I think the main problem is if you leave the bike standing for a length of timeExtended storage leads to the fuel absorbing water as its hydroscopic that then leads to rotted tanks as the water separates from the fuel and then sits in the bottom of the tankSame happens in the carbs bowls that can rot brass ware etcAlso like it says seals need to be viton but is new to here so most older bikes are not e10 suitable due to older type rubber in useAlso hear that if left even in newer bikes if they are not used often the fuel will damage injectors as you cannot drain these for long term storage unlike good old carbsI think for newer vehicles obviously the seals are compatible and the main thing is if it’s in regular use the fuel does not remain for long in the tank and other critical areas of the fuel systemAlso not god for my RD35C eitherSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk[/quote

Yes, fingers crossed. I expect to return a broken man:physically, mentally and fiscally. Hence getting in the 550 restoration and 500 purchase now.
