When I bought my Springer, the manual said to use premium and I have been ever since. When I pay that kind of money for a Harley, I follow the manual as close as possible.

I'm hoping that my engine upgrade to 98" runs off pump gas, I don't want to fooling with additives.

Ha, when Steve gets done with it, you'll need rocket fuel and will not be able to keep a rear tire on it

Manufacter recommends 87 octane for my model, so that is what I use.

Pump gas will be fine I would never build a engine like mine without fully letting the customer know what he or she was getting. Dont get me wrong I love " my bitch" but it is not for everyone. In fact I had it sold the guy rode it it scared the crap out of him and he refused to buy it. His statement was " pnly some one with a death wish would ride that!!!" Not sure what he really meny I ride it dailey and I am not looking to die so I was a bit cornfused!!! LOL
