Sta-bil
Do we have many people here who are using Sta-Bil in their bike? Ran into a guy recently who just bought a new '12 Ultra and he said he had been using it in a couple of his bikes for a while because of the ethanol issue. I have never used it. Do you think it's a good idea? All replies appreciated.

I don't ride much in the coldest part of the winter months. It doesn't hurt anything to use Sta-Bil if you do ride so I've always made it a habit of putting some Sta-Bil in the tank when I think I'm through riding for a while. I think it better to be safe than sorry the old saying goes.

I fill the tank right to the top with Stabil-ized gas then run for a few minutes to get it through the system when winter storing. In the spring I siphon the old gas out (dump it in my truck) and refill with fresh an good to go.
