Bansh-eman Posted January 26, 2010 Report Share Posted January 26, 2010 When I ran Yamalube, I was paying around 7 dollars for a bottle. It could be picked up at almost every motorcycle shop in town. No one carried Klotz. When I switched to Alky, I had to get my oil from Sandtoysunlimited unless I wanted to order it online. So add shipping and the cost for oil was looking around 15 bucks for a bottle. (plus or minus depending on where it was being shipped to.)

Bansheeb0y5505 Posted January 28, 2010 Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 Maxima Super M, Klotz Supertechniplate, and Mobile1 synthetic (sadly discontinued..) Yamalube is shit. I ran in in mine and my fathers once, worst oil I ever used. Smoked up a storm and fouled up really quick if you weren't on the throttle. I never touched it again. One time havoline was the only oil available.. so I ran it the one time. Believe it or not, it runs 10x better then with the yamalube.

jbooker82 Posted January 28, 2010 Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 i just cant see running 32:1 with any oil, especially yamalube. isnt 32:1 the recommended ratio by yamalube? thats a lot of fucking oil to be putting in the cylinders. Yamaha actually recomends running Yamalube R2 at 24:1. If yamalube isnt avalable then there is another oil they recomend at 20:1. Thats a lot of oil.

Building my First Posted January 28, 2010 Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 Here in Southwest Michigan there is a major produce economy. When the senoritas come up they like me to pack their ass crack with straight lard. 5 gallon bucket's only like $40 @ Walmart! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bansheesandrider Posted January 28, 2010 Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 i just cant see running 32:1 with any oil, especially yamalube. isnt 32:1 the recommended ratio by yamalube? thats a lot of fucking oil to be putting in the cylinders. as far as spending more for a "top shelf" oil, thats not really true. yamalube and klotz 32 ounce bottles are 8.99 and 10.99 respectively. by the time you dump that recommended 32:1 yamalube in your bike, you couldve bought the klotz and run it at 50:1. there is absolutely a difference in oils or youd see every drag racer, mxer, hillclimber etc running yamajunk. The owner's manual that came with my 89 when I bought it new says Yamalube at 24:1. Yamalube is junk oil, I lost a crank running Yamalube at 24:1, not counting all the plugs that I fouled out. I learned my lesson and switched to Klotz, first Benol and then I switched again to the R50, and I have never lost a crank or top end running Klotz at 40:1.

camatv Posted January 28, 2010 Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 gas bike wally world outboard TCW3 certified oil. ( yes really) or whatever brand that is at o'reilley's thats outboard oil.. 36-1 alky Klotz super tech. 36-1 if the havoline ran so good why did you stop using it?? just cause it wasnt sold at a "motor cycle shop" means its junk?

If yamalube isnt avalable then there is another oil they recomend at 20:1. Thats a lot of oil. thats fuckin ridiculous. so it would actually be cheaper for you to run klotz at a much leaner fuel/oil mixture than it would be to run yamalube at 24:1. 20:1? would the thing even run?!

You had a leak or wrong jetting or something then. There is no way on earth running any premix oil at 24:1 that it was the cause of a bearing failure. I and many others have ran Yamalube for years with no issues. And We run it at 36:1 Everyone is entitled to thier opinion, but you are passing garbage info IMO. Fouling plugs has nothing to do with what brand oil your running. It is your jetting. If you kept fouling your plug, then you needed to lean your motor out. Plain and simple.

Plain and simple. so youre saying that an extra rich fuel/oil mixture will have no bearing on how well the plugs burn it off? i dont believe that for a second. if what youre saying is true, then i should be able to run a fuel/oil mixture at 5:1 and it will have no affect on the plugs or how well the mix is burnt off.
