Re: Premium brand petrol or supermarket fuel?
I am using the cheapest stuff I can get around here, which happens to be 95 octane Gasohol, as it is called here. It is essentially gasoline with 5% Ethanol. According to the manual, I might use 91 octane Gasohol or even E20, with 20% Ethanol. Look at the signature for mileage
Phuket is quite hilly, and I ride not alone all the time... Normal price for a litre is 37.77 Baht which is well below 1 Euro.

Bike history: Germany: Staiger 50cc 2-stroke, BMW 250 (from 1952, my age), Honda Dax ST70, Honda CB 125 (Twin), Honda CB 750, Kawa Z400j
Thailand: Kawa Zephyr 400, Honda Wave 110 S, Kawa ZX130, PCX 150 (as far as I can remember)

I use Morrisons petrol as it is on the way to work and is the cheapest and I get better milage than the equivalent Shell product.So far I haven't had any problems with the "cheaper" petrol
