Hey Mightmouse, this might sound stupid but I've wondered before if there's a way to sort of, in a way, use your windshield wiper fluid reservoir for meth, but still use to it clean your windshield. Like, for lack of a better way of putting it, fabbing something to make it split, one side for meth and one side for windshield wiper fluid. Although when I think about it, that sounds kinda risky, don't want windshield wiper fluid accidentally leaking in and getting sprayed into the intake

Generally windshield wiper fluid is a methanol, but with dye in it.

i use mine for the windshield with pure meth going on about 6 years now, no problems (de-icing w/w fluid is nearly 50% methanol)

Its best to mount it well below the tank if able. I mounted mine on the rh frame rail. Made a mount bracket to hold it and the horns. Positioned it so that with my splash shied still in place I am able to make adjustments to it.

Also using the windshield fluid reservior.









And the location of the controler if intrested.

There's multiple different thoughts on whether to use 100% MeOH or to use a 50/50 mixture of MeOH and water. Coincidentally, some of the winter formula windsheild washer fluid is actually 50/50 water/ MeOH, so you could use that to wash your windsheild and not hurt anything.
