Sure you can. Bike shops still have it. I put about a capful into my
motorcycle gas tanks every so often just so I can smell it--always reminds
me of racing in the sixties. A little bean oil, my Norton Commando or
Vincent, and a twisty road on a crisp day--there are few things better,
and since the above recipe makes you feel like you're nineteen again you
can do some of them right afterwards.
Such as eat a big breakfast. You thought I was inferring something else?

The ancient solution was to use the Castrol vegetable sweet smelling 50
weight racing oil, so that the mineral oils would not deteriorate the
seals.
I am not sure if you can buy this stuff anymore.
