    S10 picky about its fuel

    here in the uk, if i fill my bike up at asda super market it feels unresponsive on the throttle and sluggish. if i fill up at tesco with the premium fuel she absolutely flies and i can feel the power difference in a big way. so it definately makes a huge difference to mine.
