does it matter which type of 2 stroke i use, like for instance the cheap ones you get at the garage or the better one you buy from the bike shops?

You get what you pay for.

Use a cheap oil and you will be rebuilding sooner.

Please read the main website and search the forum. This has been discussed a thousand times.

Sure they do Wink

The racebike gets XR77 which is silly money (£13+ a litre) even with forum members discount from Race Lubricants but it does so few miles it's irrelevent.

The road bike gets Hein Gericke fully synthetic race oil, it's as high a grade as you can buy, is fine for either premix or the pump and is £6.39 a litre, it's allegedly Motul 710 in a cheap bottle.

Really anything fuly synth is fine.

Comp 2 injector plus in mine, it aint cheap but used it in my aprilia rs50 and took it to cornwall and back in one weekend with no probs. It must be good stuff for that little motor to last 7 full hours of riding in each direction on all the A and B roads. Cool
