What octane do you guys yse?

I will say that when I first bought my Busa, I assumed that 93 was what my baby needed. After reading all of the information on here, I changed to 87. Haven't noticed a single bit of lacking performance from her. I will also add that my fan kicks on less so the theory of the bike running cooler seems to work. I say try all three and make your own decision on how "your" bike performs...
 
i have used 93 since i bought the bike ('05 red/black), maybe it is just what she is used to but i tried 87 once and could tell a definite difference in how she handled vesus the bikes i was riding with, she was still the fastest bike i have ever owned but seemed to take more effort to pull away from the others
 
I've noticed the bike already was running hot when I first rode it. I got it from the dealer and it had a little less than 1/2 tank in it. Maybe the dealer put 93 in? I don't know. Today I pumped in some 87 and the needle was in the red and almost empty... so right now it should be all filled up with 87. I'll see how hot it gets, now... But my black 06 is already pure hotness just parked in my garage!

After I filled it up I was at a stoplight (in front) and I just watched how people gave my bike looks... was great! And at the mall parking lot I came up the the crosswalk, creeping in 1st, and then stopped to let a woman cross. A hot chick was next and I nodded for her to go ahead and cross but she smiled at me and waved me on... so I went on ahead. haha!
