i thought leaded fuel was no longer available....do you mean super unleaded??
it will be unleaded fuel the bike uses or should use.there is no advantage in using super unleaded unless it was very high performance etc.
:D
please,god,....give me the chance to prove that winning the lottery won't spoil me!!!

I think DanieS is a saffa based member? No idea what the fuelling situation is over there..

The buke should run unleaded as the Japanese use it and would expect you to find no problems using unleaded fuel.

You should be right to run unleaded as it's post '86.

Hi there,

Petrol with an octane rating of 95RON or higher is ideal.

Thanks.

I am from SA.

We have LRP ( Leaded replacement petrol ) and Unleaded
The local BP gerage and Shell gerage has 95 Unleaded but in SA the "OLD" cars use LRP and the newer cars use Unleaded.
My car uses Unleaded and if i use LRP then the car loses power and visa versa that is why i was wondering.
But if they only use Unleaded over seas then i can uses 95 Unleaded in the bike.
