bansheerider420 Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 What's the best 2 stroke oil? and what fuel mixture should i use? Banshee is pretty much stock except for reeds and toomeys. Also need to change fluids in bike. Do i just need to change transmission fluid? And how many quarts do i need to buy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeNick Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 Your going to get 10 million 3 hundred and 42 different answers...Just use a good name brand oil and mix it correctly...I use Klotz Benol...Everyone uses somethin different. I use BELRAY in my tranny, I am a dumbass and should of used 10w30 Valvoline or similiar oil...Tranny holds almost 2 qt. I put in 2 qt myself..

bansheerider420 Posted June 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 (edited) Is Redline 2 stroke oil any good? I was thinking of mixing 40:1? So the tranny holds 2 quarts of oil? Edited June 23, 2009 by bansheerider420 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeNick Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 Redline makes good oil...Tranny holds 2 quart. Actually like 1.9 or something close..Put 2 qt in it..it will be ok. 40:1 or 32:1..I would mix any lower or higher than those ratios Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
treybird Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 castor 927 25:1 for breaking in new engine for me and yea 2 qt also Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spurdy Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 castor 927 25:1 for breaking in new engine for me and yea 2 qt also Actually a tranny running the stock clutch cover holds 1500 mL = 1.5 L = 1.585 qt. A modified clutch cover for a lock up clutch will hold a litlle more. SP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bansheerider420 Posted June 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 OK i'll just put the 2 quarts in the tranny. I love the smell of castor 927 oil. But local motorcycle 77shop don't carry it!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeamRealtreeHD Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 I am a firm believer in Klotz Supertechniplate... I ix all my motors 36:1 (18oz to every gallon). Castor 927 is also good, but we all know we can't run both lol. Those are the only two oils I will ever run, but Klotz gets the nod Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
locogato11283 Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 i run klotz at 50:1 in the cylinders and i run cheap ass advance auto parts 10w40 in the tranny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Castor 927 is also good, but we all know we can't run both lol. Those are the only two oils I will ever run, but Klotz gets the nod I used to run the 927 also. When I tore the engine down it seemed like everything was "gummy" as compared to the previous motor using the supertechniplate. I switched back and am just as satisfied as before with the Klotz brand oils! Just my opinion, I wouldn't run 2 qt in a tranny with a stock cover. 0.40 qt extra is a little too much for me.

TeamRealtreeHD Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 1.5-1.7 in the stock cover for sure.... I actually tested the clymer manuals recommendation for checking it last year (toom me a long time by the way)... I got 1.5-1.6 quarts when it finally stayed in the marked area of the dipstick on flat land. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
