Author Message   Crazyhorus Posted on Sunday, July 08, 2007 - 07:22 pm:        Has anyone run their Uly on Opal fuel, I am planning a trip and wondered if I can expect any issues (other than pinging due to it only being 91octane) as this will be the only fuel available for part of the trip.   Adamd Posted on Sunday, July 08, 2007 - 08:00 pm:        91 octane is what us canucks usually use. You can even run 87 but it will ping under med-heavy throttle...   Bertotti Posted on Sunday, July 08, 2007 - 08:49 pm:        I've been running 89 10% ethanol and haven't had any pinging.   Crazyhorus Posted on Sunday, July 08, 2007 - 10:06 pm:        I am more interested if anyone has experience with this specific (non unleaded) fuel as this will be the only fuel available in many places.   Bertotti Posted on Monday, July 09, 2007 - 01:12 am:        I didn't understand that it is regular leaded gas. Where are you riding?   Crazyhorus Posted on Monday, July 09, 2007 - 03:21 am:        It's not leaded gas either, it's specificaly designed with low aromatics to reduce petrol sniffing in some of the areas of the country http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opal_(fuel) My playground is the land of Oz, land of the freakishly big mice
