yes you can but its not necessary. higher octane is needed for compression and timing increases. since youre all stock you can actually run pump gas. the 111 will not hurt you or help you in this case.

I have some mods like exhaust ,filter,reeds,wiseco pistons my brother put some 111 in his yfz 450 and had more snap

the yfz is a 4 stroke and has more compresion than a stock banshee, you are better off with premium fuel but the 111 will be ok but a waist of money

You might actually lose some power. It will ignite slower than 91 octane. Probably not enough to notice though.

true-if you don't need it it's no help at all.i mde hundreds of passes(no lie) on my old street bike(cb1100f)and it would run better on 93 octane than race gas.the smell is nice though

It definitely smells good, but for $7 a gallon I wouldn't run it unless it is needed. I have to run it bacause of compression and it can be a pain in the ass to find so you'll have to take plenty with when going riding. I also want to take a trip to the Hatfield McCoy trails and I guess I'm going to have to change my domes out so I can run pump gas because I dont think its available there.
