Well, FWIW, I have been keeping a spreadsheet of fuel used/distance covered for my Striple since I got it.

In this, and other threads, I have said that my previous 600 Hornet would actually go further on a tank of fuel if Premium, 98 octane, was used.

I can now be fairly positive that this is not true for the Striple.

There was no appreciable difference in fuel consumption, from 91 octane ULP, to 98 octane Premium. (Caltex Vortex 98) Nor was there any other noticeable change in performance.

I would expect this to be true for all of the east coast of Australia, as for other places, dunno.... probably.
