It's available online but I just cracked a beer and can't be bothered looking for it.

The Jist of it was that unless your engine is specificaly built and tuned for a higher octane fuel then don't waste your money.
They slammed the big Petrol Co's for missleading the public with false advertising and had all the info to back it up.

In the Busa however I think either 95 or 98 is both as good as each other.
For the record I have only used 98 because it's like liquid bling for my bike.
I agree. The way I see it Compression wise the Busa is highly strung enough to warrant 98 octane at sea level. Running it in the hope that it will make more power is money wasted. PaulVery Happy.
