It is possible, especially if the ethanol laced gas contains water, that it will cause corrosion. The only way to assure that the gas is least likely to have water is purchase a top brand from a station that sells volume. A station that does little business has more time for moisture laden air to enter their tanks, condense, and cause both rust and water to be sucked up and wind up in your carbs, regardless of the quality.

I'm wondering how old your bike has to be before it has these problems. Is the 91-03 Nighthawk 750 affected? I've noticed a greater difficulty starting lately and a surging at low RPM which clears up at normal speeds. My bike now has 77M miles on it and I'm wondering if years of 10% ethanol gas may be causing deterioration inside the carbs.
