The only NON-ethanol gas I can get is premium, hence premium it is (the real answer is ANY grade non-ethanol!) When I can't get nonethanol, I use midgrade. I get violent when I think about the ethanol bullshit, hoax perpetrated on us by the farm lobby and knee-jerk antifossilfuel assholes in washington
+++1 on the Assholes in Washington...Most don't know their ass from a "hot-rock"...
One more vote for non-ethanol, premium. I have always run premium in all my bikes. Small price difference but huge piece of mind difference. If there ever is a long term consequence from running lower octane; it will be too late to rectify the harm by the time I find out.

That is good news / I was afraid the dealer told me wrong.
Thank you, Steve
I grew up in Southern California in the late 60's through the 70s, graduated high school in the early 80s. California defeated smog issues that were so bad there were many days during the summer where it was literally *not safe* to go outside and play. So we pay more for gas and put catalytic converters on our cars, BFD.
Sorry, it's just that the California hate gets under my skin sometimes.
Oh, and I run regular unleaded 100%.
FWIW, every state that I have lived in outside of California has had catalytic converters since the 70's (even had yearly emissions checks since the 80's outside of CA) and some states are currently paying less than 1/2 for their gas. Don't you wonder (or know) where the other 50% $$$ is going in CA?
Also, can all CA commuters afford to have their gas rationed by 50% when no other state needs to ration gas at a time where there is a glut in the world supply?
Can all CA commuters afford $100,000 Teslas with huge obfuscated environmental impacts and tax subsidies (i.e. trade one environmental impact for a much more costly one on the backs of the taxpayers)?
Will all CA employers allow their employees to work 50% less and keep their jobs and benefits or will they outsource their jobs (and company) out of state or out of the country?
Sorry to the OP, didn't want to hijack the thread.
I run BP or Shell premium 93 octane only because all the gas in Illinois has 10% ethanol in it. I figure it cost me an extra 2-3 dollars per fill up to run 93 octane, I can live with that.
