cheers

I use 55cc to 5lts thats 90:1 & for

the road 62.5cc that's 80:1.

Hope this is of some help!

Me personally i use 75ml to 5 litres of fuel

i like to see smoke occasionally

it proves there

Scorpa SY250. Castrol TTS fully synthetic and 80mls to 5 litres of fuel. Works ok for me.

I would be nervous about only using 55mls.. that said I've never tried it.

i use 80ml of tts to 5 litres of super unleaded! Works good! I always like what bigwig says on here in that there is no competition for using the least amont of oil! And for me where I am not always hard on the throttle I feel this is plenty!

B the way this is for a gasgas 125!

Cheers then!

well we have just returned from the charltons, what a nice sunny ride!!! my mate banged 70-80 in every 5 l can, everyones bike ran well, same again tomorrow me thinks!!!

Isn't that Slapewath, at the Charltons?

Have always used a 50:1 ratio, mineral oil (Pennzoil) - never had a problem, I wouldn't like to mix any leaner. Synthetic works very well on motocross/racing motors where the motors are at high RPM, trials motors don't usually run up to ultra high revs for long periods of time.

yea, just over the road. think the pubs called the fox & hound.

80 to 1 is good 100 to 1 is best for novice riders that never rev, but 50 to 1 makes me sick if I'm behind them waiting to ride.

i ran my beta at 100:1 but i run my sherco at 80:1 been thinking of doing the same with my sherco (100:1) it smokes plenty at 80, i mix 1.5 gallons of 93 oct. pump gas with .5 gal. of vp red racing fuel, mostly for the good smell but i like to be right around 98 to 100 octane, it worked great for my beta even though people say 100:1 is nuts for a 99 techno, so it should work fine in my 06 sherco 2.9, i rev my bike quite a bit and it never let me down or acted up, but it is always best to mix a bit more oil than not enough!..............................john
