RE: liquid additives
well, thx for the replies (and the harping fret)
as of now i am not running anything in her but premium,
what "crap" would be left in the system?
from what i understand it removes this "crap" from your system, injectors, etc.
its specifically made for motocycles, not what you put in your car.
heres a link to it:

As you can see in the table above, synthetics offer real advantages when your engine is very cold and when your engine is very hot. The viscosity numbers shown above are at 212°F. At 32°F the PAOs and Diesters have about one third the viscosity of the mineral oils, meaning they pump through your engine three times better. Since about 75% of all the wear on your engine happens in the first five minutes after you start it up, synthetics offer an advantage in significantly reducing engine wear.

RE: liquid additives
You're not supposed to...
I use stabil or some other brand fuel stablizer for winter. I on occassion have run motorcycle carb cleaner... but not regularily.
Properly storing your bike for winter, riding it frequently and a host of other general maintance things means that it's better taken care of than 95% of the other bikes out there, and I see most of them running well enough despite the abuse. I figure given that why do anything more... she runs well and that's about all I care.

well, thx for the replies (and the harping fret)
as of now i am not running anything in her but premium,
what "crap" would be left in the system?
from what i understand it removes this "crap" from your system, injectors, etc.
its specifically made for motocycles, not what you put in your car.
