Default Choke down problem gone

It looks like my problem was bad gas. A 112 mile ride today, and the bike ran great. Flushed the system with a bottle of Amsoil Quickshot. 80 degrees, blue skies, great day to ride!

It begs the question though, what do you do when you're forced to buy a quick 1-2 gallon fuel up because you're on fumes, and you're only option is an old mom-and-pop gas station with bad gas? I can't be the only one this has happened to.
