Power Vision and 100LL
Anyone tried running 100LL with a specific map on PowerVision? I'm thinking about a 103 with 10.0:1, heads done, SE255's, exhaust and an A/C in a 2007 EGC.
I have ready access to normal pump gas, but it seems everywhere I go, that Ethanol trash is more and more popular. I also have ready access to 100LL. I am thinking PV with a map for 91, E85, and 100LL. That way, no matter where I am, and what fuel I burn, my map is optimal for the fuel. Thoughts?

Running 100LL or any other leaded fuel will screw up you bike. Maybe not right away but over time. The first thing it will do is burnout the CAT and plug up your exhaust. The next thing it will due is trash your heads.
These bikes were not meant to be run on leaded fuel. 100LL is not that low in lead content.

I know here in KS and OK, non ethanol fuel is plentiful, but I went to Florida a while back, and noticed blended ethanol was all I could find once I got east of Arkansas.

E85 and normal blended ethanol are totally different animals. I believe that standard blended is 10% ethanol 90 gas, E85 is 85% ethanol 15% gas.

100LL has lead in it. It is LOW lead AV Gas. That will toast the O2 sensors really quick, besides what was posted by Bubzero.
running 10% alcohol is about the norm. You can NOT trust what a gas pump says either... as some states, like OHIO for sure, has a law that allows gasoline retailers to forget about all of the sticker crap.
