Pinging??
Has anyone noticed more pinging lately with 93 octane fuel? I filled up this morning with Chevron 93 octane and my bike started pinging when twisting the throttle moderately. My son told me that the ethanol they are blending into the gasoline is causing the abnormal pinging. He said he is having the same problem with the Chevron gas in his Vulcan 900 Classic LT. He said he switched to the Exxon 93 and all is well. I have the stock air intake with de-baffled stock pipes. I think a good cure may be a TFI. Do you guys agree?
