most of us run unleaded gas. some run premium unleaded gas. a few use lead additives or substitutes.
two cl77, three cb77, ca77, ca72, cb160, s65 and cb750

I run 95-octane (basic) unleaded with no additive, no timing alterations and no problems.

Hi,

I run RON 98 for my CB72, because of the higher compression.
My C77 runs on RON 95, both unleaded, no problems.

i really don't know if it's needed or not , but i use a little lead substitute each time i put gas in my CA77. it's made by Gunk and a 12 once bottle will treat 20 gallons of gas. it's part #M50-12 and costs $3.49 at my local O'Reilly Auto Parts

seams like cheap insurance
