Why? You run a different map? Just curious.

some of the nasty race fuels can really gum things up if you don't flush/clean the fuel system after use.

Yeppas, You would be surprised to see what stays in your intakes and head after running different fuels for a couple days...

Take a look at the pics on this thread and you'll get an idea what I'm referring to https://www.hayabusa.org/forum/racing-technical/117730-mr9-safety.html

So would you wait until the gas is gone then just dump seafoam in it? I saw the video of putting it straight into the vacuum hose... how would you do that on a busa?

I too have used it for years on everything I own that burns gas and never a problem.

I'd mix it with gas in the % shown on the can...

I thought you were talking about painting your Busa seafoam green! My input was going to be a definite NO. Whenever I think of Seafoam green I think about a hideous Audi TT colour. Not good on a Busa either.

follow mixing instructions plus about 5%. i like to go a little heavy as it cleans better. put the sea foam in at gas station right before you fill that way you get a good mix. Dont be alarmed if tyhe exhaust smells a little different for a bit.

I use it on all of my vehicles. In the tank every 6 months, and into the motor via vacuum hose once a year. I also use seafoam deep creep (spray) sprayed into my throttle bodies once a year. It's an awesome product.
