Leaded Fuel?

Leaded Fuel?

Thor Purinton said 2008-02-05 05:01

I recently bought a ´69 cb175, it´s the first older bike I´ve owned (though she still looks good!), and I´m wondering if I need to run her on leaded fuel (lead additive), or if regular gas is ok. I´ve heard that the lead content lubricates the valves against the seats, which sort of makes sense, but I´m out of my scope of knowledge... Any thoughts on this are welcome.
