Default SeaFoam

Read several post on this and was wondering how often everyone who uses it put it in their tank. Today's gas has alot of water in it and sitting all winter can gum up the system.

I usually don't let my bike sit for more than a week or two (weather permitting) so I don't add anything to my tank.

However, my for my lawn and garden implements of destruction (and gas cans) I use Sta-Bil. Just add it per the instructions. Never had a problem with gunky gas.

I avoid additives. Did you know gas dry already has about 10% water in it.

I'm like wildwill I don't let my bike sit. I put 5,000 miles on my 06 during the winter months. Going to put 1500 to 2000 more miles next week.


My mind is in Florida waiting for my body to get there!

Cran, I,m like Wildwill, but I live in southern La. so I ride alot. I do use SeaFoam in my bass boat gas tanks, because sometimes I don't know when I'm Going fishing and like you've read is cleans and is a gas stabilizer. It canbe used in gasoline or diesel fuels also.

I'm jealous becuase our riding season in Iowa is shorter. It can sit a month or 2 without being driven. This year is an exception. Been able to at least drive around the neighborhood a little each month. Thanks for the input folks!
