hey man i know i am not a pro and about as newB as it gets... if you put that in the oil i would put a LOW level in there run it till it warms up and do a oil change. i would not ride with it in there. Small engines small room for fluid...
seafoam acts as a debri break down so it will break down the good oil also...

personally i would do 2 oil changes 500 to 1000 miles apart or less if you are trying to clean things up...

Just my 2 Cents i could be wrong.... over fill your oil will create stress on your rings and clutch and so on and so forth....

i am A NEWB but i hope i provided some quality insight....

Here's an idea. Why not go to the source and check with them on how they recommend using the product.
