Hey all
In my clymer's on my K1200lt (BMW) it says do NOT add ANYTHING to the gas for
storage. (stabilizers etc.)
"it may corode or fowl the system."
I don't know if something is differant with BMW's But it makes me think who else
(makers Kawasaki, honda etc.) says the same thing?

I was a skeptic; now I am a believer.

You know, chickens, ducks, geese, etc. Don't add them to your gas tank.

I used to winterize my KLR: heated grips, hippo hands, Ford F250 seat
heating pad unter the stock vinyl, 800 micro studs in a Barum-Mitas
C09 front tire, and ~250 #6 x 1/2" hex-head sheet metal screws in a
rear Kenda K270.
