    Hi Ron, To answer your question,first read the owners manual on your bike. You can also do a search in the forum for" octane ". I am sure you will find many words written regarding that subject. eddie

    86-87 octane should be fine. Every 3000 miles, dump 12 oz. of Chevron Techron concentrate into a nearly empty tank, then fill 'er up, and ride.:thumbsup:
