GS1200ss ran exactly the same on 91 or 95. Other than the cost to my wallet.

I don't believe, I know. In the past I had to travel down there regularly and got caught out in shorts once. Never again.
The only game of football I ever played in sleet was in Dunedin, but that was when I was very young and didn't know any better.

You are right though, nice roads down there.

yeah, never played football, but the two yrs i lived in the naki we had some hellish hard frosts and some shit rain and wind, come to think of it the only place i have ever come off due to ice was down the morea valley (google it if you don't know where it is).
now i hear today they had snow in my home town (Te Puke).

I have lived in a lot of different places in our wee country and all have problems with the weather if ya want to look for weather related problems so we just ride anyway

Mate if there lucky enough to get a just overcast with 75% chance of heavy rain they head to the beach down there,height of summer they swim out to the icebergs in the harbour.
