Default Seafoam, correct usage...???

Whats the best way to run it through my bike??
GAs, carbs, oil .. crankcase etc?

in my old sportbike.. i put some in the tank...

and pulled a vacuum hose and pulled a few ounces in that way....

Is there a protocol, or a route i should follow to not hurt anything?

I have a 2000 Softail Deuce if that matters..

I only run it in the tank of the bike. I have not felt the need to run it in the engine oil as of yet. I do run it in the oil of the car before an oil change (about 5-10 miles). DO NOT put in the tranny.. Lost a tranny that way as it cleaned everything very nicely and dumped dirt into a needle bearing and.. well... that caused issues! Worked to well. Sea Foam is some great stuff. I have a gallon around at all times!
