Title: Hello from Utah Post by: ChrisVette on October 22, 2016, 03:09:51 AM New to motorcycles but decided my first bike should be my dream bike. (stupid [roll]). I'm 6'6", 230lbs so I still need to get the rear height adjusted a little but it is surprisingly comfortable even for my size.
2007 S2R 1000 Danmoto full titanium exhaust and various other little things.

Nice bike. Title: Re: Hello from Utah Post by: Curmudgeon on October 22, 2016, 12:00:23 PM Welcome!
Fill that tank with stabilized E-0 to prevent swelling. Seems you have enough in UT! http://www.pure-gas.org/index.jsp?stateprov=UT (http://www.pure-gas.org/index.jsp?stateprov=UT) Title: Re: Hello from Utah Post by: ChrisVette on October 22, 2016, 04:13:55 PM Thanks! Yeah I wouldn't say the tank is perfect but it is pretty close. The guy I bought it from told me about it. The problem is that we only have 88 octane.

I'd be one of those that know that 88 octane R+M/2 is plenty for a 1000. It's only a 10:1 compression ratio. Any more and you're wasting money and making carbon deposits.Ducati always has, and still does IMO, recommend far too high octane ratings. Start a thread in tech if you want to discuss it. Title: Re: Hello from Utah Post by: ChrisVette on October 23, 2016, 06:30:06 PM It runs fine and doesn't seem to lack power like my 300zx did on low octane fuel. I have no problem with it.
