What Mix And Ratio Are You Running?

Featured Replies

hi all, after many different local opinions i was just wondering what those on here are using?

Thanks in advance... mike

Putoline MX5 @ 50:1 in my 1977 Sherpa 250,and 40:1 in my 1983 Husqvarna CR250.

Have a look here 'Clicky Linky'

but t-shock has a valid point, if it's an older bike you might want to stay away from the lighter mix?

thanks.....bike is a 96 fantic section 250, the guy i bought it from was running 40:1......i was told by the local shop 50:1......and mike from the trials shop in ny told me 80:1 (seems to have a damn good reputation so i ordered the castrol synthetic he recomended and will give it a go...even though i am a bit weary) :(

Mike knows what he is talking about. But i will add that a bit has to do with just how hard you are running the bike. Just general playing about at the trials stuff, you should be fine. Running it harder like an enduro bike would be different due to extended high revs.

I have run as high as 100:1 in the watercooled bikes for years if just putting about. :(
