No point in running with it unless you have the bike set up with advanced egnition timing in which case you will probably have to use it to prevent pre-igniting of the fuel and causing damage to your engine.
If you are running on standard timing then there is no advatage to it and you are just wasting your money. What you may find if you use it on standard setup is that your engine could develop slightly LESS power!

I'll second that. My bike always feels a little better,crisper at bottom end with super in it but top end speed (power) is lacking compaired to regular.
Not only that, the cost for a tank of fuel compaired to what you get just ain't worth it..
thats why Ive gone out bought an ignition advancer,twiddled the TPS, dyno'ed the carbs, changed the rear sprocket ,twidddled the suspension,and changed various bits of plastic.
And all because a Guy Buy's Regular
