Okay so just a stupid question here.... what exactly makes the Warrior so prone to pinging anyway?
My buddy has a Triumph Sprint and which runs 12.0:1 compression and he runs straight pump gas throughout the hot TX summers and doesn't have one single problem. And my V-Strom is 11.3:1 and again I run nothing but 87 in it all year round.
In no way am I saying that the pinging isn't there on the Warrior or isn't a real problem. I was just wondering why on other bikes with way higher compression it's not a problem. Is the the whole liquid cooling vs. air cooling? I know heat has quite a bit to do with it, but I didn't think this much.
