'You should have only put about a 1/4 of in in your gas and ran it with a full tank of gas. Youll need to drain everything out and restart with fresh gas not seafoam then once it starts add seafoam

no i was gradually pouringabout 5 ounces in but my bike cut off because it ran out of gas and i just poured the rest in which was about 2 ounces. Butmy battery was very close to dead so im wondering if that might becontributing to the problem

I have Seafoam in my tank now Just about 4 oz's and I think the bike runs worse then without it. I mean it don't run bad, but I sure don't think it's helping.

Charge your battery and put fresh fuel in and see what happens.
