I HAVE NEVER OWNED A 2 STROKE. I BOUGHT MY 2 YEAR OLD GIRL A USED PW50 THAT HAS TO HAVE THE GAS AND OIL MIXED. THIS IS SOMETHING THAT I HAVE NEVER DEALT WITH. WHAT IS THE MIX PERCENTAGES FOR A 2-STROKE OF THIS SORT. SORRY FOR THE DUMB QUESTION.

depends on what kind of oil you use....look on the bottle of oil, it will usually give a ratio per the oil makers specs

DOES IT MATTER IF ITS A 50CC BIKE OR A 250CC THE RATIO SHOULD BE THE SAME.

I've been mixing my Banshee 40:1 for years now, no probs.

It doesnt matter on CC's it matters on the bike, try to get a manuel that might have the mixture ratio

Just run it at around 40:1 it's only a 50cc that's going to be riden by a kid, it's not going to take much abuse, and the smaller the motor, the more durable they seem to be. I like to run my bike at 32:1 in the dunes. I tend to put a little more stress on the motor out there then in hardpack. So I'll run a little leaner then. But 40:1 is probably a good safe mix ratio. It does vary between oils, but not that much, unless you start running real expensive oil or special oils like Amsoil. They actually make an oil that they claim suped up snowmobiles are burning at 180:1...
Scary... but they say it's all good.

It puts more stress on the bike in the dunes because of the paddles and the hills, in hard pack you have nobbies and not as many hilss

I have a 2-stroke roto hammer/ breaker, She runs at 12:1!!!!!!!!!! She drinks the oil!

Just remember, too much oil is just as bad as too little. Too much oil will insulate the piston from the cyclinder walls and prevent it from transferring heat to the cooling system. The piston will "melt down" inside the cylinder.

I run a 40:1 mix in both my 40cc quad and my 250R. Works great in both bikes...

I dump the 16oz bottle oy Yamalube into my gas can. Fill to about 4 1/2 gallons.
No idea what the ratio is. I suck at math!

if you only put 4 gallons of gas it would be 40-1

So i'm runnin about 45:1. Too high?

if your plugs look fine leave it as is

Quart to 5 gal is fairly common mix...

The Pastor

11.5oz of mix and 5 gallons of gas is my mix

Sweet! I'm doing fine. My plugs look beautiful. I change em every other trip.

97 YZ250. 32:1 and still on the factory top end. Runs like the day I bought it. And I ride pretty hard.


Jason

128 oz = 1 gal.

16 oz to 4 gal = 32:1
16 oz to 4.5 gal = 36:1 <-----
16 oz to 5 gal = 40:1

damn I missed it by that much hahah

I guess I used to run my banshee at 32.1

does nobody buy a ratio-rite anymore. these things are gold people. dont rely on a bottle or a guess, get exact! GET... RATIO-RITE.

SHOP SMART........SHOP....S......MART

ive had three previous banchees and have one currently along with 2 50's for my kids all 2 stroke and i use the small bottle of bell ray oil to 5 gall of gas 50:1 and have very rarely fouled a plug and have had no problems.same with every quad guy i know

I THINK IM GOING TO GO WITH 40:1 AND SEE HOW THAT GOES. I'L TRY IT FOR A FEW WEEKS AND SEE HOW EVERYTHING LOOKS.
THANKS

i break ratio rites every other trip. good thing they're cheap.

I just dump 1 thing of MC-1 into 5 gallons of gas. It's a 50:1 mix.

I was told the synthetic oil would gum up my powervalve.
