i've never had a problem w/ 87. i used to run it all the time on the f3, never once had a gas issue... cept for the couple times i ran out.
Since buying the rr i've only used 87 a couple times, with no ill effects, but most of the time i'll pay a little more for the better gas. I'm thinking that bad gas coupled with tank sitting for a while may have put some crud in the injectors or backed up the fuel filter.
But to be honest, im really banking on this electrical issue, it just seems like it would explain everything. i lost power mid ride the throttle would cut like it did, and when it came back on the oil light would come back on like it does when the bike is turned on. i wish i would have set my clock earlier to see if the time on that would have changed as well.
