89 octane, Biobor, and Ring Free everytime I get gas. 2018 ZX250 that will hit 73 if I work at it, but runs 70 consistently with tournament load. I have around 300 hours on my motor and have never had a hiccup.

I have 25 T1 prop currently but just bought a new prop from Lake Linear Prop in Georgia. Andrew knows the science of it all. I’ll let you know what speeds I get when I get it in.

Wait a minute, you spent $700 on a new prop but not 15 cents a gallon on fuel? Shoulda tried that first.

I went from a 2 stroke where I was told to only use regular and was just told by my dealer after owning the new Sho that I should have been using 89. Wish they would have told me that before I drove off the lot but my fault for not asking. I have 25 T1 prop currently but just bought a new prop from Lake Linear Prop in Georgia. Andrew knows the science of it all. I’ll let you know what speeds I get when I get it in.

I did this too for hole shot. 25T-1 in summer & 27m in winter.

I've run both in my 2016 FX21LE for the last 3.5 years and really don't see a big difference, Heck I don't even put ring free in LOL, but then again I'm not speed demon when i'm on the water. I just want to get from A-B.
