This has been covered many times, it basicly all boils down to everyone has an opinion. If you search the subject on here you can read about everyone's personal choice, and you will notice that they vary from the cheap shit with a picture of a lawn mower on it, to klotz (a popular choice on here). As far as full synthetic goes, yes it is good. You don't want to run it while you are breaking in your engine, but after that it is a good choice.

You are currently running what many consider to be the best with the Maxima. Why switch? If your bike is jetted correctly, you should never have an oil related problem with the motor.

 

If you're dead set on running the Redline oil, I've heard it's very good as well. A lotta drag racers use it.

I am wondering what is the best 2 cycle oil to use? i am currently using the Maxima Super m premix which is a synthetic blend.  Is the red line 2 cycle oil any good it is a full synthetic. Is it even  good to use a full synthetic?

I would keep using the maxima oil. I used redline for a while and switched to amsoil, I hade too many bikes fail with redline

i run klotz...i think that youll find that once people try an oil they stick with it.doesnt matter if its brand a, b, c or d. if they use it and they dont blow an engine up or anything then they consider it to be good oil. now on the other hand if someone blows a motor up using a certain type of oil then they usually blame the oil, and then dont use it anymore. im guessing thats where youll hear most of the bad remarks about whatever type of oil..

I would run pretty much any 100% synthetic oil. Your blends I would stay away from, mainly due to the fact that manufacturers are only required to add around 10% synthetic to qualify as a "blend", yet they mark the price up as if it were half synthetic. I currently use mobil 1 mx2t and would also consider amsoil, redline or klotz.

I use amoil saber mixed at 80:1 and like every other oil mentioned up here it does a great job in not letting the piston stick to the sides of the cylinder. Let's conscider this--- your main jet can only move X amount of fuel and oil mix, fuel is what cools the piston, not the oil, so if the mixture has more fuel and less oil moving through that jet, it stands to reason that your engine's internal components will run cooler. now before all the girls get their panties in a wad, I'm not saying anyone is wrong for their choice-----crap I can hear them bunch already. anyway, less oil-more fuel. there are some other points we could go into, but I know I'm going to be wiping noses for the next week over this. :confused:
