neonsurge Posted October 23, 2004 Report Share Posted October 23, 2004 (edited) I run at 80:1 and have heard of people who run at 100:1 According to John Stoodley over at GasGas USA, modern watercooled engines should be fine at 100:1 but I think I'd be constantly listening to the engine for peculiar noises if I ran my mixture that lean! Most people I know run 75-80 although 50 shouldn't do it any harm except maybe a bit smoky and higher risk of oiled plugs. Silkolene Comp-2's fine. I also recommend Ipone semi which has a lovely strawberry smell (yes, really!) Edited October 23, 2004 by neonsurge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beta boy Posted November 5, 2004 Report Share Posted November 5, 2004 well all a buggered ring will do is lose you power your engine is 2 stroke and that is why you use premic cause it lubes the bearings and ring unlike a 4 stroke where you have oil seperate in the engine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
