I have always run 40:1 and it does just fine. Mine is built, but I'm sure it will be fine on a stock machine too. There is not really just one "good" oil. I always run Klotz Super (the red sweet smelling stuff) and it does just fine. Something like Maxima Super M or Castor 927 will do fine also. Just be sure you don't have 2 different types of oil in the same mixture and once you find what you like, stick with it. It's better to be consistent with oil brand/type then switching all the time.

Klotz all the way. It costs more, but the best and toughest you can get. I personally run 32:1, but 40:1 helps cut down on oil usage some. You just have to make sure to change your jetting if you change oil ratios. The oil will displace some gas and will make it run leaner or richer. Once you get it set stick with it. Bubba

Castor 927, 36:1 ratio. I have never had any problems or excessive carbon build up.
