i genarally mix my own fuel anyway.. i run 98 octane Mobile - 10 litres, BP Kumeu has 105 octane leaded race gas - 11.5 litres and to turn the Slow Burn Race Gas into a fast burn ( increase flame front and release more power ) i add about 1/4 litre of Acetone and 1/4 litre of Toluene.. yoiu can feel it in the seat of your pants and it gives the exhaust a great smell ( and chucks flames out of the can on the over-run..)

About the only additives that will make a difference!

Don't waste your money on power pills and such like. They're a gimmick of no actual value except psychologically.

There are fuel addditives that can help clean injectors and carb jets but apart from that, just keep the bike well tuned.
