Default Stabil

Anyone use it to get past the winter ? Taking it out for a quick spin isn't an option with all the white stuff on the ground.

I have it in my tank for the first time. I don't plan on riding again until march.

No worries here sine I have efi. It will just burn out with the gas when I start my bike up.

I use marine stabil (the green stuff) in my boat, bike, lawnmower, snowblower, powerwasher, and leaf blower. Workd like a charm and works better on E10 gas than the red stabil.

Been using it for years in my bikes and lawn tractor. In the spring, I just start them up and go.
