Every year a new super bike calender yet not one has ever featured the Hayabusa. Really?
Nah , super/super sport are often viewed as the same in some parts of the world. If the zx14 can be classed as a "superbike" the companies that make calendars why not the busa ?.Is the Hayabusa really considered a super bike? I thought it was classified as a sport touring bike.

Hayabusa's are great .
It's just that,
not every man can ride one .
I tend to run hi octane (95/98)fuel Here. Mainly from Mobil or Z (formally Shell),it's usually clean and water free. If they water test their tanks often then it's good. Caltex is crap and would use only in my lawnmower or boat.BP's so so when they keep thier price down and more competitive, we require our fuels here to have at least 10%biofuel additives in it and some bikes won't run with it.Chevron is closest to my home and then Shell for my bikes and my supercharged Caddy unless I'm on tour and run into various other brands. Never had a bad fuel problem and maybe twice a year I run a little Seafoam thru them. I use mid grade 89 octane in my bikes and 91 or better in the Caddy.
Yeah . I saw91 is tops out here with an occasional 93 pump to be found. There is one 76 station in town that sells race gas for nearly eight bucks a gallon but nothing I have is tuned for that octane.
Yeah I saw your fuel types and prices,real cheap compared to ours. 1 litre equal 4.5 gallons. We pay around $2 a litre. We have 4 octane levels 91/95/96/98 bikes like ours are recommended to use 96 or 98 as a lower octane can cause ponging and misfiring.91 is tops out here with an occasional 93 pump to be found.

PingingYeah . I saw

Perris eh?
I lived in Hemet for a couple years in the early 60's whenever I was a kid.
Too hot !
The pump up here has a statement on it that it's NOT Union 76 fuel
even though it's from a pump at their gas station .
