I found an ethanol free station in Deery, Idaho. Other than that every pump at every station in every state I've traveled (over a dozen) has an ethanol sticker on it. I've never asked if that sticker includes all grades (they're all on one pump most of the time) but I think I'll start asking.

It's been ethanol mix here for the last 10 years. I have never had a problem with it and fuel lines. What gets me is it costs more to produce ethanol then it's worth. What a stupid idea some idiot had.

In Minnesota they are hard to find but stations that sell pure gas do exist here. You could try Googling it - I did and found a list of stations that sell gas with no fillers for Minnesota.

Its not just an issue of your bike running better its an issue of increased food prices and damage to the environment. Ethanol is a very bad idea.
