Al, just curious how much you pour in your tank (as a maintenance item)?
Both bikes in my garage have 30k+ miles with nothing but 87 pump gas. One of them is 13 years old and I have yet to see any kind of detriment from gas. The other is 7 years old, same thing. I don't use any kind of fuel treatment. They sit for a lot of the winter, only starting up every couple of weeks and run at operating temp for 10 minutes or so to burn off water in the oil.

Follow the directions on the bottle. It's something like one ounce per gallon. One bottle should do something like 4-5 tanks of fuel.
