Ride Red and on 3 Posted October 29, 2005 Report Share Posted October 29, 2005 I just had a motor builder tell me he sees more failures from Castor 927 than any other oil and does not recommend it ( I use it). Does anyone use it and have you had any problems Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2twin350s Posted October 29, 2005 Report Share Posted October 29, 2005 i have run maxima 927 for 5 years. never had a engine failure. even after 500 hours on my pistons, there was still hone marks in the cylinders. it is good stuff. i run 44 :1 with pump premium gas.that stuff will seperate from the fuel in temps below 32 degrees. so watch out in the winter time after the gas has set. make sure you shake it up and remix it.

super88_banshee Posted October 29, 2005 Report Share Posted October 29, 2005 I use it and i don't have any problems! But it does smell really good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PassionRE Posted October 29, 2005 Report Share Posted October 29, 2005 927 is probably the best oil available, Ive used it for over 20 years. Just make sure to keep your cans shaken before fueling(everytime) and if the cans sit for more than a week shake them extra good. It also helps to run your carbs dry after your done riding for the day, otherwise you will be extra rich on oil the next time you fire up. 40-1 is more than enough protection with 927...Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bkabina Posted October 29, 2005 Report Share Posted October 29, 2005 I use the 927 and never had any problems.I mix 50:1.I have tried Neo T2 at 100:1 for a while but I don't like it because it gums everything up even at 100:1,The 927 is deffinately a cleaner burning oil.

alcoholbanshee Posted October 29, 2005 Report Share Posted October 29, 2005 I have used 927 for many years now! Never had a failure due to oil. In my opinion much better than the other stuff. What do they call it Klotz superringeater. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
