    You are a life saver. I know it’s silly but I have wicked bad anxiety and have been literally paying my boss to fill my 50cc scooter. I just needed to watch the process once to get a grasp on it.

    It's worth mentioning that different countries measure octane differently. They'll say on the pump what method they use, USA is R+M /2. Your owner's manual will tell what rating it needs as well as how they measure it. Chances are if you need premium here premium somewhere else is good if they use a different system, don't just rely on the number or you may get messed up.

    Thanks, this helped a lot! I'm new to bikes so never fueled up before. Was on my reserve of 10 litre tank but only filling up by 3 or 4 litres. I knew i was doing something wrong! I'll go do the manual filling bit now;)

      its a little line in the fuel tank dont go over that line i went over that line made a hell of a mess think of the pump like a break on your bike on a rainy day dont just squeeze it down be gentle thats the only way i can describe it the pump is so sensitive. luckily for me it was the early hours of the morning nobody was a round i did go into the shop and said i would clean the mess up they told me it was fine and was really understanding

      pro-tip: don't take your gas cap off when it's been sitting in the sun for it to get hot enough to do that in a gas station parking lot where you filled it at about an hour ago
      pro-tip: don't take your gas cap off ever unless you're getting gas or removing the gas tank

    I experience no difference between regular fuel and premium...If you performance ride a lot maybe better use high octane. I have a hinged cap...so I don't have to put my cap on a dirty and dusty gas pump...be aware the dirt ends up in your tank. Better to put the cap somewhere else or put it somewhere on the bike while gassing that keeps it from contaminating your fuel.

    • @Akira-kd6us
      @Akira-kd6us 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Higher octane is nothing but a waste of money when your engine isn’t built for it to begin with. In general using high octane won’t give you any advantage or disadvantage in terms of performance on low powered/compression engine. Not true for the opposite however, could damage high performance engine if you fill it up with low octane fuel.

    Notice that in Europe there is no such bad quality gas like in US. Minimum is 95, Premium is 98.

    • @pradiptajw
      @pradiptajw 8 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      The US uses AKI (Anti Knock Index) that is RON (Research Octane Number) + MON (Motor Octane Number) divided by 2, in europe we use RON, so AKI 87 = RON 92, AKI 89 = 94-95, and AKI 91 = 98,and some petrol stations in USA sells AKI 93 = RON 98..............................=)))

      No... I can't speak for other countries but at most pumps here in the U.S. if you use a credit/debit card you put the card in, put in PIN if applicable, etc. then the display will reset to all zeros and you can begin pumping. The charge will show up on whatever card you used a day or two later.
