93 is what the MoCo recommends. I would call your salesman back and bitch at him for not telling you that.

I"m pretty sure it says in the manual for my '05 to use supreme, and I know Bruce, the HD salesman told me to use supreme.
I have only used supreme except when I was stuck at a gas station without 90-something octane and not enough gas to move on. The bike ran like poo.
A 76 station near my parents' house had racing fuel, over 100 octane. Every once in a while, I'd run my car down to fumes and put in a few gallons of the racing fuel (It was OUTRAGEOUSLY expensive, like $3/gallon), and the car ran like new. It was a 20 year old Oldsmobile with over 100k mi.

Semantics....who cares...you know what they mean so what difference does it make.
If it works better then it is better...period.

That's why I use the "better" gas.
