Spent some time in ICU years ago but it wasn't the bike that I was ridings fault. Even at just over a walking pace the car that hits you always wins. I'm now the proud owner of a high milage body.

I have an old RR Classic and the steel feed pipe
portion from the filler cap rusts on the inside
... so I now add a little of the golden nectar
as a protecter (but is also an octane
increasing fuel itself?) and also a little meths
to reduce the water in the fuels sold to us ...

But rather add diesel if you want to achieve what you are attempting to achieve...

There is some hidden wisdom in 2SO discussions:
Or rather peculiar similarities.
99% of the time, a guy that uses 2SO in a modern diesel engine also tosses while taking a bath.

I have just read a thread on another forum where a wet tosser (see reference above) claims 2so reduced carbon build-up on his exhaust manifold.
Then, when other knowledgeable members take him to town on this brave stupidity, foul play is called.
How else does one reply to a muppet other than to buy him another ice cream and take a video?
The part that concerns me, is the amount of evedentuary weight placed on his "facts". From a scientific point of view, hell from a professional point of view, one can only come to one conclusion: He uses statistics as a drunk uses a lamp post - for support rather than illumination.

I was merely stating the obvious.

Excellent best description I have seen on the 2SO user mentality yet.
It also describes the pissyness they show when called out on their nonsense postings, aka wankers.
Well done sir!

If you want to see the difference in lubricant properties between 2 strike oil and something like chain saw lube, put the 2 stroke in the chain saw lube tank.
Use the chain saw, and then go buy a new chain and blade , I have actually seen this.
And no it was not me
