look its a lot of words to read over and over, if your a weekend rider and you wont it to last use the 25:1 ratio. you my have to change the plug now and then. use std plug ,not the fancy ones .

.


That's where I reckon Grahams dripping or dry exhaust tip rule should be a good measure.
Regardless of the ratio selected, quality oil is good insurance and they should burn better without costing you power too.
That way you are really getting the best of both worlds.
If it burns clean without costing you power, you're not swapping plugs regularly and your exhaust is not dripping... then like 4stroker said why not chuck a bit more in for extra insurance and engine life.

I still wouldn't go under 32:1 but then maybe I can't hold a Banshee on the pipe all day to keep it clean like you guys can.

I've hardly ever sit on one, but did a couple of laps of speedway last meet on a mates 350.
Bloody wierd things if you are so used to 4 strokes.
Really good fun though. More 4 stroke boys should swap bikes with a 2'ey mate just for blast.

Graham Bell is an aussie and is widely known all over the world for bein a 2 stroke guru.

i know a guy who has built the fastest rotax powered formula 500 in australia and he regards grahams bells books as bible
