Thanks. I live in South Florida, so I usually don't go very long without riding the bike, but I have some vehicles up north at a cabin that can go a long time without being used. I've been using fuel stabilizer in those, but will reconsider.

I don't recommend living anywhere that you have to put your hog in storage mode! Just seems plain mean to me!

I have been using MMO. Marvel Mystery Oil. Just 2 oz. in a 5 gallon tank. I don't use it all the time. Just maybe every other fill up, but it sure makes for quicker starting. This stuff is great for air cooled engines.

Understand that Stabil has introduced a stabilizer to address the negative effects of ethanol. Not sure what has changed from the original but I haven't seen any negative effects from the use of the original formula either.

Is this stuff just a waste of money?
Uh...I think you answered your own question.

Fitch Fuel Catalyst is what I put in everything. I first put it in my 2003 ultra in 2003 with no fuel problems to date. I have it in chainsaws, lawn mowers, diesel tractor, Silverado pu truck , gas & diesel storage containers etc. You just put the enclosed capsule in the tank one time & it's good for life.

I've had trouble with Stabil gelling up on some boat motors I winterize for a couple of friends every year, I only use Sea Foam now.
