So, in reality the motor was getting less oil.
You would be getting slightly less gasoline, and that amount more in oil. This will lean out the bike just very slightly, probably less than the jetting would be able to correct (in other words if you went richer it would be more rich now than it was lean from adding more oil). I am not using Amsoil now because of the temperature problems with full synthetic, but spring I will be going back at 40:1. Right now I am using Lucas Semi at 32:1.
