Premium gas is for high performance, high compression engines.... it has an additive to reduce engine knock... This added stuff,... means less actual combustible fuel... Not a lot, but some... This means less power per gallon, and fewer miles per gallon... If your vehicle is not high performance, high compression,... it will not increase power or mileage... Mid-grade gas,... is just a mix of premium and regular... Most stations only have two tanks... not three... mid-grade is a blend... Regular gas has the most combustible fuel in it... and gives the most power and mileage per gallon...
If "gunk" is in fuel from the pump,... it is likely from the tanks.... and the one with the least circulation will gather the most sediments... If,... for some reason, more people buy premium than regular,... or even more mid-grade, it will have less sediments... Since most modern vehicles use regular, it usually has the most use, and should have the least contaminants...
Our bikes are low compression, torquey, thumpers... and will run best on the most commonly used fuel... Regular... Adding anti-knock to an engine that don't knock is like diluting your gas... less performance, and less mileage... Probably not much,... but why pay extra to get less?... ... and usually.... premium gas tanks get used and filled less often at the gas station...
No matter what you think of your own personal Savage,... road eater that it is,... it ain't a rocket, and it don't need or want, rocket fuel...
