Geektastic: I did use it and the bike seems fine.

I noted that BP have a habit of skipping 95 altogether and offering only 91 and 98 at many locations.

 

My assumption is that this is due to most existing stations only having 3 tanks.  So they can run a combination of Diesel, 91 and either 95 OR 98.  The newer built or rebuilt stations are often putting in 4 tanks so they can have 95 AND 98.

I am dreading if NZ does that backwards stupid thing the UK has done with forcing ethenol in fuel, but they seem to be intent in killing off cars over there so I guess thats just another way they're achieving it, all while costing people even more along the way.

 

 

Ethanol is even worse for boats, because it absorbs water and boats are operated in a humid environment.  So you can get ethanol/water layers develop in the bottom of the tank.  Good money for the fuel polishing services.
