    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

If a bike is ridden every few weeks throughout the year, does it need Stabil?

How long before gas goes bad?

With ALL of the ethanol crap that they put in it, about a month! :mad: Lucas sells a anti-ethanol stabilizer that costs about $9.00 a bottle at WalMart and treats about 80 gallons.
 
Stabil is cheap, so use it as insurance in seldom used bike. 8 oz bottle will treat 80 gallons of gas as maintenance dose. I suggest the marine formula version.
It's not just how old the gas is, but what fell in their tanks before it found you!
 
Stabil burns?

Say it's summer, and a bike is ridden almost every day. What would be the theoretical, or molecular differences between stabilized, and non-stabilized 92 octane northeast U.S. gas?

Beats me, but my bike is happy with 87 octane- don't waste your money, buy Stabil instead-it doesn't matter if you ride everyday or once a month, your bike will be happier!
