Bad gas?

I concur with this 1000%. higher octane doesnt=higher performance or better power output in a bike unless you've got a turbo or your bike specifies you need premium. I run regular 87 unleaded in my cage, my bike, and everything I own without a single issue.

premium wont give a bike more power, clean it out, etc. in a bike that specifies regular unleaded is what you need, you're really just burning money and not much else honestly.
