Cleaning the injectors

I have seen ultrasonic baths on e-bay, they usually sell for under $100.
I think the last time We got our car serviced, an injector clean was something like $90.
I was wondering whether an ultrasonic bath filled with an organic solvent would work well at cleaning fuel injectors?
My bike is EFI as well and it seems like a good idea to spend the money on a bath and do them all myself, plus it can be used for cleaning other little bits and pieces.
So.. Will an ultrasonic bath clean injectors properly??

The ultrasonic baths will clean the injectors properly but injectors need to be removed from vehicle to clean them and mostly u will need to replace a couple of gaskets here and there so the bath is not the only cost when cleaning injectors. Hope this helps mate

This stuff does work alright as i use it in my car to clear thing up a bit but if they r fairly clogged u will need to get them properly cleaned to get rid of residue cloggin the injectors. Cheers

If you use premium unleaded, it's got enough detergents in it that your injectors will probably never need cleaning.
