Pump gas and 06 FS650e

I searched this forum but couldn't find what I was looking for....

I am new to bergs, but not bikes. The stated CR for the bike is 11.8:1 and while quite high, I feel it should run tolerably on premium pump gas in a street/play application. My SMC was fine on the pump stuff but I realize the berg motors are more highly tuned than the LC4s.

Can someone confirm the adequacy of pump gas and if it is not, is there any consensus on additives for pump gas...

I'd rather not get into an avgas debate :)

Cheers and thank you

Thanks for putting me at ease.

Now some idiots down under have converted a Berg to biodiesel, it works with some kind of leaf blower motor and gives about 10 horses when you pedal fast enough.

We appreciate the ozone-saving, ice cap-preserving, global warming-preventing effort and we're all warm and fuzzy about it.
 
Given my geographic location - I shamefully encourage global warming... :)
