After you got gas, it ran fine?
After I filled it up with premium it started and ran fine day after. Now two days later I’m having this issue
Premium from reliable source? (no water?)
Premium from reliable source? (no water?)
Just in case it is not the battery ...
How cold was it overnight prior to your tank refill, and how warm did the bike get during that day prior to the refill? If the differential is enough, condensation could have formed prior to the refill.
In addition, premium gas does not guarantee low or no water - by no means. The way it typically works is all fuel is stored the same way for all grades underground (usually). Those storage tanks [always] contain water from the accumulation of condensation. When the water level in the storage tanks get to a certain level, the water has to be purged/withdrawn from the tanks. Good quality fuel services will do this religiously as part of their services to the station. If the station does not pay the premium, the check and/or service is less frequent. One more, but unrelated tidbit: All grades start with the same 87 octane base stock. Proprietary additives make-up the premium blends.
