Default KTM Factory Services Motor 250f

Hey everyone, I'm new to the KTM world.

I just bought a 2010 250f with the KTM factory tuning kit. He had the motor sent in to get the "factory services" done to the bike. Has everything from the KTM power parts catalog. I'm really looking to find out what fuel I should use. If I can use basic 110 or if I need some special fuel. The fuel that was run in it was twenty some dollars a gallon. I want to shy away from that if I can.

Any help would be great. Thanks. Picture of the bike is attached for your drooling pleasure

If you have the hi compression piston, you really should not run 91 pump gas.

110 is that aviation gas?

I know this bike canot run on 91 or 93 "premium" pump gas. The gas station I go to has Rocket Brand Race fuel that is 110 octane. I have used it for my snocross racing sled for years and works great. Hoping it will work in my new bike as well.

It is not av gas

When I was racing my XR650r with the high compression (13:1) piston
and the hop up kit in the desert, I'd run VP 110, which was actually 107 octane.
