I have experienced a lot of bad issues with E10, in both cars and bikes. But there is no point in testing it, it is the only stuff available in my state, and you have to use it. I watch the pumps, and make sure it says 10%, but you never really know for sure. And it can vary from time to time at the same pump. Until someone steps up and puts a stop to this crap, we'll just have to deal with it.
I can get high octane leaded racing gas at the local dragstrip, but at almost $8 a gallon it is too expensive to use, and what about refilling on trips. I can also get avgas, but it has the same issues. State law prevents selling anything else at regular gas stations.
And for owners of diesel vehicles, they don't have it so good either, and that includes big rigs. All you can get anymore is that "low sulfur" crap, which doesn't damage anything, but makes less power while cutting mileage substantially. That raises the prices of everything transported by truck, because it costs truckers more to ship it. Again, everybody loses.
