I frequent a near by gas station that sells unethanoled (is that a word?) high test - approx 93 octane. On the CB my seat of the pants dyno can't tell a difference. Same with my wife's CaAm Spyder - no change in performance.
Believe it or not my Ural - 1950's technology airhead - can tell a HUGE difference. Book says run hi-test in the Ural so I normally do.

After several tanks of ethanol free hi-test in the CB I switched back to what the book recommends. Those Honda engineers know their stuff. Less expensive gas means more time to ride.
