If you lend someone $20 and never see that person again, it was probably worth it.
The manufacture recommends one Oz per gallon....If heavy cleaning is needed two Oz per gal of gasoline .....One thing i know on the ATV's at camp, When they sit for long periods the carburetors will gum up from stale gas and a triple dose of sea foam cleans them out in no time...Originally Posted by Sully

The stuff Kinna reminds me of when we cleaned engine parts with kerosine they came out spotless...

It can be used as a top end cleaner, fuel stabiliser, you can add it to your engine oil before an oil change to clean out the oil galleries, and sludge in the oil pan and bottom of the crank case

I got a bad tank of gas last week while riding out in the Badlands of SD. Tri Glide would barely run, sputtering along. At first I thought of spark plugs coming loose, or plug wires coming loose. Checked em, nope. Mary asked if we had any Sea Foam.
Ever since we got a bad tank of fuel a few years ago I always carry a can of Sea Foam with me.
Dumped the whole can in there and within a couple of minutes it cleared up and was running fine, and we continued our ride thru the Badlands.
Good stuff!

Well after our friend on the trip west, had his tour pack lid snatched out of his hand by the wind & cracked his tour pack, I ordered this as soon as we got home. Ultra Brace for the tour pack. Holds lid very steady & I doubt the wind will affect it. $80 is cheaper than a busted tourpack.

Seafoam
Jack,
Should I add Seafoam to a cold engine then ride for a few miles or add 100 miles before an oil change?
Cagmo
I add before an oil change, just enuff miles to warm the engine up

Thank you, sir.I add before an oil change, just enuff miles to warm the engine up
Wow. That's some strong wind. Had the Ultra Brace on my last three bikes but just not gotten around to getting one for this 2020 TG. Guess I better get with the program and order one. Thanks for the reminder.

2019 Tri-Glide.......
Just ordered . . . but from www.directcycleparts.com
$5 discount from msrp and shipping only $7.95 vs $12.95 + $2.00 for handling if bought direct from E Glide Goodies. Very same item - E Glide Goodies sells on this platform as well as Dennis Kirk, J&P and probably a few more. Of course the 'big guys' have to charge sales tax also.
I'll have to look at this on your TG next month...see if it is better than our 25 cent Safety Tether.
Kevin
It won't break like the tether's. All metal. Joe's tether snapped right at the edge of the end

I have the OEM Harley Tether (which can break, as Joe knows) and I have a paracord safety/backup tether that cost less than 25 cents to make (as seen in video). Both would have to break to get me in trouble.

I parked under some sort of weird tree last night. This morning there were thousands of tiny needle point drops of sap on the Trike. They were not sticky until the sun beat on them a bit.
I used a microfiber and some waterless cleaner to test a spot to see how difficult they would be to remove. Fortunately they came right off. Gonna finish wiping the whole bike down tomorrow.
Trike is NOT parked under a tree tonight.
Kevin
Maybe so,but the metal bracket won't break & locks in place when opened. I did see the paracord "fix" ,but like the bracket,so much better,as it is nice & sturdy,locks in place. Lid won't move one way or another till you release it. Can't beat it IMHO.

I agree Bill. Really like the ultra brace. The paracord will definitely work as a back up but like the old style non-retractable cable H-D used to use you have to move it out of the way to close the lid. And with the ultra brace there is no tether to get in you way when the lid is open. Win win I calls it.
