I was being facetious, ignore me.

What is "Pro Boost"? Octane booster? Don't bother would be my advice.

TBH most of these "magic" fuel additives do little good, if any at all with the potential to be harmful.

If I was going to try something similar I'd run a couple of tanks of premium petrol through the bike which supposedly have extra detergents in them to clean the engine.

But in reality, I wouldn't even bother doing that.

I'd save the money you could spend on fancy fuels and just put it towards some more decent two stroke oil.

If its silkolene pro boost then use between 1%and 3% or about a teaspoons worth for every 5 litres of fuel you put in the tank. It is safe for 2 strokes unlike most of the additives which break down the oil in the top end and crank....but if you do use it...I wouldn't bother using it all the time as a booster if that was your idea?

Take one already grenade like 2 stroke.

Add chemical.

£450 to PJME.

Or... you could just fill it with normal fuel, ride it properly and the carbon shall be built up so slowly you'll never know.

FFS dont do it, if you put any of that in ur fuel expect it to seize up,,,
2T's ar highly tuned engines and if you mix that pup with ur fuel you make it run lean, it will take a small amount of % from ur air fuel mix making it run hot then seize
also if you bike is jetted to take 95 octane fuel dont use no special or premium fuel as this will be bad to, standerd fuel with good semi-simthetic oil and the rs125 last,,, run them on crap oil or all singing n dancing power or economy fuel and thay dont like it you'll be doing a engine re-billd be for carbon deposit billd up

ps silkolene is a fantastic oil to use on the rs but silkolene pro boost err no
