I have a motorcycle.  I prefer to use high-octane fuel for it.
Unfortunately, most gas stations' high-octane fuel is also unleaded.
(Union 76 stations do sell leaded premium, but they are the only
dealer I know of that does).

Can I use unleaded fuel in my motorcycle, then?  Already I have gotten
two responses to this:
	"Sure, it doesn't matter."
	"Yes, but you should use an oil labeled `SAE-SF'..."

So, in confusion, I submit my question to the net.  (This question
should also be applied to internal-combustion engines generally).

(Please do not bother explaining catalytic converters as that is not
 the question I am asking).
