    Due to the many dscussions on the affects of Ethanol on our bikes I have been researching the issue and came by this product.
    http://mystarbrite.com/startron
    Has anyone used this and does it do as advertised. I'ts supposed to emusify with the ethanol and prevent the issues that come along with it.

    If no one has used it and there are no claims of it being snakeoil, I will purchase some and give a report. It will take some time to do that though because we are set to receive 10 - 12 inches of new snow tonight thereby prolonging the PMS.

    I guess no one has any experience with this stuff. As soon as the snow clears I'll pick some up and give it the test.

    I'm calling Snake Oil on that one.... like most products.
    Oh I'm sure it works pretty well as a cleaner, and okay as a stabilizer, but that's about as far as it'll go.
    MSDS sheet for the stuff says its >95% Naptha, <0.5% organic compounds.
    Those must be some pretty amazing 'organic compounds' if that little provides all those extra claims.

    As a comparison, the favorite cleaner/additive I've heard of is Seafoam.
    It's MSDS says:
    40-60% Pale Oil
    25-35% Naptha
    10-20% IPA (Isopropanol)
