Compared to what grade of gas?

Around here it's about $1.10/gallon cheaper than 93 octane.



Compared to the 87 I run in it.
2005 S2R800
2006 S2R1000
2015 Monster 821

So the way I understand it is, regular gas is E90. That stuff is $1.83 this week compared to $3.49 for clear premium.

Im thinking the Clear premium isn't worth it.

Pretty sure you have that backasswards...shocking I know...

regular 87 octane fuel is E10.  :-*

IIRC that is RON octane, not RM/2 (or AKI) as in the US.
