It won't hurt anything, but it really doesn't help much either. infact the only difference you will beable to notice are, the bike will start easier & the motor will run quieter. It won't go any faster. It does smell good, if that helps!LOL

No big deal... just a waste of money.

Where are you guys all finding this high-octane gas? Here in Cali, I NEVER see anything higher than 91. That's "premium" in California.

I have a speedway gas station nearby that sells race gas (don't know the exact octane, but typically, it is either 105 or 110). The cost per gallon is roughly double that of regular unleaded the last time I looked. I don't have anything I would burn it in, so I don't pay super close attention to it.
