I don't know Russian Wolf, so I don't know how reliable his information is, although it appears to be on target. Anyone can put up a website, start a motorcycle business and accumulate followers. Those things alone, or in aggragate, does not mean that the person doing these things actually knows anything of value. I'm new here, so I'm not prepared to kiss the ring just yet. On the other hand, having over forty years of experience of operating, modifying and repairing engines of all types, I tend to lean upon my own experience before trusting someone else that I do not know.

Don't be so eager to make someone else look bad. You jumped the gun on this one.

Personally, I would rather be friends.
Your right Ed . After rereading a couple of your post ,I can see that your generalizing while talking about octane ratings an I'm talking about the 800 an higher octane fuels. As far as RW's web site go's it's made up of alot of info from other vroc'ers over the years an if you choose not to believe everything you read concerning the 800 thats fine by me , it's your choice , but the majority of the info is right on when it comes to the 800 so do what you want with the info. Your right about being new to this site an not kissing the ring ( knowone asked you too) on the same note don't expect everyone else around the site to agree with you an your knowledge either(you have to prove it like everyone else does) My intentions were not to make you look bad an if thats the way you feel I'm sorry, and if you feel I jumped the gun then it's only because I might of misread your post concerning high octane an the 800,but thats how this topic got started in the thread in the first place.
