Have run it 50/50 mix with low octane pump gas, not sure it's worth doing though but I use same gas in my YZ465 to prevent pinking

To answer the question, the limited use I have had with it, there was no jetting changes required.

I was running my RM250 on 80/20 avgas (i was working at AS airport and had refueler mate who looked after me  ;))

From memory i needed to change the main jet down quite a few sizes, i was nearly tempted to run on straight avgas as the bike ran so well. Gave a perfect chocolate colour plug.

I just spoke to our oils rep, he can get BP100 racing fuel for me @ $600 + GST for 200lt...Anyone interested in spliting a drum?
The amount I ride that will last me 2 years!
