It's what I've always used in my 2smokes in the UK and swear by it. Mind you, with shipping it works out at nearly $50 per litre :x

The experts all agree running AV gas in powersports applications is a no-no. AV gas is very "dry" and doesnt have adequate lubrication properties like conventional race fuels such as VP, CAM II and Sunoco...
VP C12 or CAM II is the best all around race fuel for high comp. 2 strokes.

Polar-Bus is right on this, think about the altitude airplains run at. at these altitudes the oxygen is very limited, so they oxygenate the fuel to make the engine run more lean.
a lean motorcycle engine doesnt last very long.
