Ok all of you 2-strokers, what is your choice of Pre-Mix Oil?

I have been using Golden Spectro ever since I had the bike and have never had any issues. I have a lot of friends that run the traditional Yamalube and have been happy with that as well.

I've used Yamalube since day 1. My '02 is still on the original top end. No problems ever

Used to use Super M for all my dirtbikes and banshee. Switched to Klotz R50 just for the hey of it.

Alky conversion coming up...so it's going to be benol all the way...gotta love the smell of alky and caster oil burnin' away!!

A friend of mine is sponsored and races for the local Honda/Suzuki shop. Swears by Golden Spectro...and he can run any oil they carry on the shelf.

I used it in my old LT250R back in the day...no issues.

AMSOIL all the way baby!!

Alky boys....alky. 2.00 a gallon, and you get a 5 to 15% increase in performance....(of course you go through twice as much...but, oh well...smile.gif )

we've used yamalube since 1994. And the motor is still running fresh. But we just rebuilt it to get some more performance but it wasnt broke or anything.

Spectro Gold for the Premix

Yamalube for the oil injector

Another successful trip on Spectro Gold...still the same plugs, still the same top end smile.gif

Amsoil @ 100:1 is what I have ran in all my 2 Smokes for years and years and have yet to have an oil related problem. My ole TRX250R had the same plug in it for over 4 years as well as the top end. I run Amsoil in everything I own from Leaf Blowers to Quads.

Good stuff for sure.

Klotz supertecniplate its real nice...
doord521
When I had my ATC 250R All I ran was Klotz
dieselpowered
I have used Klotz before, can I tell you it is better than Golden...nope.

Probably like anything else...with the type of riding I do, probably not a huge difference between any of the brands.
