I think for normal maintenance-type use, about one ounce of Sea-Foam per gallon of gas is recommended.  You _can_ run a bit more than that, but the use there would be for winterization or extended storage.  I put my Shadow into hibernation, and I think I was running about 3 ounces of Sea-Foam for the 2.5 gallon tank.

I can't speak to any other fuel system cleaners, but too much of anything can't be too good.  A little bit of cleaner over a long period of time is probably better than a blast of cleaner over a tank or two.
