Default bad gas OR??

Last week I experienced either rough idling and no idling waiting at a red light after a mile from my house. Headed back home, ran fine until I stopped. Would not idle. Started again, seemed to idle properly. I said screw it, headed to my original destination, after 15 mins, got there and bike would not idle again. After an hour or so, went back home and bike has been normal ever since. Did I have some condensation in my tank and found it's way out? Looked in my service manual for any valves that may stick and cause a problem but didn't find anything, other than the check valve in the fuel supply line, or worse, the fuel filter, fuel sending unit?

I use Shell gas. Only thing I did was run down pretty low because I was checking gas mileage...
