That is a common misconception...I have been running it in my bike for over a year with no problems, the only real time that it will cause any problems is if it sits for a long time it can clog up injectors.

Watch out with running it without a tune, E85 requires about 30% more fuel than 91 at the same power levels so you can run lean without properly tuning for it, running just a little you should be ok but seems a little sketchy to me personally..During the winter most gas stations that sell E85 actually switch to E70 for easier startup on cold days...just my $.02
