Default Gas only or additives?

Does anybody put any product but premium gas in the hole?

I'm talking additives of any kind. I use to use 3 oz of Techron (comes in 12 0z bottles at Chevron) every 4 moinths in my Honda VTX. It kept the fuel system clean.

Wondering if it'll help in the Dyna.

I don't use anything. The newer fuels have plenty of additives, already......... That's my understanding anyway.

Hope some udders chime in

I don't use anything, either, based on the assumed knowledge that gas has enough cleaners in it already. My 2000 FI bike has 69k miles on it and has given me no trouble. BTW, I also do not use a certain brand of gas. I just get whatever is there when I need it.

I add nothing, worry to much about what it will do to the O2 sensors, and I don't have any problems running 92 octane gas so I don't fix what ain't broken.
