I wonder if Gas Gas will form an alliance with a oil supplier like the big brands have?

Amsoil dominator 50:1. Price point is good and piston and jug look good.

Amsoil Dominator 50:1 for the last couple years. Before that BelRay H1r. Amsoil is cheaper and burns better than the H1r. We ride the desert with a lot of WOT no issues.

We have been using Klotz R50 for about 6 years now. It has an insane film strength. I am amazed how well everything is oil coated upon tear down. Does spooge quite a bit if you are not on the pipe due to high flash point but it provides great protection and smells amazing!

I've been using Maxima Premium 2 since I bought my bike last year. Since then I have run the bike completely out of coolant, burned it down while climbing a steep return road in the top of fifth gear. The bike died. Melted the piston, melted the spark plug turned the o-ring on the head to dust and started melting the head but didn't sieze. Everything still had a sticky film on it upon tear down. So, even though it doesn't smell as good as the other oils, I'm gonna stick with it.

Haha! You got me. Okay. Real reason. My great grandad used to use it to clean his old hunting rifle. Well, he ran out! So he used some worthless gun oil. Well, he couldn't hit anything after that. He went hungry for a week trying to git some beaver. Nothing! Well, finally he figured, "Must be the oil!" So he picked up another container of trusty Premium 2 from his honest and reliable local Maxima dealer. Well, long story short, after that, he was drowning in beaver!

So what it comes down to is, if you wanna get the beaver, use premium 2.

...and that's good enough for me.
