erickson483 Posted May 30, 2012 Report Share Posted May 30, 2012 What's your compression? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mouzon30 Posted May 30, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2012 Whats your elevation? Timing is at +4 I see. If race gas is readily available and you don't mind paying for it, I would run that. my elevation is 480 you think its ok to do 50/50 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mouzon30 Posted May 30, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2012 I would run race gas with your domes and timing at that alt. how much more power u think i would see Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robert0762 Posted May 30, 2012 Report Share Posted May 30, 2012 stock stroke or 4 mill. If your stock your fine to run pump gas . I got the same set up with a 4 mill and i run 50/50 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hotrodbanshee Posted May 30, 2012 Report Share Posted May 30, 2012 Depends on your compression and timing. I have a hjr dune port, 170psi compression, 6 degree advance and run 50/50 at sea level. She runs perfect Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robert0762 Posted May 31, 2012 Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 Race fuel will do nothing for you unless you r motor needs it because of high compression and advanced timing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mpd579 Posted May 31, 2012 Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 I'm at 1500 feet 180-185 compression and went +6 on the timing (kevin told me 2?) I running race gas worth the extra $ IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
do-work-son Posted May 31, 2012 Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 Race fuel will do nothing for you unless you r motor needs it because of high compression and advanced timing Your saying it's a waist to run higher octane fuel and any bike that does not have to run it ? Thought the higher octane fuel burned cooler keeping motor cooler and would help with throttle response burned cleaner not leaving as much un burnt fuel ?

hotrodbanshee Posted May 31, 2012 Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 It is a waste of money to run race fuel if your motor does not require it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hotrodbanshee Posted May 31, 2012 Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 If I was near stock with my motor I would not be running race fuel. Shit at $11.00 gallon it cost a lot to run the shee. I only make bout 13 mpg. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
do-work-son Posted May 31, 2012 Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 It is a waste of money to run race fuel if your motor does not require it. But why is a waist if I helps how is it a waist ? Or does it really not do anything and it all .. And if your mixing it would it be like 8 bucks a gallon. (. 1/2 of 11 is 5.50 and half of 92 at $5 $2.50 =8 ) I just mean two identical bike one running race fuel one running 92 there you don't think you would be able to tell witch one had the race fuel in it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hotrodbanshee Posted May 31, 2012 Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 You might notice a difference in smell out of the exhaust. Like I said if you have the timing and compression required to run race fuel, yes it will make a difference. But on a stock engine you won't notice anything but a lighter wallet. I read somewhere that running more octane than needed will hurt performance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
