Well I see no one responded :o so let me see if I remember what I have read in the past. MR9 is usually offered at the track. The once that I remember using it had extensive mods. Several have dynotuned with it and stated a few extra hp #'s. I personally have not used it nor do I directly know anyone that has. If the bike is stock I would guess that it can't help that much since a lot people say use the lowest octane without pinging to get the best performance. If you have gone into the motor consult your builder.

This probably isn't what you were looking for so I hope you find your answer from a better source.

MR9 is 87 octane race fuel. It's good for 6 or 8 HP in anything. It's oxigenated fuel so it helps anything. DON'T leave it in your tank it will fuck up the fuel pump.

I tried it in my bike a while back when it still had the stock exhaust with the cat removed...It picked up almost a tenth and a half in the 1/4. :shock:
Like Gunner said don't leave in the bike to long... It'll about knock you out if you get a good whiff of it :roll:

I picked my cr 450 up almost a half second off my fastest time at our local circle track, so i agree on the 6-8 hp,

Just came back from a dyno shoot out and won king of the hill by running MR9 which gave me 9.1Hp gains over a run hours before with no other mods..
Ended up with 172.8HP :twisted:

MR9

MR9 FUEL IS GOOD IF YOUR BIKE IS TUNED FOR IT, BUT DON'T RUN IT WITH NOS OR YOU'LL GO B-O-O-M
MY SHOP IS WAITING ON OUR ORDER NOW FROM VP, THEY TOLD ME TO RUN THE C12 IN A NOS APPLICATION SO AS SOON AS I GET IT HERE I'LL POST UP SOME PUMP/ VS. RACE GAS DYNO RUNS.
