OK, I'll jump into this one. My ex son-in-law drove fuel trucks for a few years. The local independent gas station owner pays less per gallon if they can take the entire tanker's load. So, if he was delivering regular and couldn't empty the truck, the gas station owner would tell him to just dump the rest in the premium tank. An isolated incident ? Perhaps not. But something to think about when comparing octane ratings. We really don't know what's coming out of that nozzle. I've never felt any difference in fuels for any of my bikes or cars. However.... remember Sunoco 260 ??!! When you're 17 years old that stuff could add untold horsepower to Chevy six cylinder. Or maybe not. Rocket
