I was going to give a big thumbs up to the 89 octane pure gas I got 3 weeks ago. I sold my car two weeks ago and have been riding the bikes exclusively.

The fuel mileage on both bikes went up considerably, but we also have had extremely warm weather here with temps in the 80s last two days, an new record yesterday.

It would be hard to give any exact amount but the increase was in the neighborhood of 10%. I should get my 2011 Fiesta next week, the DMV is dragging their arse again, even though it is costing them hundreds of dollars in taxes.

But then their procrastination has meant I used 10 gallons of gas to cover 733 miles. The weather has been most cooperative.
