Unleaded in Estonia, Latvia & Lithuania?

[Gav]

Can anyone confirm if these have unleaded and are therefore O.K. for a cat?

Dear gav,

Having been out to both Latvia and more regularly Estonia, I can confirm that both these countries have filler stations like here with 95 and 98 octane fuel. I have never ridden there yet, but I doubt you'll have a problem.. My advise would be to fill-up in the larger towns, just to be sure. You could cross Estonia on a tank full anyway.

eitherway, based on the fact the you often see Mercs Beemer and Porsche in the cities, I'm sure they would come off worse than a bike if running on crap fuel...

Hope that helps.

Thanks Dark Horse,

It wasn't so much the octane level or quality of fuel but whether it was unleaded and therefore suitable for a cat. Latvia might be my biggest concern.

Whilst we're on the subject, you don't need a visa either do you? I've got one book that says I do!

Choose Latvia from the pull-down menu towards the bottom of the page.

British nationals do not require a visa for stays of up to three months.
