Some say use Esso E5 if you don’t use the bike very often as the Esso is claimed to have the least or zero ethanol content!?

My favourite is Shell V-Power as it seems to work best in my particular XB and hang the expense. I now use nothing else. I also use a bit of fuel stabiliser if I think the Buell will be stood unused for a long period.
