pindie Posted November 23, 2011 Report Share Posted November 23, 2011 What is the verdict on the best castor oil? Forget cost and avilability, we are talking clean running oil (if your jettings on the money) with the best smell. Sad I know but as my riding is guff my bike might as well stun me with a gorgeous smell. I've used A747 with no complaints but I read plenty about Maxima 927. Any good?

To be honest, I am not sure this is the best stuff to run in a trials bike. I tried the 927(yes I love the smell too)but found some real hard carbon buildup in the exhaust that was rediclously difficult to remove. I stopped using it before I ruined a mid and muff. The full synth stuff just seems to stay softer and flow better through the exhaust, specially if you get some heat init from time to time to keep things clear.

pindie Posted November 27, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 27, 2011 What seems to be a common issue is this spooge phenomena. The residue you had would be unburnt oil/fuel build up. This is common when using any fuel and oil mix. Trials bike run fairly cool and at tick over a lot so this can be a problem. Did you try dropping the needle a clip or two to lean it off?
