Hey everyone gottta question...I was riding the trails the other day and I realized I was running low on gas so I switched to res but when I got home I was out of super premium....ISo I put regular unleaded in it ...IS this a bad thing like is it ok to mix unleaded and super premium? just enough to get home?

 

This will not cause a problem. You may even find that you can run on lower octane w/o any problems

 

No it will not cause a problem but if you are running stock compression you should be running regular unleaded (87octane) instead of super unleaded on a regular basis.

 

why is that?
I've heard depending on the temp, 87 might even work better.

 

I may actually be wrong in saying you should use 87 on a stock bike. Bombardier recommends 91 octane on the DS. On the other hand I have heard other say 87 makes more HP on a stock bike. I want to say it was MrHP who said this.

Personally I would stick with what the manufacturer recommends.

 

87 is fine, thats pretty much all i've ever run through it, specially with the gas prices now
