#178050 PhantomXT (User) 4 wheels move the body. 2 wheels move the soul. Fresh Boarder Posts: 44 Re:Fuel? 4 Years, 1 Month ago   Do you think that I've run it long enough to cause carbon buildup that may be a problem, and if so is there a treatment that any of you might recommend?   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #178051 Josh102 (User) FAT BOY HUNTER Fresh Boarder Posts: 45 Re:Fuel? 4 Years, 1 Month ago   I doubt it. Carbon build up occurs over a longer period of time than 4 tanks. just put some 85 in her and run the piss out of it.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #178052 Musky (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 15137 Re:Fuel? 4 Years, 1 Month ago   4 tanks ain't much. I wouldn't worry. But you could get some Seafoam or other cleaner and put a couple ounces in the gas for 2 or 3 tanks to help clean things up. Also take the bike out and hit the rev limiter a few times. That helps shake things loose.   Logged     Last Edit: 2009/03/26 12:52 By Musky.     The administrator has disabled public write access. #178101 Hotelfox (User) Riding The BIG RED THUNDERCHICKEN!! Platinum Boarder Posts: 1788 Re:Fuel? 4 Years, 1 Month ago   PhantomXT Yes got to watch that flame propagation with the higher octane gases. If you are running the hi compression pistons you could go to 89, but I wouldn't go any higher like the minds have said!!   Logged     Proud Member of Patriot Guard Riders Hiram\\\\\\\'s Riders M C   The administrator has disabled public write access. #178204 hllywd (User) Senior Boarder Posts: 251 Re:Fuel? 4 Years, 1 Month ago   Hotelfox wrote: PhantomXT Yes got to watch that flame propagation with the higher octane gases.

I kind of though I'd try 89 when mine comes back with the 10.25:1s, I figured I'd end up at 91 though... maybe not?

That's why you tend to get more carbon build up. At best with High Octane you are wasting money, at worst you are helping SVS along. jmoNot that SVS again HELP   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #178278 ajbonner (User) Gold Boarder Posts: 699 Re:Fuel? 4 Years, 1 Month ago   i have heard it said that if you break in your engine on 92 for example you should leave it there. Is this an old wives tale? If it is bogus....why? Thanks   Logged     Two wheels are better than four!   The administrator has disabled public write access.
