Hey Calli. That thing still brand new isn't it?

I run Marvel Mystery Oil in mine every now and then. Not familiar with SeaFoam.

I love the seafoam product. I use it in all my cages from time to time. I have never tried it in my bike but it is an awesome product none the less.

Calli, considering that your bike is almost new, I would let Harley look at it first... With that said, Seafoam is a great product, I have used it for years, in my vehicles, and boats, lawnmowers, etc. It will work just fine in a bike... :wink:

I do not think that using a different brand is the way I would go though. Seafoam is the best one of those type additives I have ever found..

Well damn...

Seafoam? I'll have to see if I can find it.

I've always been a MMO user. But it sounds worth checking out.

Marvel Mystery oil and Seaform are two completely different products.. :wink:

Marvel Mystery Oil is a top cylinder lubricant.

SeaFoam is a cleaner with some lube in it...
