    Standard unleaded should be okay, but premium wouldn't hurt

    everyone will tell you what will happen if you use optimax.................

    when fuel was a little cheaper I used bp ulimate, highest octane rating
    available and got a reasonable sort of range out of a tankful. been
    useing random fuels and getting varied results all have been ULP have
    not bothered to record ks per litre but the gut feeling is better fuel
    milage from the ultimate to say nothing off the performance gain, I
    will start looking into how many extra ks or less for the price of
    premium

    You should get between 250 and 280 km to reserve when riding around the
    city. About 300 to 320 to reserve when touring at about 100 to 120
    km/hr. Expect a fair bit less at track days, say 200 km to reserve.

    Cheers,

    (Ladies and Gentlemen; meet the bloke who introduced me to aus.moto! No
    no, don't rush; there's plenty of rocks for everyone!)

    in the middle of the desert.

    Yeah, I'm still alive. I just don't read aus.moto as much as I used to.
    All I want to know is what have you done to Sam? I haven't seen her
    here for a very, very long time...

    Cheers,
    Viking

    Oh, BTW Clem, I think I still owe you a beer or two for that magazine
    article you sent me all those years ago.
