Title: E10 petrol - Which years ARE compatible
Post by: Meath.west.awake on June 14, 2025, 06:29:34 AM
Hi all, I just signed up as I wait to replace 1 of my 2 old bikes I sold. . .And a Suzuki GS500 is one of three bikes I,m aiming for.
I did see online that all suzuki bikes from 2002 onwards are ok with E10-petrol but the 10 or so years before that all I see stated is. . . .. . ."Some". . . .models are and some are not which is extremely unhelpful and Suzuki themselves havnt been any better. . So has anyone a definitive proof of which years GS between say 1992 and 2002 are ok with it. . . ..Honda, Yamaha and BMW are 100% clear on which of their bikes are E10 compatible and they are literally years ahead of Suzuki. .Any help on clearing this up much appreciated as I,ve seen a very low miles 1993 for sale and an ok 2001 for sale that I reckon I could get at a lower price than the 1993
