Well on my usual weekly fill-up, my local Mobile station was out of standard and mid grade gas (I like the Fast Pass they offer as I don't have to use a debit card at the pump having been skimmed that way once before), so I decided to fill up with Premium. What the heck, it's only 3.5 gallons, so the price is negligible.
So, maybe it's my imagination or the weather, but it seems my 07 1250 runs smoother on Premium. Start-up idle this morning seemed to stabilize quicker and the bike just seems a bit "friskier" than on regular. Not enough so I would switch over on a regular basis, but subjectively feels better.
Anyone else try it and notice a difference? My bike's fairly stock with the exception of a Power Commander III and a Yoshimura exhaust that were on the bike when I got it. Maybe it had been tuned for higher octane?
