Reconranger ( concerning oil )
This question has come up in other forums, and I don't think we ever reached any conclusion. Their web site and advertising doesn't really say much about either the oil's chemistry or addtive package. You could try calling their technical service and ask a few questions. Also, seeing it is imported from Switzerland, it is likely that the price will be artificially high (just like a KTM).
What you want to look for is an oil that is motorcycle specific API SG/JASO MA. The SG insures that it has a descent anti-wear additive package (very important for your transmission), and the MA insures that it will not make your wet clutch slip.
Beyond that, there are three very different types of synthetics. The best synthetic formula is ester based, with some PAO thrown in for "balance". Personally, I run Redline, and Maxima Extra, Ultra, or 530MX...but these are all quite expensive.

Thanks for the response, that's what I have encountered also their website dosen't have any technical data at all I just may give them a call and see what they have to say. Also they say their 2 stroke oil is " no smoke " personally I would like to see mine smoke just for peace of mind. Once again Thanks.
