SP95E10 at a Total in Laon - smells weird, don't it? SP95 in a supermarket in Bitche SP95 at an Esso on Chalon en Champagne SP95 on autoroute near B�thune. In Austria & CH the fuel was labelled as 95RON, bleifrei or super. None of it smelt funny so I'm assuming it was all regular fuel. -- wessie at tesco dot net BMW R1150GS

Oh, and while you're there - I never thanked you properly for the beer. One of the 6Xs has just gone down very nicely, TYVM.
