Sounds like its running very good...

kxpegger:
I warmed it up for about 5 minutes 6 months ago with the old gas in it but I have not ridden it since last October. With 500 parts becoming scarce I've gotten a little apprehensive about putting hours on it. Just put some new gas on top of the year old gas and it ran very good! Maybe the Red Line premix oil I use has some long term storage properties?

sandblaster:
Tom Morgan loves Redline products.
I use to run Redline but switched 10 years ago to Motul 800.
I had no issues with Redline,,
I think the Redline burns cleaner than the Motul..
But if your jetting is good you won't have issues with either.

kxpegger:
I've been using Red Line for over 15 years with no issues. It also has a very high flash point as far as synthetics go so I think that's a plus if the bike runs a little lean or on the hot side. Las Vegas can get a little toasty too! A lot of NHRA Top Fuel and Funny Car use Red Line racing oils.
