So, the fuel in my ZX6 has gone stale after two very long periods of no use (it's even ninteyfuckingeight) means that you are a cunt and correlation is not causation.
You dick.
Jam and tarts....

Is this a myth? If I dont ride for 3 months, does that make me a stale rider?

The GSXR (injected) will always start after sitting for months on whatever is in there.
The DR650 how ever seems to cook off the float bowl if not used for 3-4 days. Big single sucks a bit of juice out of battery so not worth cranking it over repeatedly.
Drain float bowl and little more and that feeds my lawn mower.
Used to have mate that did fish and chip delivery with two bikes, one used 91 other 96. Cant remember which one but the fuel would go stale faster than the other, as in days vs months...

It is the 96 or 98 that goes off (quite a lot) faster - those toluenes and other aromatics evaporate quickly

Fuck my dirt bike is scary on the road and I learnt to ride on an XR with knackered knobblies. I'd claim BS on that claim.
Gas can last well enough but some vehicles better than others. My high compression dirt bike runs like crap when it's cold until it gets totally hot. Then I worked out that if I bought fuel on the way to the ride it didn't happen. Fuel had lost it's light gases through plastic tank. Less detonation in the sand too.
But there's only one person qualified to talk on this subject I'm aware of and he's already spoken. It's not you by the way SM.
Don't you look at my accountant.
He's the only one I've got.

Gee and I thought fuel filters in the line were supposed to take that sort of stuff out. Wonder why I am paying extra for a filter then?Ahhh..actually
"If petrol is not stored in an air tight container then the process of oxidation occurs. Fuel that has been exposed to air flow will begin to look cloudy and get darker in colour. Sometimes you may even be able to see particles floating in the fuel if it is badly oxidised.
Once the fuel is in this state it is dangerous to add it to an engine as the fuel will form deposits in the fuel system. Fuel stored in a vehicle is not air tight – particularly in motorcycles and therefore these deposits can build up and affect the proper working of the engine".
...not so much of a myth huh
(note...they say if stored properly in air tight containers and at the correct temp and out of sunlight etc etc...5yrs! storage is possible with no oxidation)
...I would like to thank google for once again making me look far smarter than I actual is

You need to condition it with some water then run some yacht fuel through it for best results...

There's a joke in there about my wife.

Sitting around for months?

Opinions are like arseholes: Everybody has got one, but that doesn't mean you got to air it in public all the time....
