Also worth noting is that Ethanol isn't particularly friendly to your bike, especially when you leave it in there for protracted periods of time. Some brands of Super Unleaded used to be Ethanol free but I think they all pretty much have 5% now, although maybe Shell and BP Ultimate might still be holding out (I gave up trying to avoid Ethanol eventually and now just use additives as has been discussed).
