    Most models over 50cc belonging to the Piaggio group are compatible with E10 from 1.1.2011 onwards.
    Piaggio does not recommend use of E10 on Mopeds (i.e. 50cc) currently in production.
    A full list of E10 compatible Piaggio models will be published soon on :-

    Pretty much anything with a carb.Think they say it eats rubber/seals but no issues so far

    Worst case scenario I’ll buy super unleaded!

    I've already looked:D

    Basically it's homebrew............or MOONSHINE:p:p:p:p
    Take barley/corn/wheat, refine it to minimum 150% proof (preferably 190% proof) using the same methods used for making your own
    home-made wine, and it'll run any internal combustion engine.
    Filter any bits/impurities out through a coffee filter before putting it in the tank

    Just don't do it in the house...........
