your bike not running too well??
kind of slugish???

try this! hope it helps you as much as it helped me

you will need a bottle of redex (£4.99 or sold in shots for £1)

first you need to warm up your engin to normal running temperature e.g. just after coming in remove spark plugs and squirt 50ml of Redex into each on of the plug holes then just leave for 30 mins

when you come back cover all holes with tissue and turn engin over to put out excess redex now put plugs back in after cleaning with a wire bush then start her up.

bike may smoke for first 5 mins as its burning the rest of the redex off but will go like a rocket.

i have used this method on all of my bikes expecially the 2 strokes iv had works so well you can get redex from any halfords or car shops.

also adding it to your fuel helps keep your carb clean.

I think you'll find it's a fuel additive...

You put it in your petrol tank and it clears out all gummage through the fuelling system.

Yes, it may help a bunged up bike run better. But I'm not about to put it in my barrels for 30mins in a warm engine!

It just blows all the crap out, and it's very good stuff. But the traditional way to use it is just to add to the petrol and let it do its work!

I've used it before just to see what it was like. Put it in an RD125. Didn't notice any difference what so ever after.

Same with a few friends who have tried it.

Its been around for years, and I mean a long time. But with better oil and cleaner petrol, you dont really need to us it in modern engines.

Thumbs Up

It's perfectly safe to do and is a recognised method of removing the crap , works especially well in 2 strokes .
