My bike is jetted great now. So I'm not using anything. I haven't for quite a while. Seafoam works great if you need it but you shouldn't need it. My bike is running great and all the noises these big ole Vs make doesn't bother me. She sounds happy.

So can someone smarter than me (which should probably be just about anyone here) tell me if the Lucasoil is inherently different than the Marvel Mystery Oil? If so, I might give it a shot.

Thanks Musky, I don't like to get "dependent" on additives... But, I gotta say... there would be no false advertising if the gasoline makesr came out on TV and said... "It's not your grandfathers gasoline anymore..." I mean... at these prices and the quality (or lack therof...) I'm ready to go with Colman camp stove fuel... (which, by the way, is only $3.50 a gallon!) Gee, I wonder how the Star would run on Naptha?

Teal  I`m almost done with my 1st 5.25 bottle and I plan to
continue useing it.
Soba  I went to the MMO site and it didn`t say.Lucas on the other hand tells you what`s "not"in thier product that could be harmful to
an engine
I did notice that my last fill up at Sinclar it said could contain up to
10% ethanol.I`m thinkin we get the same crap here they get in Cali.And we
know that crap can bring your milage down

Going on an MDA rally this weekend. I'm going to try the Lucas treatment and see if it helps. Tried almost everything else (except Coleman fuel).
