Default Fuel additives

Does anyone regularly put additives into their fuel? I don't and have no intention to start... just curious.

Saw a joke on tv about Wynns fuel additives called Wynns-start-ya-bastard...

I've put in fuel and carb cleaner addative in before. It worked ok to even out the bike just after I bought it as a stop gap to getting a full tune. I would probally use it again just to keep the carbies clean, its my $5 insurance policy.

I use injector cleaner in my carbed Birdabout every 10’th gas fill, I don't no if it prevents carb clogging, but if it does its worth it. I think such stuff works best when they are not needed, as a preventive action.

I have used it on my girl and I did notice the difference too. I actually used it 2 months before we went on our trip, then after a month I took the bike into the shop to have the valves done and had the carbs taken off as well and they said the carbys were fine when they pulled them apart, so yes I would use it again.
