Ok then.

For those of us who have to "mix" our fuel......

What is your favourite oil to use with your petrol and why???

I like TTS for the smoke when the engine is cold and it has that lovely 2Stroke smell I grew up with.

But for clean burning I like Maxima- but costs more than TTS

Have tried plenty of others but those are the 2 most common I use.

Anyone ever get desperate and buy the cheap oil from the ONLY dodgy servo that you could find still open-(that still costs more than TTS I might ad!! Laughing Laughing ) I think the bottle says: "suits AIR-COOLED mopeds and motor-scooters up to 250CC" Then you go F@#k I have a WATER COOLED 350!!!
But you buy it anyway Laughing laughing Laughing laughing Laughing laughing Laughing

I buy my dirty sh!tty oil from the only servo still open, its mobil oil and its not cheap. Cost me $76 but its fine as far as I'm concerned. Its the only stuff I can get in town and it smokes when its cold and smells just right Smile

Lots of people run Motul. We run Torco, top stuff, no smoke, everything is nice and clean looking when we do rebuilds (exceot for the time i seized my bike) Surprised And it is cheaper than Motul. Smile

having built hundreds of two stroke race motors in more than 30 years in the trade, cant go past Motul 800T, use it in my son 2 Blaster and son 3 very modified 11000 RPM LT80, [ has some serious 'feet per minute' piston speed ] never had a failure due to lube in either of these. Wish we had 800T years ago. Only downside, it doesnt smell as good as R30

coverage and viscosity on internals after it's been fuel burn't is ths best
crank cylinder wall and condition of rings etc etc

I Know a bloke who told me about this other bloke who knows his stuff and he said to use Valvoline performance outboard full synthetic 2-stroke oil. Cheap as chips at about $23 for 5litres from supercheap and its the stuff thats good enough for big dollar outboard ski boat engines. Been using it and it works and smells a treat. my wallets looking good too!

Somebody is thinking!!!!!

However you guys would also need a 4Stroke section to be fair?????

I certainly dont want to get involved in an 'us & them' scenario (such as the 2Stroke VS 4Stroke poll)

What do the rest of the 2Stroke riders think??

Technical, tips, techniques, 2Stroke ride days.......... mmmmm I can smell it already and picture the smoke haze!!! "ring-ning-ning"
