Best in fuel carb cleaner
I always use sea foam in small engines but is there a better option for the bike? She was running a little rough at idle yesterday think some fresh gas will help but figure a system cleaner can't hurt. Also can you mix seafoam and stabil in the same gas?

I love seafoam as well, mainly for regular maintenance. I work on all kinds of small engines and such and it seems the most common thing I see is a gummed up carb. What brand of soaking fluid is your favorite and where do you get it? Does Oreilly or Autozone carry this?

Why use Stabil if you're going to ride the bike? Seafoam gets good reviews but I've had good results with Gunk injector cleaner and Techron which AFAIK, is what Chevron adds to their gasoline.

I do my best to run non ethanol fuel in my lawn equipment as well as bikes. There is an app called pure gas that locates the nearest non E stations and what grade fuel they carry as well as the distance from you. I will use Seafoam when I feel the need but an ounce of prevention works best.

I like Chevron Techron Complete Fuel System Cleaner and Red Line SI 1.
AutoZone has the 32 oz Techron Fuel System cleaner on Sale for $10.99 right now.
I would use about an ounce per gallon.

Berrymans B12 good for cleaning carb
Mixing seafoam and stabil together - sounds like a science project - I can't really speak to the affects
Personally - I'd siphon out the gas and start over w/ fresh
