Found a Sunoco station with ultra 93. Filled a gas can, went home and topped the tank off. Back to normal. Thanks all.

Glad you solved your problem, although you really didn't have one. Comfort zone is important when on 2 wheels so you took care of that.

Glad things worked out for you.
I have only ran premium in mine since day one, but may try some regular sometime just out of curiosity. On a trip in my 'Vette once, all I could find was regular, tried half a tank, very little difference. Hey, sometimes ya got to do what ya got to do!
