rekindling my youth I have just bought one of my first bikes ... is it OK to use unleaded petrol or will this cause damage to the engine? Thanks for your help
 
can not see why not its a two stroke so no valves to burn out that was the main problem with unleaded just use a good two stroke oil , + jap bikes were designed to run on crap petrol
 
Some people might tell you that old two strokes need lead for piston and ring lubrication, but that's just an old wives tale. It will probably run cleaner on unleaded.
