(1/4) > >>

SteveW:
Anyone else seen this, seems the new ethanol petrol is no good for old bikes.

Its shite. :-(

Moorey:
They said the same about unleaded then E5 and now E10.  E5 should still be available at the same time but no doubt at a premium price.

royhall:
It's come to something when were accepting E5 as our salvation. Any ethanol is too much ethanol.

Tomb:
I've been using E10 on European trips for years in my 40 year old bikes, never had an issue. I put normal fuel in when back in UK so can't comment on how it affects things when parked, but it ran ok.
