87 Octane at the Shell in Montgomery Village. Even with commuting & traffic jams I'm still able to get time on the open highway (evenings) and twisties. Next it's time to clean & lube the chain.

Shell in Montgomery Village. This was after my first tank of 87 octane so this will make tank number two. I had just gotten out of a traffic jam otherwise the MPG would be higher. I'm still commuting although (sadly) my tank was mostly city/highway commuting. There wasn't too much time with the twisties, but that's to be expected. (edit: I made a correction on the amount of fuel put in the tank - subtracting what went in by 1/10th)

After consulting with a fellow rider of an 800S7 I'm switching to regular test for the next 3 tankfuls to see if there's any difference in performace or MPG. I had originally planned to stick with high test + Turbo 108 based on my long term experience with Charlotte - my 1986 VF500F - but I'm going with regular fuel for now. I do still plan on treating her to a tank of Street Legal Racing Fuel (SLRF) every 5 tanks or so, but other than that I want to see how the regular stuff goes. She's at 705 miles after this morning's commute, and I suspect she's getting somewhat broken in. She's already better on fuel at this point than she was on the last two tankfulls (SLRF was the worst but I did run a higher RPM) but that could also be due to my adjustment for traffic. Lastly I think the floater in my tank is a tad off. I've noticed that the tank flashes on the last bar when it's nearly empty - if you call 1 gallon left empty. For a 5.8 gallon tank with a listed .8 reserve (included in the 5.8) I guess I'd rather have it read shallow than give a false sense of security.

First regular fuel up. This was at Exxon (boo!) and the previous tank was sadly mostly used to commute. I did get some time on the twisties though! I added Turbo 108 Octane boost as soon as I got home.
