Not intended to be the Great ethanol debate thread. Moral of the story: Ride, Brother whenever wherever you can. If she goes into hibernation then run her dry and pray for an early spring. Merry Christmas.

Ethanol has messed up my boats 5 times, various lawn mowers a few times and the pressure washer. I cleaned all of them and none, along with some newer items, have ever had problems on non-ethanol gas. Every boat mechanic I have spoken to says not to use ethanol in boats because they don't get used often enough. By extension, this should apply to any part time engine. Stabilizers may help, but I won't put ANY ethanol in any of my lower use stuff. I do use ethanol in my bikes, but use non-ethanol when I can and certainly approaching winter. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to a topic in the Google Groups "Nighthawk Motorcycle Lovers!" group.
