Unleaded
« on: May 29, 2012, 09:49:34 AM »
Jap bikes from the mid 70's are supposed to run uk on unleaded without adjustment or modification; depending on who you speak too of course.

I remember when we were running new Jap 4's etc in the 70's; the dealers told use to use 2 star.

My 750K7 and LC both run fine on bog standard unleaded. The LC tank has remained ok but the K7 tank did corrode internaly.

Now; I've been told that 2T's shouldn't be ran on unleaded because they overheat; yet mine and others are fine. Also a 750F2 apparantly runs better on super unleaded. His explination for this is that the F2 has 70 odd horeses as opposed to the F1 and K series 67; I draw my own conclusion to that.

Whadda you guys think?????
