Good point, Bob. I think what 'busman' really wanted to know was if he needed to add an LRA of some sort to the unleaded fuel now universally dispensed at the pumps. The answer is of course that he need not.

Incidentally, many years ago, I asked a similar question apropos a 1960s 2T moped when U/L first came out. In fact, practical experience went on to show that the bike ran much better on it, with much reduced plug 'whiskering', than it did on leaded. I'm not sure that it would have liked the modern ethanol based fuels quite so much, though! Funny old world, isn't it?

Regards, John.
