50:1 or 2% always good for me.

I run 44:1 amsoil interceptor. why 44:1 and not 50:1 like gasgas says? 50:1 seems like too high of a ratio, and that extra oil keeps me from thinking whether or not this thing is going to blow up if I hold it wide open going up a long, steep hill.

Easiest, no-brainer is 43:1. This equates to three oz. of oil per gallon of gas. Couldn't be simpler. But then again, i am quite simple.

Ditto for me. Amsoil Interceptor.

I plan to go to Amsoil next, only a little Mobil MX-2T left. It looks like the Interceptor is what I should use, but have you tried Dominator?

[Ud_luz]

Interceptor is formulated to keep power valves clean which seems to work. In all honesty I just trail ride and I could probably get by with the same ratio I use in my trials bike which is 80:1 without causing harm.

Dominator supposedly is for more severe use like racing.

I also like simple and run 3 oz. per gallon (43:1)

Same here. I'm a trail rider and turkey run guy. I'll pick up some Interceptor.

32 to 1 here. I would rather buy more oil than buy more engine parts.

Just wondering what you mean Steve?
I have gone from 32:1 in MTX (castrol), to 50:1 Motul 800.... jetted accordingly .
I did this as I thought the fuel air mixture was out due to there being more oil , less fuel etc etc.
The bike runs great and is recommended to run at 50:1.
My question is" who is right"?
I know it comes back to jetting correctly in the long run but as I found out twice, more oil does not necessarliy mean less heartache.
Correct me if I am wrong.
