So, recently i purchased my first motorcycle ever! (1980 R65)
I've been doing a bit of riding on it but I'm running low on fuel and will have to fill up soon.
The guy that I bought my motorcycle from told me that he put only 87 octane ethanol free gas.
But the label on the bike recommends 91 octane. It's running just fine right now but will it damage
the bike at all if i continue to use a lower octane rating that is ethanol free or should I look for a higher
grade gasoline? I'd probably use 93 as that is what seems to be available to me where I live.
