Carb icing season starts...
 

Anyone else getting it yet? I usualyl seem to get it first with the foam filter :roll: Back on the Optimax I go.

carbs... what are they?... hehe :twisted:

If I had a bike with SV fuel injection, I'd be keeping quiet about it ;)

......or stick a noisy can on it!

Not yet...but not looking forward to finding out what happens! :(

You know, until recently I was under the impression mine was fairly reasonable. But I gather I'm delusional from some of the commetns after the last ride :roll: The twins were louder though.

My sv isn't on the road yet for me to experience it. Didn't have it on my last sv. Seems to strike bikes randomly. Had it on my ninja really bad, had to sell it because of it!

Why not use a fuel additive instead northwind? Silkolene or something something....something...?

not yet.. though I have some FST in the porch.

Mine way a bit iffy a couple of weeks ago... was about -3 when i left for work :( just never ran right all the way through, been on opti since an been behaving so far :D

Most of the time Optimax does the trick (hopefully the new stuff will be the same) and it's cheaper than Pro FST. 1% is the standard mix, 16 litres means you need 160ml to treat a tank, Pro FST's atround £8 a litre bottle so it's £1.28 a tank, super over regular adds about 7p a litre around here so £1.12 per tank. Also less hassle :) I'll drop in some Pro FST if I'm going to be riding in really bad icing conditions, cold fog etc.
