Guest Nogbad Posted May 30, 2006 Share Posted May 30, 2006 I just tried the 99 octane "Greenergy" petrol / bioethanol mix on sale at Tesco supermarket stations. The Buell runs a treat on it, smoother and cooler. I'm going to try it in the V11, price is OK at 98.5p / litre. I think this is the highest octane petrol on general sale here.

jimbemotumbo Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 99 in the UK is the same as 91 US rating (many states get 93). Hmmm, I thought the UK generally had better availability of higher octane fuels than here in the states? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I fill my wife's car with petrol it might as well be rats' piss for all the notice I take. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
