Re: Grade Of Fuel Poll
I have never seen 91. All I have ever seen in Texas is 93 with 89 for mid and 87 for regular. Maybe it has something to do with the altitude. In Houston we are about 10 feet above sea level. My guess is you could alternate between 93 and 89 every other tank and probably be OK if you fill up about half way but why take a chance for 50 cents saved.

Well, the last time I filled up the bike (on Tuesday's great December ride - 76* and sunny  ), I noticed that they did not have a 91 octane here in TN. They had 87, 89 and 93 choices, and I don't know if I even want to try an 89 octane in the Heritage.
