Hey Steve
Thanks for the post here. I liked the "yea, that sounded good" comment
:)... I was told that the bike would run on 91 octane just fine. I
haven't really noticed any ticking sounds but I am concerned that I am
under on my octane. I think my compression ratio has dropped by about
10% so I am really around 12.5 maybe to 1 ... that is due to this
elevation.
Take care Phil
