Just a quick note here.
Internal combustion engines require 3 things, Fuel, Spark and Compression.
When one of these is missing they won't go, but also when one of these is poor, it'll show up in different ways.
Crumpy, you say the bike started missing etc.
Good fuel with a lower octane will not alone normally cause an engine to miss.
It could be that a higher octane fuel is masking another problem, like poor spark for example.
Just to be on the safe side, I would check the battery voltage and the charge rate, and when were the plugs changed last.
Just my thoughts but may be worth checking while your having a look.
