kerosene (paraffin) is heating oil so its mineral. it comes from the same process of making petrol, diesel, tar etc.etc from crude oil.

btw, my bike gets kept outside without a cover all winter, most of the time i dont even take the battery out and i never drain the tank. come the start of the season it fires up first or second push of the button. the bike has only ever let me down once with electrical problems and that was the connectors on the RR. i have only been through one battery in the 7 years 37k i have owned it. oohhh and it only ever gets used once a week on a sunday apart from my annual tour up north which is a long weekend.
