NO, they are absolutely not like all those snake oil remedies that you mentioned, they have been proven to do exactly what they claim by leading independent labratories. If you use the link I provided you can see for yourself, even do searches on your own. I still haven't read anything that says they are not what they claim.(Mr. Anderson @ Jan. 04 2007,20:12)are those the famous "gas pills" that you can get? I hope you were kidding and being sarcastic.. those rank up there with the gas magnets and ionizers kits. all junk.
And I forgot to mention I had a 2001 model Victory Sport Cruiser and had them in the tank for 3 years, every winter that bike would sit in the garage for 2 1/2 to 3 months with a full tank of gas, and when i got her ready for spring riding the fuel still smelled fresh and the bike ran perfectly, when I traded that bike in for my currrent 2004 Victory Kingpin I took them out of the SC tank and transferred them to the Kingpin and their still in there and that bike hasn't been run for a couple of months now because I'm spending all my time riding the 'busa but I'm not worried because I KNOW it will be fine, and I just received my new set of Fitch Catalyst today in the mail and they will be in the 'busa's tank tomorrow.
Sorry if I seem overzealous about this product but it's a rare occasion when there's a subject that I have complete confidence in and willing to share my experience with anyone that's interested. I just feel that a one time solution that works for the life of your bike is better than messing with any additives you have to use over and over such as stabilizers, fuel sys. cleaners, octane boosters and the like, when this option is one time and that's it and it does everything all those other products do and more.
Once a YEAR??!! My friend, you are not worthy of a Busa.. Try saying this word: VESSSSSSS-pa..(porterfm @ Jan. 05 2007,20:32) Thanks for all the great info. Old Blue is now good to go with Stabil and even put some in the old Z28 since I don't drive it but about once a year! Cheers and keep the rubber side down!
Very worthy of the busa! it's the Z28 that only gets out about once a year! Collector car!(BUSAFETT @ Jan. 05 2007,18:54)Once a YEAR??!! My friend, you are not worthy of a Busa..

just curious HOW one would use this on a busa? Do you take off the tank and dump the stuff in the FI system and then the oil filler like the vid says or just pour so much in the fuel tank and call it a day?
Don't flame since i didn't create the stuff, sell the stuff, or witness anyone who's used it firsthand so it's just a question i'm asking. I don't see a video of someone dumping it into a junker car as a good reference to how one should use it on a prestine high performance bike like the busa either. Main note is i doubt you'd use the whole can for a bike as opposed to a car.
just put the suggested ammount in the fuel tank, I would only put it in the oil before a oil change.

stabil all the way!!
Put in gas tank. I put half a can in w/ full tank of gas. Then go for a ride. You now have an excuse to hit it hard a few times ( have to mix up gas(COLDSTONE1298 @ Jan. 06 2007,19:42)just curious HOW one would use this on a busa?

I learned about the stuff working at Car Quest auto parts. It was the only thing the long time Hardley guy would use. He said the other stabilizers like stabil and mystery oil were great for cars, but screwed up the carbs on the hardleys. He found that the Seafoam made the bikes run cleaner and kept the engines clean along with stabilizing gas. He rebuilt Hardleys in his garage and said his pistons and valves looked awesome with the stuff. He ran it all year long.
Stabil is good stuff.
Marvels I prefer and will always swear by. I've used it to unfreeze a 76 Zuki 90cc dirtbike engine that seized, didn't run for crap, but it unlocked it.
Seafoam...no way in he!! I'd put that in my Busa. I use it to clean the carbon out of LSx engines though. How to use it for that, simply d/c your brake booster vacuum hose, slowly drip seafoam in while engine is running at high step rpm, and you can also shoot 1/4 cup into each cylinder via a vacuum hose into the spark plug hole, let sit over night and fire it up, high rpm's help or else the plugs foul. Change plugs, and do it again months later depending on oil consumption. Not for the Busa, at least not mine.
