We have been informed that 10% ethanol will be used from Feburary in the UK as the standard fuel, possibly a 5% alternative available (at a premium).
I cannot really find any info other than this from the Shell Australia site which makes for pretty shocking reading.

From this it states that ALL models/years of Yamaha, Kawasaki, Honda and Suzuki are not compatible with 10% fuel, along with various car makes and models.
This really needs to be brought to the attention of the public as it is all pretty hush at the moment!! I will be getting my handbooks out to see what the manufactuers say on the modern vehicles. Unfortunately BSA, Triumph, Norton and Royal Enfield didn’t have a great deal to say on the matter!
