Is anyone using E15 Ethanol gasoline in their bikes ?
Luckily, we have many boat Marina's in our area that sells Non-Ethanol REC-90 gasoline, that I use all the time. There are even a few Speed Shops around that sells old fashioned, Leaded Premium and Cam 2 Racing Gas, but it's around $12.00 a gallon. Does using Ethanol (corn gas, as I call it) have any negative effects on your engine?

Re: Ethanol E15 Gasoline ?
I recently found out about a new gas station near me that sells the recreational Non-Ethanol 90 octane gasoline which you describe. Unfortunately, our trikes and bikes require a minimum of 92 octane gasoline. So I don't use or buy it. As far as using what you call "corn gas" in our trikes or bikes, I wouldn't. Our trikes and bikes don't come with an emblem that reads "FLEX FUEL" like the vehicles we drive, right? Again, a minimum of 92 octane is what our V-8's need to run on properly. IMHO
