oldbanshee Posted August 11, 2004 Report Share Posted August 11, 2004 I run golden spectro 50 to 1. No problems on a built motor so far. Have ran it in all of my bikes for years now with no prolbems either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BansheeBrian Posted August 11, 2004 Report Share Posted August 11, 2004 If completely stock run yamalube 32:1. It will keep the crank happy in the stock RPM range. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frocashmoney24 Posted August 11, 2004 Report Share Posted August 11, 2004 castor 927! i and many friends use it, and never had a blow up yet, and it smeels OoO so sweet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sredish Posted August 11, 2004 Report Share Posted August 11, 2004 castor 927! i and many friends use it, and never had a blow up yet, and it smeels OoO so sweet I also use Castor 927, great oil, just likes to seperate at 40 degree F and below, so if it's cold out then just shake the machine a little before you start and it will be alright.

MotulMonsta Posted August 11, 2004 Report Share Posted August 11, 2004 Motul 800 factory line. Bar none the best oil on the market. I run it at 32:1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeenyus Posted August 12, 2004 Author Report Share Posted August 12, 2004 hmm... i'll go for yamalube, someone have to say something about yamalube? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeChicharon Posted August 12, 2004 Report Share Posted August 12, 2004 Since this will turn into another oil argument ill throw in an unknown. Redline Racing Oil. Yes i use it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rescuejeff Posted August 12, 2004 Report Share Posted August 12, 2004 I run Maxima Super with a AV gas and super unlaeded kix with great results, at 36:1. Just another version of the same old oil debate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slowpokebanshee Posted August 14, 2004 Report Share Posted August 14, 2004 wow someone else uses redline besides me.... once again I will talk about how amazing it is you can use it on oil injection bikes, and pre-mix....(if you have kid bikes etc.) curious what ratio I run 50:1, 40:1 If I plan to run the hill a bunch....

Toomey Banshee Posted August 14, 2004 Report Share Posted August 14, 2004 I ran yamalube in my 99 since I bought her new. No problems what so ever. Ran 32-1 and am JUST rebuilding the top end now, 5 years of riding later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hamuel Posted August 14, 2004 Report Share Posted August 14, 2004 I use red line two-stroke racing oil 40:1. then Redline lightweight shockproof gear oil for the tranny. I think it smells almost as good ast castor 927 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fixitrod Posted August 14, 2004 Report Share Posted August 14, 2004 I use maima tundra R. It's actually a snowmobile oil. No seperation in cold weather and it's certified in europe and japan. They have a lot more stricked standards than the u.s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
