Have any one else on here ever used polin pro oil? iI have used yamalube (great stuff) silkolene (great) also lucas which is what iam using now because they support the sport! when i used the polin it was as good as anything i have ever used just stopped using it because was on thumpers for 10yrs .

I would like to also know what people are running, I am currently running Klotz R50.
-
silkolen, burns really clean
-
Putoline MX5 or Motorex CrossPower 2T.
Both are great.
-
Amsoil Intercepter 40:1. 125SX, YZ250, YZ285, and 200 EXC never a score mark or build up or even scrubbin the hone marks off.
-
Maxima 927 Castor. Just cause it smells AMAZING !!!!!
-
Pre-Mix is a highly personal choice. You will get more responses to questions like this you want to read :) .
I use YamaLube 2R because there is a Yamaha/Polaris ATV & Snowmobile dealer 5 minutes up the road and he gives me deals usually.

Mix that in with some VP fuel and you have a manly cologne. :D

I was using Klotz Benoil, but switched to Lucas recently, The price, positive results with their other products and their support of the sport was my reason for the switch.
I have found that the Lucas doesn't produce as much smoke or as thick of a spooge as the Klotz, even at 32:1, I was running the Klotz at 50:1.
The Spooge also cleans up easier, I wash my bike with Shout (laundry detergent) and the Lucas spooge hoses right off, whereas the Klotz would take contact cleaner and some scrubing.
The lucas is $6 a quart opposed to $9 a pint for Klotz, the drawback is that it doesn't smell like Klotz or castor, but I don't ride behind myself so whatever.
I got 80 hours on my last top end(KX250 woods riding)using klotz at 50:1, I will let you know how my new top end does with the klotz at 32:1, I pull off the intake and measure the endgap of the rings every 20 hours.

I used to run Bel Ray MC1 or H1R, then I went to Caster 927. I ran Spectro for a while to.
-
Switched from Bel ray MC1 to Maxima Super M recently. The super M seems to burn alot cleaner. I run turbo blue leaded 110 octane half and half with premium pump gas also.
Ran elf 2t a long time ago, it was by far the best oil i've used but I can't seem to find it anywhere.
-
Amsoil Interceptor right now simply because the place I work at sells it and I get it at half the price of my previous $21 l Motul 800.I think pretty much any of the name brand oils are good,and most likely come from the same vat.There's a slim chance any of these Oil companies have there own refineries :)
Yeah,I know,they all start with base stock then add their own "special ingredients" and blend them in a proprietary way.Uh-huh. ::)
-
I am an Amsoil freak....Interceptor 40:1 in my Kawi....Hell I use Amsoil in my weed whackers, and leaf blowers. hahaha
-
I have used Honda Pro Oils like HP2 and HP Trans oil with great results. Bel-ray is #2 and Maxima is #3. But its all in what you like or what works. Its mostly all about keeping your oil fresh and clean and taking care of your engine. All oils do a good job anymore. The only one i won't run is Klotz. We didn't have very good luck with Klotz unless it was in a snowmachine.

I run Total which is what Elf is called here.
Works great.
I have some Bel Ray H1R I'll try once I finish the mix I have.
I agree with ford (shit I didn't say that did I ) ;) all the name brands are good.

I agree with ford
I heard that. :D

Used to run Castrol R30, but it stains everything it touches....then I found Maxima 927, and yep, blower, weed eater, lawn mower all get tha same treatment. ;D
-
That's too funny.I've got oil for the chainsaw,weedwacker and mower but more often than not,bike gas is what I've got mixed up so they all tend to get motul or amsoil. ;D
-
O.k. I avoided even looking at this thread for days because they are so opinion based & sometimes end up in an argument. But this one seems fairly civilized. I personally use Motul 800. Best oil I've ever used & I've been running 2 smokes for close to 40 years. Just an opinion. I also put a dab behind each ear & a little around each arm pit before a night out at the local watering hole. Chics dig it. :D

Smell-wise,it's hard to beat Ipone.Made by Motul if I remember correctly but smells like strawberries-yum.
Fwiw,my wife doesn't dig anything bike related :(

Yep, the Motul smells very sweet in the bottle. I, knock on wood, have not fouled a plug since I started using it years ago. Was racing a PA state championship race at High Point & fouled a plug in the pits first thing in the morning. A guy walked over, handed me a bottle of oil & a business card. Said if you like it, call me. I did on both accounts. He sent me a case of gallon jugs for free, a T shirt & a pile of stickers. Been running it ever since.
