Recommended Posts

I read in my service manual that 95 Ron and above is to be used for my Suzuki GSX750F - However, Im such a fussy one that I dont want to put it in until I ask here! lol!


Would it be okay to run my bike on 98 Ron or similar fuel? As I want to run it once or twice in a blue moon as I heard it have added cleaning additives


Thanks :)

yes you can.


The manual specifies the lowest RON Rating for a fuel (RON is an indication of a fuels resitance to pre-ignition, i.e. ignighting during the compression stroke of an engine before being triggered by the spark). Therfore any fuel of higher RON rating will be safe.


If you were to run a lower RON rated fuel you may get pre-ignition or 'pinking' (old fuels 2,3,4 star etc used have RON ratings of 85 and above).


Do a search on here for fuel, or search my posts for fuel and you will soon come up with some good gen!
