Default BadGas help for us

I picked-up some StarTron gas additive to combat the corn gas we have to use.
Unbelievable product made for our help. My EG hasn't run this good for awhile.
Seat of the pants better with-in minutes.
It will be in every tank I buy until I'm not riding.

I've heard advertisements about StarTron. I have wondered about how well it works, and if there are any negative issues with switching from E-10 to E-10 with StarTron. Glad to hear that you like it. Might have to pick some up this weekend.

Rode it for 200 miles yesterday and helped my mileage by 2 mpg.
Love this stuff, my bike ran soo good!
I went back to Costco and bought 5 more bottles.

What's your cost for a gallon of gas, plus a bottle of magictron for 2 mpg?. I'd bet just changing brands of gas would get you the same results.,,

Probably about what you pay + 1 oz of material per tank @ .90 per oz or about .15 cents per gallon.
I'm staying with Chevron 91, thank you. Have tried many other brands without a change.
I'm not doing this for mileage, just this rotten CORN gas with no self life and turns to sugar in about 4 weeks in my carb.
Done, find somebody else....I remember you!

The magic ingredient of Startron fuel additive is naptha 95% according to the MSDS sheet, and 5% proprietary ingredients what ever that is. If your bike sits for weeks on end unused you'd be better draining the gas out of it if it is causing problems .,,

Naptha is main ingredient in moth *****. We used to crush them and add 1 for every 10 gallons in cars back when we run gasahol. Probably cheaper too.
