Typical naysayers the lot of you. Oil is ther as a lubricant but even with that lubricant your engine does get worn (just look at the pistons of a working 120'000 mile bike to that of a 2'000 mile bike and you will know what I am talking about.) If this product extends the life of your motorcycle it can only be good.

time will tell sv dan keep us posted.

Yep, but. If under high pressure and heat you get corrosion of aluminium parts over time, that can only be not good. The demo doesn't replicate the actual working conditions of the product. I'm interested to see what happens, put it that way.

You have gotten me interested in all this now, so done a bit of searching...

comments towards the bottom of the page in bold seem to back up one or two points made here...
though the product on that page claims to be differnt.. someones pointed out why the oil industries no longer push that type of stuff....

also general consensus on this site is, dont touch it with a barge pole.. use Magnatec instead... :lol:

When I read in the Activ8 Technical Test Report the generation of hydrogen chloride above 200C the alarm bells started ringing.

Now where's that barge pole?

Not the stuff to be putting in your modern engine IMO.

See this is why I should have studied engineering at school. So potentially we could be talking about long term internal corrosion? All I know is that the bike feels much better for what I put in it today. Like you say, does make me wonder why this stuff is not used by everyone and their dog but then there could be other reasons for that too.

Oil companies would be out of business sharpish if they started making oil that did its job properly.... :lol:

Ah, the nimbyism of the bike modifier (Not In My Bike, Yet) :wink:

Interesting.

On one hand, why should this additive do anything my oil isn't doing already?

On the other, engines do wear, even if you maintain hell out of them, and could/would they sell this if it was harmful in any way?


I could believe it being of no real benefit, but I can't see that it would do actual harm, if it corroded something it would be very easy to prove.


Here's hoping it does what it claims to.

I've seen and taken part in the same demonstration and it is very impressive. Certainly got a few sales out of it but i didnt buy any.
