Talked with a technician at VP Fuels, and he says for a vintage
motorcycle use C-12. It is non-oxygenated and leaded. I found it
at Smileys Racing @ 10.95 per gallon. I was told it can be stored
in any type container in a cool place, for a reasonable length of time.

Lloyd your right. I just didn't think you would need something with 108 octane rating. Even at the high cost if your just using it to compete it would go a long way in most applications.

Man I miss the old days in Texas and Oklahoma, when you could stop at a SUNOCO and dial the octane you wanted.

Yeah, a little SUNOCO 260 and you're on your way!

I work on small engines from time to time and have seen strange things that I believe are related to E10 fuels. Instead of debating about the effects of CORN fuel! I will give you the website that tells you what stations in what states sell E0 or non oxygenated fuel. pure-gas.org If you want to buy a new leaf blower every few years keep using the CORN!

Gavin, Thanks for the website! It is sad and frustrating that in my part of Texas, there is not a station that has "good gas" within a 100 miles..At least, none is listed.
