Whoa... you're going to get a handful of opinions on this one... Kinda like what's better Honda or Yammiehaw...

I'd say, Mix per the manufacturers specs as that is how the oil was designed to be used... Choose a good quality oil, and go with it. Don't buy cheap oil and expect anything but cheap results.

Personally, I run nothing but Amsoil Series 2000 racing synthetic, but there are other good ones out there.

Regards,

Dollar, shows how much of a thumper man you really are. There's nothing wrong with it, just what you have. 32:1 is the best for the Suzuki, and like said before just use a good brand oil. I use Klotz and feel it is the best for me, but there would be many opinions. Maxima is great and Amsoil is too. Any good name of 2-stroke oil will be suitable. Many people dont understand the extreme tests that the oils must pass before they can be marketed.

How do you come up with 32:1 is best for the Suzuki, when they recomend 20:1?

20:1 is the play it safe mixture, also oil has gotten a lot better in the past 15 years. Mixing 20:1 is a waste of oil. Majority of people using castor based oils run 32:1 and many with synthetics may run 40:1

I don't think anyone was flaming. I myself, was looking for someone to explain why nobody runs 20:1 anymore.
