Grump,
Periodically I use a Gas Additive, maybe every other or every third fillup. My bike only has 9200 miles on it, but has run very strong and consistant the whole time. The gas additive that I use does not have any alcohol, just straight additives. So 0.5 ounce will treat 5 gallons.
Currently I am out in the middle of the South Pacific Ocean for work. Prior to leaving home I drained the carb bowls. I generally do this if I am going to be gone longer than 3 weeks. Anyway, when I drained the gas out I inspected it for any contamination, and found nothing but clear gas.
I had to drain the carbs once last year with the same results.
