Oil ratio

[96_banshee_96]

I was wondering if this was correct. The guy at the stealership sold me some shit called golden spectro premix concentrate. It says on the back it gives you 52.1 every 5 gallons. I could of swore you guys ran a 32.1 My motor is stock does this ratio sound right.

I run 32:1

[96_banshee_96]

So if I run this 52.1 what is it going to hurt I already mixed it. I said to the dip shit working at the dealership I needed to run some shit at 32.1 and he said WHY!!! I was like I dont fuckin know because all the people with banshees told me to mix at 32.1 And he was like Ohh you dont want to do that.

[bansh03]

I would stick with the 32:1 :thumbsup:

[Bansh-eman]

i know there a re a few oils that you can mix 50:1 60:1 and what not but im not sure if this is one of them or not...

 

just stcik with good old yamalube R2 36:1....

[RoostRocket]

I run mine 50-1 and it has never ran better. I dont know if its right but it works great for me... :biggrin:

Damn I think im going to try just a little bit of what I just mixed. I spent $13 for gas amd $9 for this lil ass bottle of the mix so im not going to just throw it out.

yeah but how much r you gonna spend if you seize up your motor because it didnt get enough lubrication?because the oil in your fuel is the only lubrication it gets.. i think i would run 32:1..good luck

I run 28:1 with gas and alky

I run Klotz oil 50:1 with regular or 50/50 mix (race gas and 93 octane) in my 88 R and in my banshee....never any issues and the R has made some trips to the dune and I don't just baby them around either. If the back of the container says you can run 50:1 in an atv then run it AMSOIL is the same too, I used to run that 50:1 with no problems, I trust that the oil company that sells high grade race oil knows a lot more about it than I do. Just my 2cents.

Shit I guess it doesnt matter now. The bish doent want to fire up and I have no clue what could be wrong.

[BansheeRider71]

Man i would say 32:1 just to be safe, but thats me.

I run Yama-Lube 2R at 32:1 with 91 pump gas

I Run 40:1 With Klotz

well i think i would be more inclined to run what the manufacture says to run then what the oil company says to run..just my .02

when yamaha states to mix 32:1 they are "covering" them selves for if the operator is using cheep oil. Oil technology has come along way and with full synthetic and special blends there simply is not the need for more oil to have the SAME or better lubrication of the cylinders. If the MX racers are running race oil mixed 50:1 in the stressful conditions they put their quads through is ok then I feel safe running mine the same way Also, it is MORE benefical for the oil company to tell you to mix 32:1 because then you are using more oil per tank of gas which in turn would have you buying more oil and making that same oil company more money so why would they tell you to run less oil if it isn't 100 percent ok. Also I believe on the back of AMSOIL, at least the high-performance amsoil, it states to run it 50:1 and I believe it also says that it is gauranteed to "be safe" or something on that order.
