Hello
What fuel do you use for your motorcycles? Is it necessary to add an additif to unleaded petrol and how much?

Re: Fuel / Additif
Ethanol free petrol if you can find it otherwise use E5'. No additive needed but some members use a lead replacement/octane booster such as Castrol Valvemaster.

Re: Fuel / Additif
I dont put any additive in any of my bikes and they range from 1927 H4 through to 1969 G15CSR
Personally any recession has not been noticeable in the mileage i do
It is personal choice
I will up with what ever is available E5 or E10
If you use you bike at maximum power or extended periods of time , then maybe an additive may give some benefit

Re: Fuel / Additif
You can, but that's a lot of faffing about when it's more fun to just use the bike as intended and burn through petrol before it goes off!
