If I can get it w/o I will but I won't go out of my way to. This bike doesn't seem to care about the ethanol as much as it does the octane. My last one did not care for it at all. The main thing is you get better milage running gas w/o ethanol in it.

 

I have a station just outside my sub-division that sells ethanol free gas. His premium gas is 93 octane. I get about 10% better fuel mileage on the ethanol free gas. Unfortunately, I'm not usually near my house when I need gas. With the 3.3 gallon tank, it's hard to plan the location of fuel purchases.

 

I have the same situation...93 non-ethanol gas and I always finish a ride by filling up there. Then at least when I start a ride I have a full tank going out of the house...
