"All" is accurate.
At our home in indiana I have a gas powered chain saw, weed eater, leaf blower, zero turn Scag mower, Honda power washer, 2022 Polaris General SxS, and a 2023 Husky 125 mx bike. All are run on regular gas with no issues. All of these will sit unused for 6 months while we're here. No problems.
Btw, you can't buy non ethanol gas everywhere. They would never require it. And even if they did it would say so in the owners manual.
So please stop and lets put this urban legend to rest. NE gas is a gimmick, plain and simple. Ask any reputable power equipment dealer. As I said my stuff sits for months with no issues. Both my SxS and mx bike have very complex fuel injection systems.
