hi bro, use at least 98 unleaded petrol for yur bike. using lower grades affect yur bike performance. there is no best petrol company, just which company serve u better!! try all those companies, frm there u will find one that suits yur bike best!!
(for me its mobil and shell) |

For my KTM I pump 98 in SGP and 97 in Malaysia
For my Honda, I pump 95 in SGP and 97 in Malaysia
For 4-strokes (i dunno for 2-strokes), if you pump a lower octane petrol, then you get engine knocking, which means damage to your engine.
I read somewhere if you want to visit Countries where there is no high octane petrol, then you need to change the spark-timing or buy a CDI designed for low octane petrol.
