Tank liners can fail and cause more issues later on. Tank liners or intended as a last resort for old tanks that have rusted through.
Man, I need to start listening to my buddy. He gave me the exact same advice on the oil and gas mixture.

Thanks for all of your help, Jerry. I’m still glad I purchased the bike, but was definitely wondering if I should have just financed a new Kawasaki Ninja1000 vs paying cash for this bike when I was out there at 11pm last night cursing the rust.
