I use Sea Foam in all my motors..bike, lawn tractor, push mower, generator....excellent results, great fuel stabilizer...

 

You'll probably never have any injector problems but Seafoam also works great as a fuel stabilizer.
FYI: I had a fuel injected pickup that sat for about 4 months before I could get it sold. It had a bad miss so I checked the plugs and wires and found no problems.Then I put half a can of Seafoam in the half tank of gas it had and drove it for about 20 minutes. the miss from the stuck injector completely disappeared. Pretty cheap tune up.

Watch this on an automobile... variation would work on bike! JMHO

 

This is an article from a boat forum I frequent, the guy that wrote it is a marine engine tech. I thought you all may want to take a look. As far as Sea- Foam, it works and should be used to prevent fuel phase separation from happening. If you have a two stroke engine, even oil injected....they require twice the dose of fuel additive's as the two stroke oil activates phase separation faster..........

""I took some pictures of some fuel lines that we have here at the shop so you can see what happens when ethanol breaks the liners inside of them down. It will eventually cause fuel line failure as you can see in the pictures. The newer fuel lines are "suppose" to be ethanol resistant and they do not have the liners in them, but only time will tell. The fuel lines in these pictures are really not that old, the one that is fully collapsed is a 2003 model. We have seen them do this within 3 years. Alot of it also depends on where you live and how much ethanol is in your local fuel supply. We have started testing fuel in the boats we service to see how much ethanol is in it and the most we have seen so far is about 5%.
I am also putting up a couple of pics of what happens with ethanol "phase separation". Ethanol absorbs the moisture out of the air and once it reaches a certain content, it separates. The shelf life of E-10 is roughly 90 days under ideal conditions.
The best advice I can give you is to check your fuel line to see if it has the liner in it and also the fuel lines on the engine. If the ones on the engine feel "soft, spongy, or gummy" you might want to have them checked by a service tech. If your main fuel line has the liner in it, replace it with a newer one that doesnt. Also if you do not have a water separating fuel filter, I would recomend installing one that uses a 10 micron filter. Always run some sort of fuel stabilizer and treatment such as Sea Foam, or brands that your engine manufacturer puts out. StaBil has come out with an ethanol treatment for marine applications recently but I have not seen any research that has been done with it, so I cannot tell you if its good or not.
I know in Arkansas, if the fuel pumps do not have labels on the pumps that say "This fuel may contain up to 10% ethanol", they cannot have ethanol in their gas. These are the only places I try to get my gas at now but they are becoming pretty rare. So you might check around with distributors and see if they have any stations that do not have ethanol in their gas.
Fuel line with liner in it....



Liner in the fuel line is starting to deteriorate and change colors



This is what happens to a fuel line that completly deteriorates from ethanol. The liner comes apart. It will also get into your fuel system of your engine.



Two examples of "phase separation".



(The gas below was only a couple of weeks old)

There you have it , you decide..... Is it worth the cost for Sea- Foam?

 

Best I've ever used. 1oz per gallon of gas.

 

I use sea foam

 

have used ams oil PI, [performane inhancer] in all my motorcycles, cars trucks for 15-20 years.never had injector problem yet.excellent product.

 

I use the sea foam. After reading this I will be putting in some when I put it up for the winter. The Marathon stations already put in STP Gas treatment here. So a little sea foam any way just to be safe.

 

Been using Sea Foam in my bikes for years, good stuff. Found that WalMart has the best price.

 

For warm months I use nothing, as gas doesn't stay in the tank too long. Winter it gets Stabil. Every now & then I'll run a tank w/Techron for cleaning the fuel system. Nothing against SeaFoam, had good results using it in the gas of small 4 stroke engines, and in their oil just before an oil change.
