2 stroke mix ratio. 2002 CR 250

[rzr33]

What mix ratio are you running in your CR 250, and also brand oils you running??

[Atieri]

Depends on how and where you ride. woods, mx track ETC. I ride like a lunatic, so it's 16:1 for me and castor 927.

 

I also use 16:1 because i'm doing an experiment with blow-by and wear.

I run 32:1 in all my 2 strokes.  (94cr144, 06cr250)

Klotz Motorcycle TechniPlate mixed at 32:1 with AV gas.

You really can't go wrong with 32:1, easy to mix, and lubes & seals just fine, and any good name brand oil will do, I just wouldn't recommend weedeater or marine oils, not that they wouldn't work just for peace of mind

ive used it for years in all of my 2 strokes,i like the way it smells and burns cleaner than klotz and some others,its a lil pricey which is why ive tried some others but I always come back to the purple,i ve had great results with top and bottom end wear

Ill have to try it, I use castor 927 now, it works great but I hate the smell, my stepbrother uses golden spectro, that stuff smells great haha, I'm gonna have to try some of the royal purple, thank you for the feedback

[Redlined]

32:1 Maxima K2, been trying Lucas lately too

[choppertown]

40:1 maxima 927 in the summer and K2 40:1 in the winter.

Why do you think a CR250 requires special ratios or oil brands? I would say most any 250 rider chooses the same selection you'll see posted here.

Then you get the occasional fellow mixing @ 16:1 and litterally smoking the competition. I can fill my neighborhood with a thick plum of vegetable oil smoke in less than 10 minutes.

I am going to be using the Honda HP2 , and I just thought I would ask. Sometimes you get some good info out of why to use a certain product so I asked the question. Thanks for all of your feedback.

[H4L]

I've been using HP2 32:1 for the last 15 yrs. with no issues.  

[Atieri]

How long does your bottom end last @ 32:1 ? I can probably get 5 years on mine @ 16:1

I'm still on the original bottom end of my 02 CR250.   Also buy & sell bikes thru the years & usually have at least 3 bikes in the stable so it keeps the hrs. down on them.

I've never had a bottom end failure. I've played with ratios between 24:1 and 32:1.

 

16:1 is overkill unless you are racing 125cc shifter karts.
