Default Ethanol/E10?

Hey guys,

I'm new to the bike scene and was just wondering how HD's handled E10. I currently live in an area (ATL, GA) where all of the gas stations have switched to selling E10 only and my car hasn't handled it very well. Since getting non-ethanol fuel is out of the question, I figured it wouldn't hurt to ask if it's going to be a problem - I know a lot of high-performance applications are hurt by this E10 stuff.

Thanks in advance...

If your talking about 10% ethanol in the gas, it causes no problem. A recent trip to Fla., all the pumps had a posting saying contains no more than 10% ethanol and I had no problem out of my 09.

Seems to give a little worse gas mileage. Other than that, OK.
