    PC3, Modded air box, K&N Filter, Gel comfort seat

    EFI intake speed chip module on ebay.. is it garbage?

    Like previously stated... this advances the timing by a little bit, tricking the ecu to think the bike is always cold. Use the money for a 15t front sprocket.

    Bike has been sitting for quite a long time and now won't start

    Sea foam helps clean deposits and other nastiness outta the crankcase, it IS fine to add to the oil and will not hurt anything. However, in a wet mesh clutch like the fz6 the seafoam could cause slippage in the clutch... IMHO our bikes probly wouldnt be strong enough to make this happen...

    Sea Foam

    Sea foam works great for minor cleaning and fuel stabilization. It is one of the few products on the shelf that actually works decent and is not a complete waste of money. However, it is a very good idea to clean your bike every year of deposits, gum, and especially carbon. The only product I...

    Attention Auto mechanics, failed smog help!!!

    Add a couple cans of sea-foam to a little amount of gas.. I work at a bike shop and all the old timers say that when their cars did not pass they would do this and then it would pass. Worth a try anyhow!
