I can't voutch for its effectiveness. The only time I used it was when I put my gixxer in storage for a year and someone mentioned about running some seafoam through it before buttoning it up. Started/ran fine a year later.

I put a half bottle in my gas tank twice a year. Just to keep the injectors and valves from gooking up.

I've also been using it for years, back in my DSM days. It did wonders on carbon buildup.

I first heard about Seafoam about 8 years ago when I belonged to a Goldwing forum. These guys used to swear by (not at) this stuff. I had just purchased an 89 Wing with ultra low miles for being 18 years old at the time. The bike wasn't riden much for two years before I bought it, so the acceleration was a bit hesitant at part throttle. The forum members said to use Seafoam (1/2 bottle) every other tank. I did just that, and within about a month, the hesitation was completly gone and the bike ran like a Swiss watch. Since then, I've been a true believer.
NickTurnon and falconfixer like this.
