Petrol in a bike how long is it good for?
Oddjob:
They used to use Castor oil in WW1 aircraft, however the fumes used to give the pilots the shits , so much so that after a lot of missions they had to hose out the cockpit.
Think of people behind you sucking in all that diluted castor oil, do you really want to make them shit themselves? :) :) :) :)
mike the bike:
I went on a 130 mile round trip on the 400. Going over the mountain, it lacked power to the extent that I put off an overtake. Not like me at all, I overtake most things. I'm wondering if it's that E10 shite I filled up with.
Had anyone else used E10 and ground it lacking in power?

A lot of the early WW1 aircraft had rotary engines which flung out neat oil and the airflow blew it straight backwards into the pilot's face. A much bigger problem than burning castor oil at 100 to 1. The clowns sitting in metal boxes with filtered air won't even notice. 😁

At least they were regular. ;) ;)
