I had a similar problem right after getting fuel. My riding buddy, a diesel expert, thought that I had either picked up some water or tiny grit. The injector hole is so tiny that neither water or grit will pass. We were on a backroads trip so draining the tank was not a reasonable option. A hefty dose of HEAT (basically alcohol) helped put the water back into suspension and after running about 5 gallons of fuel through the bike all was well. I did change the external fuel filter. Later I got the sock type filter for use on trips where the fuel is suspect. The RX3 cap does not allow a permanently installed filter at the fill point.
