I have a honda airblade with a carb, not FI. I used G91 all the time and then it just stopped on me. I had to replace the corroded parts in the fuel system for about 1500Baht. The guy told my i should use only benzene but i still use G91. Dont have much choice.

I find benzene and refuse to patronize any sation that does not sell it. NO gasahol for my bike! Alcohol is for men; benzene for bikes.

the best fuel around ive tried (performance wise) is caltex gold benzine 95

going from PTT gasohol 91 to caltex benzine 95 is like putting a turbo in yr bike

its just a bit expensive if you drive a lot (around 51 thb per litre )

Yep, you are right. I put everything in my bikes as long as it is benzine

Gasohol is a good thing for the thai economy, not for my bikes which both have a carb. Both (Yamaha Nouvo and Tiger Boxer) are declared to be able running with gasohol. But both get broken on the long term or refuse to run at all with gasohol. Maybe this is different if you do many kilometers every day on the bike like a bike taxi. But as fas as i know most thai use benzine too. And many mechanics (even Yamaha and Tiger mechanics) have warned me better to not use gasohol.
