another octane question
I have a 2011 FXFD which calls for 91 octane (which I put in). Another Rider made the point that when you go to gas pumps that have one hose and 3 buttons that the 1st half gal is what ever the last guy got because pumps do not pull back amount of gas in the hose. Is this enough to make a difference that adding a splash of octane boost might be needed or a good idea? I looked threw the forums and couldn't find this question.
Thanks for you're time.

If you are filling up and you get a .5 gallon of different fuel rating it is not going to hurt. You are adding a small %%%

That 1/2 gallon stuff, depends on several things.
In the heat, where you live, an octane booster(actually those are fuel modifiers)won't hurt, if you want to pour some in.
