Many bikes will run fine on regular fuel. If you've got anything high performance, or moderate performance and air cooled, run super. It's mostly about knock resistance - modern sports bikes have very high compression and it hates shit fuel. A lot of them will adjust timing and all sorts if they detect any pre-ignition, etc. They will run on regular but they won't be delivering the full fat experience...
