What type of gas do you use?

I usually use Valero, Exxon and Hess. I try to stay away from Shell at all cost.
 
Top tier gas.......

Here's some of an article from Motor Cyclist mag.

"So which number should you go with? Whatever your bike's manufacturer calls for. But a higher-octane gas is better, right? No, at least not in terms of power or throttle response. A higher octane rating by itself does not increase engine power (unless it prevents detonation).
If an engine does not experience detonation 87-octane fuel, it won't make more power or run any better on 91.

But as far as keeping your engine clean, premium gas has "the highest concentration of the good stuff(additives)". Macias say's of "top-tier premium gases. "It has 5 times the cleaning agents required by the EPA". The idea here is that an engine engineered to run on high-octane gas is likely built to a higher state of tune, so internal cleanliness is essential for proper performance. So if you frequent the quickie mart for discount gas, the occasional tank of premium top tier station may do your engine some good.

Additives are added to the truck(tanker) at the trucks pick-up depot at the amounts prescribed by each name brand company."
