I think it is a very, *very* poor idea to add anything hydrocarbon-based and as thin as Seafoam to your oil. Heck, look back in the archives of this list and you'll find multiple recommendations to change the oil after running Seafoam or Techron in the gas tank, because these lightweight solvents can have a tendency to migrate to the oil as the engine's running. Why would you ever intentionally thin out your oil and run the engine under load? Thor

Jud i already explained in my other post that more H.P.was not my intention,bigger piston and as you suggest better suspension would help in this area,I'm looking for a more tractable motor as in "IE"fr e'er breathing,more air getting in and Gas. All OEM engines from the factory be they cars bikes "Blah Blah"are Strangled for emissions purposes so like the nu-arty boy that i am,I'm going to put a little more CO2 than i should into the atmosphere to see if i can wake this motor up a bit,if it doesn't work guess what i can go back to stock and thanks for your input anyway.                                                            Stu.

Exhaust and intake/carb mods will not net you more than 3hp on any credible dyno. If you want a faster KLR, spend the money on suspension.
