    Motor-Up does it work? has anybody used it / knows a lot about it?

    looking into buying some motorup for my bike because it is being absolutely impossible to start on these cold mornings

    i literally have to rollstart it before it goes....

    new battery so it's got plenty of juice winds over fine but it just runs and i have to hold heaps of throttle on and it sits at if i'm lucky 2 grand won't let you rev it up and just cuts the moment i go off off the revs

    and then eventually will let you rev it after a long time on the starter this is why i generally just resort to roll starting

    now they say the infomercial it sticks to the parts blah blah and helps start engines on cold mornings.

    my question is will it help start my bike or is it just marketing bullcrap....

    i watched the whole infomercial... and yes they froze two motors in blocks of solid ice and yes only the motorup one would start but at no point did they say how since it sticks to engine parts and is heavier than water....how this helps fire her up on a cold morning

    the bike is garaged but the garage gets just as cold as outside.

    so yeah looking into motorup and was just wondering if anybody had used it in thier cage or bike or whatever .

    any information about this product and if it works would be much appreciated

    you 'eard it from the man...

    something is wrong if you resorting to putting a can of fluid into your engine that isn't oil into the crank case, or gas into the tank...

    come to think of it, while you are at it get some STP fuel additives, they've got carb cleaner, Horsepower Boost, Octane boost - the worlds your oyster, or you could just take it to a workshop and get them to look at it.

    its probably a problem caused through lack of compression after your dodgy piston replacement job. only runs seemy okay after it warms up and things expand a little

    motorup wont fix that.
    gone.

    That stuff in the cans is useless. Your bike is water cooled is it not? That's your problem, you're using the wrong sort of water. It's letting the cold get through to the cylinders.

    What you need is specially Molecularly DynoPositivated water. It's specially treated so the interspacial molecular interfaces of the water become dynamically enhanced, inducing a positive thermal gradient. So your motor stays warm even on these cold mornings.It's scientifically proven .

    Very hard stuff to get, but, as it happens I have been able to access a supply. Only $65 per litre INCLUDING GST, a bargain at twice the price, but wait , there's more, a SPECIAL DISCOUNT of , not 5%, not 10% , a WHOLE 15% to KB members ONLY. Special conditions apply

    PM me with your orders. P&P extra. Cutting my own throat I am.

    iridium plugs probably going to cost you about $15-20 each. and probably wont fix your problem any better than cleaning and properly gapping your existing plugs

    seconded, imagine how much $$$ you can make off that shit by selling it on trademe, just send the be people de-ionised water so that it wont corrode their radiator.

    and once you've made a cool grand off it dissappear from the face of the earth (or just ditch your tradme account and move to another netcafe)

    Can you send it in the dehydrated from to save on P & P ?
    I can reconstitute it with de ionised water when it gets here, would that work?
