Absolutely.

Same here. I add some Stabil to the bike and anything else that sits all winter. Don't forget to add it to your gasoline containers too.

During weeks of no riding, yes. However, I pay a bit more for the blue-greenish Sta-Bil Marine, which is supposed to be better, especially controlling moisture. Works for me.

There are two varieties - I store my bike with corn free gas and but if I didn’t I would use the Marine Formula instead of the regular one.

STA-BIL Fuel Stabilizer is America’s top selling fuel stabilizer. Stored fuel can go bad in as little as 30-60 days causing gum, varnish and corrosion to build up in the fuel lines and engine. STA-BIL is recommended to be used AT EVERY FILL UP in all vehicles and equipment to protect against gum and varnish formation. STA-BIL also contains corrosion inhibitors that can protect against corrosion.

Marine Formula STA-BIL Ethanol Treatment & Performance Improver contains DOUBLE the corrosion preventers and more than FOUR TIMES the fuel system cleaner than in Regular STA-BIL to prevent against corrosion and deposit build up in Marine Engines. Use AT EVERY FILL UP to protect your boat or other marine equipment.
