Default Ethanol free gas

Filled up with my first tank of 91 octane ethanol free gas with my 08 Lo-Rider. I couldn't believe the difference in performance. We have a few around places my area but am wondering if anyone has used Sta-Bil 360 for this, I have used octane boost a few times but have not been impressed and it is $$$$$.

All of the gas I've ever seen is 10% ethanol. And I've never seen any sta-bill...but then I've never really looked for it.

Been using 93 corn free on every fill-up. Only corn fuel my bike has used has been while on trips.

Unless it has changed regular (red) Sta-Bil only stabilizes the fuel for up to two years. The Marine Sta-Bil (blue) stabilizes and treats the fuel for ethanol. Get the marine that's what I've been using for years. I don't use it in my bike but all other equipment.

In Iowa, Casey's and Hy Vee have no corn in their high octane gas. Have an app on my phone called Pure Gas which is very helpful.

I use the Pure Gas app. I have a station 3 blocks from my house that has 91 pure gas.
