What premix do you guys use?

[YZX]

Yamalube, $12.00, best value but smokes a lot. Overall, good oil.

Lucas oil 2 cycle land and sea, $15.00, great oil but creatse a lot of spooge.

Belray MC1, $12.00 for a small bottle. Best oil I've ever used but costs way too much.

Im sticking with yamalube. What oils do you guys use and how do you like it?

[YZX]

When I bought my bike, the guy also gave me this stuff called torco. I want more of it because this stuff was great. I just don't know where to get it.

[SnowMule]

VES Gold! The original stuff smelled faintly like strawberries. The Plus stuff doesn't really have a smell.

Top off the oil bottle under the hood, then throw a splash into the tank to lube the top-end.

But this is for my no-wheeler. ?

My buddy runs Lucas no spooge at all very clean burning for cheap oil. I run maxima k2, great stuff but pricey

[gimped up]

I run lucas oil never let me down

[72degrees]

Motul 800 Factory Line double ester. 33:1, smokey and spoogey, but the YZ250 survives my lad revving it to the max. Expensive, but for what we do you don't get through much.

[motoxvet]

Lucas. Quite easy to find and a reasonable price. Even use it in an old DS bike with oil injection.

[avocasingletrack]

Dominator and AvGas . 32:1 in the 125 , 45:1 in the 250

[YZX]

I running lucas right now and its a great oil but im running it really rich which is why I have a lot of spooge. I have a unopened bottle of yamalube that im using after my lucas is finished. Anyone know where to get torco?

[dukeryder]

Pretty much used 'me all.

Golden Spectro was my go to oil for a long time; when I lived in the North East. Tried Maxima SuperM for a little while, just didn't like the stench of the residue it left in the pipe. Switched over to Amsoil Interceptor and it was the first oil to foul a plug in my bike! But it wasn't the oil's fault per se; I mixed it at 50:1 per the bottle. As soon as I went back to 32:1 I never fouled a plug again, the oil produced minimal spooge and didn't leave a stinky carbon residue like the Maxima superM did.

I'm about to try out the Maxima 927 in a bike I just picked up. Back in my Karting days, Castor was all anyone used because it offered the best protection over anything else.

I run Amsoil Dominator.. the difference it's made over running cheaper stuff has been amazing.

Cheaper oils: when I did a top end on my old Gas Gas, the power valve cover had over 1/16 inch of carbon deposits cooked onto it that wouldn't come off completely.

Dominator: just did my KTM's first top end done after 125 hours of riding, not a single deposit was caked anywhere on the power valve system. The Dominator keeps it clean, runs extremely well, and extends the life if your piston/rings. Plus it's competitively priced. Can't go wrong with that.

I'll give dominator a shot once im out of my lucas and yamalube.

[avocasingletrack]

Im sure any of the popular full synthetics are fine. The better ones make less ash

Ran a bottle of Lucas through my bike, so far so good. Hardly any spooge or smoke, cheap and available at O'Reilly's.

[YZX]

Any of you guys ever use these oils? The ones meant for weed whackers. Im asdumimg the one with the dirt bike is meant for dirt bikes.

[YZX]

Btw, anyone try royal purple? Seems good.

[adam728]

Maxima super m injector is one of my "go to" oils. Easy to find, decent price, no spooge. Sort of stmbled into it, as the dealer only had the injector version one day, I hqd been running standard Super M. Found for my riding (trail) that the injector was much cleaner.

I have been running amsoil interceptor for a while now. Really clean oil. Reading piston wash is hard because the piston is nearly spotless after 32 hours, despite running my normal ratios and jetting. I did just lose a crank bearing though. Initial thoughts are dirt past filter, not oil filter. I hope tomorrow to split the engine and get a good look.

lucas, its at a nearby O'Reily''s
