[Ducati] Re: Regular VS. Premium

[Brian Adrian]

    Regular gas gives better performance than premium. Unless you are  
running real high compression and your engine knocks with regular,  
you are just wasting money and getting less performance with premium.  
And regular will not "crud up" your carbs.
