As far as I know its standard compression, it did run fine on leaded gas with the same octane rating. Might need hotter plugs to burn off residue from combustion, as I have mentioned I do not think unleaded combusts properly like leaded gas as there is a oily residue left in tail pipe.

Hi Peter, I am running standard plugs and they run fine on leaded gas, I have found unleaded petrol does not fully combust in any engine leaving a oily coating in the tail pipe.

My SS runs like a 2 stroke on unleaded, fouls plugs alot, so I have to buy expensive race gas to run it. I have had it tuned by professional mechanics who I trust. Anyone else have this problem or is it just me?

You aussies think you have bad roads? Come ride over here, NZ, and you will go home with square wheels HA HA.
Less than 3000 KM a year Peter? You gotta get out more matey. Life is to short to sit back and watch.
Been running Shell HD 50 in the 900ss for a while now and it loves it. Its made ...

What a stunner. Look after her, change the oil every 2000 km (cheap insurance for the crank) and she will love you.
Nice one mate.

Great info Craig. It was a real pleasure to see and hear Mikes NCR, Alan Cathcart rode round the track, what a machine. Its such a shame Mike was taken from us so long ago but im sure he would be happy to know his NCR lives on and we will never forget his legendary deeds.
