For us Uhhmericans, is benzene the same as gasoline, or does it only go into Benzes?

Hey, I didn't know gasohol was even cheaper than 91 octane. But even with 10.5:1 comression ratio, my Honda CBR150RRRRRRRR only needs 91 octane, according to the Thai owner's manual. When I bought it, the CBR was only a 150R, but for every additional R I add to it, I get 0.04 more horsepower.
