injector cleaner

2005 RK with 15K miles. Anyone have any suggestions for a good injector cleaner? Does the product really make a difference? Suspect I fouled something up with multiple bad gas stops on the way to and from Sturgis. Periodic rattling can noise right side of bike down by the cam chain cover when stopped and the rpms seem to drop off.

Suggest Seafoam for the injectors but more importantly you should check the cam chain tensioners ASAP !!! Metal to metal noises cost big bucks.

I'd be suprised if your problem is fuel related. The first thing to check would be the cam chain tensioner pads. This is a common problem on pre 07 twin cams. Your mileage is a bit low for this but who knows.

For an injector cleaner I use Seafoam. It's also a fuel stabilizer.
