hopefully you use unleaded, in the uk we have 95RON which is pretty much standard fuel here for cars, or theres 97RON known as super unleaded. Personally i find mine runs better with 97RON unleaded, but i dont know what fuel they have from where you are.

Unleaded engines can run on both leaded (or 4 star as it used to be called) and unleaded fuel as far as i aware, so you should be fine with what your running already. :)

they can but ots always best to use unleaded in unleaded engine if possible.

however, never put unleaded into a leaded (is leaded even a real word lol) engine.

It seems so

http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/leaded

Im sure cargo said every now and then he puts lead additive in his race bike fuel to treat the valves or something

edit

yes he did

There is no need for any additives with unleaded fuel. The ZXR is designed to use unleaded fuel.

Just out of interest where are you from?
