What is the right fuel mixture for the Banshee?

 

if it's stock, the manual recommends 24:1, although everyone i've ever talked to -- and myself -- go with a 32:1 mixture. go to 24:1 if it's new or you're breaking in a new engine.

 

I'm running 32:1 right now, but I am going to experiment with 40:1, and see how that works. I guess a lot of people mix 40:1 with no problems.

 

I have been running 50:1 with yamalube R the last two years with no problems but... I am considering 40:1 because yamalube R is not 100% synthetic. I have alot done to my banshee and am not ready to rebuild just yet so, I'll probably switch before my first ride in two weeks.
