I can vouch for that... I'm new to the KLR world, but I've used it on three totally gummed up Seca's and the stuff is magic in a can. Do the basic cleaning first to make sure everything is at least flowing in all the right places, then use the SeaFoam on your first ride (or three). The stuff is awesome and I've yet to find anything else that works as well. I occasionally use it in the Jeep and FJR for good measure as well. The K will probably see a can in a few thousand miles. --Jonathan "smthng" Kalmes Springfield, VA 2005 Yamaha FJR1300ABS - "Blue Bayou" 2006 Jeep Unlimited Rubicon - "Teflon" 2008 Kawasaki KLR 650 - It's here, but it hasn't earned a name yet. http://smthng.info "Look, the truth is, I've been trying to save the world, one person at a time, but, I'm meant for smthng bigger.

"SeaFoam" comes in a metal can about $7 roughly, add to fuel and drive. They also have a SeaFoam Deep Creep spray (?) but I use the SeaFoam in can as a cleaner/fuel stabilizer. Standard disclaimer applies, it will not clean out solid particales of course, but varnish and goo it has never failed me. http://www.seafoamsales.com/ Snake oil if you read the can, never used but for fuel myself.

The only gas additives I can get here are Gunk and STP. Gunk is a pretty big company in S.C. I believe, check out their website. Anyone has experience with those products? The only seafoam I can get here is at the beach, where the surf form a bubbly foam.

Not I, but I do know that if you log in to yahoo groups and check your profile, somewhere in there is a report of any troubles it has sending messages to you. Might be a good starting point, but I don't know what it reports for digests. --Jonathan "smthng" Kalmes Springfield, VA 2005 Yamaha FJR1300ABS - "Blue Bayou" 2006 Jeep Unlimited Rubicon - "Teflon" 2008 Kawasaki KLR 650 - It's here, but it hasn't earned a name yet. http://smthng.info "Look, the truth is, I've been trying to save the world, one person at a time, but, I'm meant for smthng bigger.
