as far as race gas its not worth running in either, sometimes at track days if i would run out of fuel or forget to bring some i'd buy race gas and it never caused me any problems but its not going to give you any benefit
Im with him.^^

I have a Carburated bike, and its alittle harder to start as opposed to your EFI bikes, but to me throttle response is quicker in a Carburated bike. Like when its realy cold, i have to choke my bike so it will warm up but besides that it runs GREAT
