Pertalite is the most popular and cheapest fuel in Indonesia with a low octane number (90), meant for low-income groups. It is unsuitable for modern engines.
Why is Pertalite a poor choice?
• Can cause engine fouling
• Increased fuel consumption
• Decreases engine power and lifespan
✅ Manufacturers like Honda and Yamaha recommend an octane number of 91+ (i.e., Pertamax and above).
For example:
🔹 Honda PCX (160cc) - not below 93 (Pertamax Plus or Pertamax Turbo)
🔹 Yamaha (160cc+) - 91+, at least Pertamax
🔥 Pertamax is pricier, but more cost-effective!
✔️ Clean fuel combustion, engine operates more steadily
✔️ More fuel-efficient - reduced consumption per km
✔️ Prolongs the bike's lifespan
🏍 Balimotion company advises using Pertamax or higher fuel for bikes. This ensures reliable and functional transportation for our customers, without any surprises.
The rented bike will be delivered to you with a tank that is at least half full with the right fuel. This spares you the need to immediately find a nearby gas station when the fuel indicator blinks. Instead, you can dive straight into your adventures! 😉
