    just for ****s m giggles I went out and started the 1203 up.. BOOOOM first try, just fired up real easy. I sear that old, first generation Walbro fuel pump sounds a tad smoother too... Ive only put a 1/2 tank of this through it.

    Ya it started right up when I took it out for my lunch break today. I'm going to keep using it at least for a few fill ups seems to help a lot with the smoothness pf the bike. Thanks Gloom for showing me the light!

    took the 1203 out, backfired on startup and the reserve light came on (I had less fuel than I thought).. I guess the 2-cycle freed up a bunch of crap from the walls of the tank. I ran the reserve almost dry to get it out of there.. (it ran ok but not great) Filled it back up with fresh 93 Octane and it came back to life but not quite as good as it was with the 2-cycle. Rode the 2 miles home on just gasoline and added my 40ml of 2-cycle and kept on riding.. that smooth powerful feeling came back. Its NOT my imagination!

    *Weekend Update* Took a good hard ride and everything works flawless! Low, Mid, and High RPM ranges smooth as silk. I reset my avg. mpg right before the first 2-stroke added to my bike. As of right now I got 2 MPG better and I have been running the bike a lot harder. In my opinion this stuff helped my bike out in just the first time I added it. I will be continuing to use this in all my vehicles for now on! Thanks again Gloom.

    This gets my

    I was at the club talking to my Hot Rod buddy again. I was asking about why it seems to work, he said "You are probably picking up a few percent from a combination of 3 or 4 things going on at the same time... modern fuel has alcohol in it, it could also be that you may be taking the motor out of a semi "lean" condition. You are adding a hydrocarbon, ... THATS NEVER BAD. "
    Then he told me stories about his 125cc dirtbike, he told me to try out a 2-cycle that he said was a BEAST, but I forgot what the oil was called "Bell-something or other" he said it was for air-cooled motors and it felt like he doubled his displacement up to a 250... anybody know what oil he was talking about "Bell-something".. he said he had tried another one called "Gold-somethingorother".. he said for him, it wasn't has good and ran dirty.
