I have just purchased a 92 250 Quadracer and am wondering what oil would be the best to use?
In the handbook it states a mixture of 20:1, with the new fully synthetic oils should I increase this, to say 32:1?

older bike like that i would run a castor based oil like Maxima 927 castor (thats what i put in my 250R trike)

not that it realy matters if you use castor or not......it just makes it smell nice laughing


but you can run anything from outboard oil to motul

on the mixtures i would run 32:1
